Brookside Healthcare Center in Redlands offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, with medical resources scaled to each resident’s needs. Licensed staff oversee diabetes management whether residents use oral medications, insulin injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. The team is trained to handle wound care, oxygen therapy, and physical therapy on site, and they can accommodate special diets as prescribed by physicians. Respite stays are available for short-term recovery, and caregivers remain awake and on duty throughout the night to monitor residents who require round-the-clock attention.
Beyond the clinical services, the community’s care model emphasizes routine assessments and individualized care plans. Assistance with activities of daily living—including bathing, dressing, and medication reminders—is provided for Assisted Living residents, while Independent Living occupants receive concierge-style support only when requested. On-site rehabilitation staff coordinate with outside physicians, and transportation to local medical appointments can be arranged.
Residents choose from studio and one-bedroom layouts that may include independent temperature controls, in-unit laundry, private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable service, and Wi-Fi. Some apartments open to outdoor areas, and all receive scheduled housekeeping and optional laundry service. Not every apartment has every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific inclusions during a tour.
Dining is structured around a standard menu with three meals daily, but alternatives are always available. The kitchen staff can prepare mechanical-chopped entrées, vegetarian options, and other physician-ordered diet modifications. Meals may be taken in the main dining room, a smaller private room for family gatherings, or delivered to the resident’s apartment. Snacks are stocked and on-order items can be requested between meal times.
Community life includes an activity center, arts and crafts sessions, and organized clubs. Residents make use of a library and computer lounge for reading or internet access, and planned social outings keep them connected with the wider Redlands area. Health and wellness programs round out the calendar, offering fitness classes and educational seminars designed to support overall well-being.
