Belmont Village Fort Lauderdale offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care in one community, making it possible for residents to transition between levels of support without changing addresses. The team is equipped to manage complex medical profiles, including residents who wander during the day or night, present elopement risks, exhibit combative or other behavioral challenges, stay up all night, or require wound care, oxygen therapy, or special diets. Diabetes management is available for those on oral medication, injections, or sliding‐scale protocols, and the staff is trained to serve adults under 60 as well as those with advanced dementia.
Clinical oversight is provided by RNs and LPNs, with a nurse on site around the clock and additional on‐call coverage. All employees undergo background checks, and awake night staff monitor residents continuously. Apartments are connected to staff through pull cords and personal emergency response systems, and perimeter doors are alarmed. On‐site medical services include podiatry and acceptance of residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby help with a walker to one‐ or two‐person transfers for wheelchair users.
Accommodations range from studio to two‐bedroom layouts. Some residences offer private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate; prospective residents should confirm specific features during a tour since not all apartments include every amenity. Dining options cover a set menu for scheduled meals as well as on-order selections. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the culinary staff can modify textures, portion sizes, and ingredients to meet physician-ordered diets or personal preferences.
Independent Living residents can add medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry, and a monthly meal plan to create the support package that fits their lifestyles. These services allow residents to remain largely self-reliant while receiving targeted assistance where needed.
Community amenities include resident parking, designated outdoor smoking areas, pet-friendly policies, full wheelchair accessibility, an on-site barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, regularly scheduled religious services, a stair glide for easier floor access, and both community transportation and proximity to public transit options. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
