Brookdale South Windsor provides two levels of long-term care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—so residents can remain in a familiar setting even as needs change. The community supports a wide range of medical conditions, including residents who wander during the day or night, those at risk of elopement, behavioral challenges, advanced dementia, wound care requirements, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes management whether oral medications, injections, or sliding scale regimens are needed. Staff are trained to assist individuals who are awake all night and younger residents under 60, ensuring continuity of care regardless of age or diagnosis.

Clinical resources are structured for quick response. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, and a nurse is on call 24 hours a day. Night-shift caregivers remain awake, background checks are completed on all team members, and the building is secured with door alarms, pull cords, and personal emergency response systems that alert staff. On-site medical services include podiatry, audiology, dental care, a therapy room, and acceptance of psychiatric concerns, reducing the need for outside appointments. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby support with a walker to two-person or full Hoyer lift transfers, accommodating residents with limited mobility.

Residences are designed for varying preferences and budgets. Some apartments offer private bathrooms, kitchenettes, furnished layouts, independent temperature controls, and cable service, while others may have only a selection of these features. Residents may personalize their space with paint or décor. Routine housekeeping and scheduled laundry are included in the service package to reduce daily chores and keep living areas clean.

Meals are prepared with both set menus and on-order options, and snacks are available throughout the day. In-room dining and a private dining room support social or quiet meals as desired. The culinary team manages diet modifications, including gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puree, or thickened-liquid plans, ensuring medical and personal dietary guidelines are met.

Community services round out daily life with resident parking, wheelchair-accessible design, an exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, and a full barber and beauty salon. Scheduled transportation and the property’s proximity to public transit help residents reach local appointments or outings. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
