Brookstone Estates of Fairfield operates as an assisted-living community designed for residents who need support with daily routines while still valuing independence. Licensed caregivers are on site around the clock to assist with bathing, dressing, mobility, and medication reminders. The team follows individualized service plans, adjusting support levels as needs change, and coordinates with outside health professionals to keep primary physicians informed.
Medical oversight at the community includes focused Diabetes Care. Staff members monitor blood glucose, assist with insulin administration, and ensure that dietary choices align with physician-ordered nutrition plans. Routine health checks, medication management, and prompt coordination with local healthcare providers aim to reduce hospital visits and maintain stable health conditions for residents managing chronic illnesses.
Apartments vary in layout and features, with options that may include kitchenettes for light meal preparation, private balconies or patios, and wheelchair-accessible showers. Wi-Fi, cable or satellite television, air conditioning, and handicap-accessible designs are available in many—but not all—units. The property is pet friendly and offers onsite parking, several outdoor deck areas, and communal spaces such as a piano or organ lounge, giving residents multiple places to relax or entertain visiting family.
Meals are prepared by a professional chef and served three times daily, with guest meals available on request. Menus can accommodate kosher, vegetarian, gluten-free, low- or no-sodium, and no-sugar diets to align with medical directives and personal preferences. Residents who prefer lighter fare or snacks outside scheduled dining hours can work with staff to select suitable options, ensuring consistent nutrition without compromising health goals.
Residents have access to an activity center, a library and computer lounge, and regular social outings that range from shopping trips to local events. The community schedules live music performances, birthday celebrations, and other group gatherings, while landscaped outdoor areas allow residents to spend time outside safely. A swimming pool is available for exercise or relaxation, and indoor common areas remain open for year-round use.
