Brookside Village in Jasper, Indiana, operates as an assisted-living community with a clear medical orientation. The team supports residents who need oxygen therapy, wound care, special diets, or overnight assistance, and it can accommodate adults under 60 as well as older residents. Diabetes management is available for those on oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale regimens, and staff can work with individuals who have mild dementia.
Additional safeguards center on the presence of licensed nurses; an RN or LPN is on site around the clock, while another nurse remains on call for backup. Background-checked staff provide 24-hour security, respond to pull-cord alerts and PERS devices, and coordinate with visiting podiatry services in the therapy room. Care aides offer some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting while encouraging self-care at mealtimes. Mobility help ranges from standby support to one-person transfers for walker or wheelchair users.
Apartments vary in layout, but many include a private bathroom with grab-bar shower, a kitchenette, independent temperature controls, basic furnishings, cable, and free Wi-Fi. Residents are free to paint or decorate their space, and housekeeping plus scheduled laundry service are part of the monthly fee. Not every unit contains every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm specifics during a tour.
Dining is flexible, with a made-to-order menu at each meal, all-day snacks, and a private dining room for family events. The culinary team manages physician-ordered diet modifications and texture changes to align with each care plan.
Community amenities extend beyond apartments. Brookside Village offers resident parking, barber and beauty services, an exercise room, a wellness center, and reliable internet access in common areas. Landscaped gardens, on-site religious services, hobby clubs, and an events and crafts room support social engagement. Scheduled transportation and proximity to public transit simplify trips into town.
