The Broadmoor Assisted Living Community in Fort Pierce concentrates its clinical program on memory care, accepting residents who live with Alzheimer’s disease and other advanced dementias. The team is prepared to manage wandering behaviors day or night, elopement risk, combative episodes, general behavioral issues, and residents who remain awake through the night. Medical oversight extends to oxygen management, special-diet coordination, younger residents under age 60 who need support, and diabetics controlled by oral medication. Families who need a setting that will continue to serve as dementia progresses will find that the community’s protocols are designed to accommodate late-stage cognitive decline.
Direct care is backed by a licensed nurse on-site around the clock and an additional nurse on call 24/7. Caregivers work awake night shifts, and every employee completes a background check. Electronic door alarms, pull-cord alerts, personal emergency response systems, and dedicated security staff provide continuous monitoring. A visiting podiatrist offers on-site foot care. Staff can give full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and are trained in multiple transfer techniques—from standby supervision to one- or two-person lifts for wheelchair or walker users—so residents with changing mobility can remain in place.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and not all accommodations include the same features. Some rooms come furnished, offer independent temperature controls, and allow residents to paint or decorate; others may vary in layout and amenities. Private bathrooms are an option in select units, and cable service can be arranged for residents who request it.
Meals follow both a set menu cycle and an on-demand ordering system for residents who prefer different choices. Therapeutic diets prescribed by a physician, including diabetic, low-sodium, or texture-modified meals, are prepared by the dietary staff. Snacks are available throughout the day and night so that residents who experience sleep pattern changes common in dementia can still receive nourishment at unconventional hours.
Residents have access to wheelchair-friendly common areas, an exercise room, barber and beauty shop services, internet connectivity, communal gardens, scheduled on-site religious services, and sensory-stimulation programming designed for cognitive engagement. Transportation can be arranged for medical appointments and community outings.
