Brookdale Columbus in Columbus, GA is a dedicated Memory Care community that also delivers focused Diabetes Care and support for residents with moderate dementia. The care program is structured to address cognitive changes while closely monitoring blood sugar levels, coordinating with physicians, and adjusting care plans as conditions evolve.

Around-the-clock clinical oversight is standard. Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on staff, and a nurse is on site 24 hours a day to manage routine health needs and respond to emergencies. Security personnel are also present at all times. Staff provide full assistance for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they can help residents transfer with a walker, wheelchair, or through standby supervision.

Apartments are designed for safety and ease of navigation, and some include a kitchenette for light meal preparation; however, not every unit has the same features. Families can review available floor plans during a tour to select the layout that best fits the resident’s routines.

Meals are served from a set menu, and the culinary team works with clinical staff to honor physician-ordered diet modifications and texture adjustments. This approach ensures consistency in nutrition while still accommodating specialized dietary needs such as low-sugar or low-sodium plans.

Daily life is supported by an array of amenities and services. Residents can schedule haircuts at the barber and beauty shop, exercise in the fitness room, or follow individualized plans in the wellness center. Internet access is provided throughout the building, and outdoor spaces include communal gardens, landscaped grounds, a courtyard, and walking paths. On-site religious services, a daily check-in system, concierge service, and surface parking add convenience. Leisure options range from a coffee shop, café/bistro, snack shop, and fireside living room to spaces for billiards, a game room, woodworking, arts and crafts, and gardening in the greenhouse. Postal services, a community room for rental, meeting rooms, a private dining room for family gatherings, and guest suites are available. Residents can read in the library, watch programs on flat-screen TVs, or play the piano. A business center with computers, an exercise therapy room, communal porch, and multiple lounges contribute to varied daily schedules. Safety features include emergency response devices in every room, a 24-hour security system, and keypad entry.
