Glenbrooke at Palm Bay offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, allowing residents to select the level of oversight they require while remaining in the same community. The health program includes diabetes management as well as access to a speech-language pathologist, and an on-site podiatrist visits regularly. Staff members are prepared to support residents living with moderate dementia, and a registered nurse is on call around the clock to oversee care plans and respond to changes in condition.
Daily support is available for residents who need some physical help with bathing, dressing, eating, or toileting. Mobility assistance ranges from standby supervision to a full one-person transfer and accommodates walkers and wheelchairs. Safety measures include 24-hour staffed security, awake night-shift caregivers, background-checked employees, and an activity director who coordinates therapeutic and recreational programs. Emergency pull cords and personal emergency response systems alert staff at any hour.
Accommodations vary from suite-style layouts with private bathrooms to larger units with kitchenettes, individual climate controls, cable access, and the option to paint or decorate for a personal touch; not every room contains every feature, so prospective residents should verify availability. Independent Living residents receive medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, scheduled laundry, and a monthly meal plan, while still enjoying the privacy of their own apartment.
Dining offers a daily set menu developed to meet nutritional guidelines, with an on-order option for those who prefer more flexibility. Between meals, snacks are readily available so residents can maintain consistent blood-sugar levels or simply enjoy a light bite on their own schedule. Staff monitor special diets and coordinate closely with the clinical team to support diabetes care and other medical requirements.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty salon, exercise room, wellness center with internet access, communal gardens, a swimming pool, scheduled transportation, and regular religious services. Pets are allowed. It's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
