Personal Assistance
As an assisted living resident, you’ll have the independence you desire and a helping hand if you need it. We’re here to assist with such daily tasks as managing medications, showering and clothing selection, leaving you to seize each day with confidence. We can also help you move about the community and coordinate care with outside care providers.

Health and Wellness
With evidence-based programs and amenities like a therapy room and walking paths, you can be empowered to live the life you want and reach your health and wellness goals. Our My Life Story program allows you and your neighbors to connect over shared wisdom and life experiences. You can also participate in our B-Fit classes, which are part of a cutting-edge program that gives you fun social fitness experiences.

Lifestyle Services
From housekeeping services and convenient amenities to delicious meals served restaurant-style in our elegant dining room, you won’t have to worry about chores or other mundane tasks that interrupt your retirement. Instead, you can spend your days getting your hair done at the on-site salon, perusing the library or using our scheduled transportation for doctor’s appointments and excursions.

Home-Like Environment
You know our community is special as you climb the tree-lined lane to the top of a hill where our property sits surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains and overlooks the city of Salem. When you enter the foyer, you’re greeted with a grand staircase that sets the tone for the kind of elegant, upscale, comfortable home we want to provide for you.

Common Questions About Assisted Living

Assisted living communities are designed for seniors who need a little extra help with activities like managing medication, bathing and dressing. Residents usually have their own apartment that they can decorate as they wish and have access to community amenities like dining programs, social activities and more.

Skilled nursing communities are supportive environments that provide healthcare resources like physical, occupational and speech therapy. At Brookdale, our skilled nursing team provides round-the-clock nursing care seven days a week.

It’s okay if you don’t know which level of care you or your loved one needs. Our assisted living communities can do an assessment to determine the right amount of care for you.

Knowing when the time is right can be a little tricky since everyone’s circumstances are a little different. Generally speaking, assisted living is a great option for seniors who could benefit from assistance with the daily tasks of life, like personal grooming or managing medication. Community life is also ideal for seniors who want to live in a place that provides social activities with people in their same stage of life.

The cost of assisted living varies widely depending on where you live, the type of apartment you choose and the level of care you need. One of the benefits of living at a Brookdale community is that you only pay for the care services you need, which means you can almost always find something that fits within your budget. 

Medicare and other federal programs typically don’t cover the cost of assisted living. You will likely need to pay with personal savings, assets or long-term care insurance.

Some of our assisted living communities have different guidelines, but you are often welcome to bring personal belongings and furnishings to make your new space feel more like home. We always encourage our residents to personalize their apartment so it feels comfortable, inviting and relaxing.

We offer a variety of room sizes and floor plans so you can choose the one that’s right for you. While styles vary between communities, our apartments are designed to feel and function like a home, with kitchens, bathrooms and plenty of light from the windows. Couples can usually live in the same apartment, but it’s wise to check with the community first.

You are not required to have a car to live at one of our communities. We provide scheduled transportation services so you can run errands and make your appointments without dealing with the hassle of driving and parking. However, if you still want to drive, many of our communities allow residents to have cars.

Pets are an important part of the family, which is why our communities are pet-friendly. Be sure to check with your individual community before you arrive in case there are weight or breed restrictions. Explore our Pets page for more information on pet-friendly living.

We try to welcome as many individuals as possible, but our number one priority is a resident’s health. If we believe a senior needs more care than we can provide, we can make suggestions for an alternative care solution.

No problem! We have trained staff members who can help with medication management. If you could benefit from this kind of service, just let the staff at the community know and they can help you out.
