Brookdale Trail Ridge in Sun City West focuses exclusively on Memory Care and is equipped to support residents living with any stage of dementia, including advanced conditions. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is onsite around the clock, with an additional nurse on call 24/7 for added coverage. The community can care for residents who wander day or night, attempt elopement, or present behavioral challenges such as combativeness or staying up all night. Medical management includes full support for wound care, oxygen therapy, specialized diets, and diabetes care whether on oral medications, injections, or sliding scale regimens. Younger residents under 60 are also accepted when Memory Care is clinically appropriate.
To maintain safety and consistency, Brookdale Trail Ridge runs background checks on all staff, keeps an awake night shift, and provides door alarms, fenced front and rear areas, WanderGuard technology, and in-room pull cords. On-site podiatry visits are available, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Assistance with activities of daily living can be delivered at a full-support level for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer capabilities range from standby or one-person transfers through two-person and full Hoyer-lift support, including bed-bound care, ensuring residents can remain in place even as mobility changes.
Resident accommodations are offered in furnished suites with private bathrooms, independent temperature controls, and optional cable service. Families may personalize living spaces by painting or decorating, although individual rooms differ and not every suite includes every listed feature.
Dining services provide a set menu at each mealtime, while an on-order option allows residents to request alternatives. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the culinary team manages diet modifications to accommodate texture changes, sugar restrictions, low-sodium needs, and other physician-ordered plans.
