Brookstone Estates of Effingham offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living. Residents who choose Assisted Living can expect support with daily tasks while maintaining as much independence as they can manage, and those in Independent Living have the option to add help only when it is needed. These core care types allow the community to adapt to changing health conditions without requiring a move to a different setting.

Medical services are available on site and are designed to address a range of needs. Diabetes management, speech therapy, respite stays, memory care, incontinence care, ambulatory support, and hospice care are handled by licensed nurses, physical therapists, and occupational therapists who are present in the building. An emergency call system ties residents directly to staff at any time of day, ensuring rapid response.

Accommodations include studio and efficiency apartments, housekeeping service, a library and computer lounge, outdoor sitting areas, and parking for those who drive. Select apartments are designated pet friendly so residents can bring a companion animal. Not every unit includes every feature, so confirming details during a personal tour is recommended. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.

Meals are prepared on site and served three times daily. The dining staff can modify menus to meet medical or personal dietary requirements, keeping an eye on portion sizes, sugar content, and texture as advised by the clinical team. Residents who prefer to eat in their own apartments can request tray service when needed.

Residents have use of an activity center for structured or free-time recreation, and the community schedules clubs, group events, health and wellness programs, and regular TV and movie nights. These offerings are rotated to encourage social interaction and to support physical and cognitive engagement.
