Brookdale McPherson offers assisted living as its primary level of care, supported by on-site nurses, medication management, hospice coordination, podiatry visits, and rehabilitation professionals including physical, occupational, and speech therapists. Residents who need diabetic oversight receive monitoring and menu adjustments, and a therapy room is available for scheduled sessions. Short-term respite stays can be arranged using the same clinical resources available to long-term residents. The community is also engineered for memory support, with purpose-built spaces designed to accommodate moderate dementia conditions and reduce confusion.
Daily assistance includes full help with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and staff can manage continence supplies as well as ambulatory or wheelchair needs. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to one-person physical assistance, and walkers or wheelchairs are accommodated throughout the building. An awake night shift ensures 24-hour monitoring and quick response to medical or behavioral changes. Security is reinforced through keypad entry points that add an extra layer of safety for residents with memory challenges.
Private and semi-private apartments come in multiple layouts; some include kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs, wall-to-wall carpeting, or wheelchair-accessible showers, while others feature porch access or views of the landscaped courtyard and butterfly garden. Central air conditioning, in-room Wi-Fi, and available cable service help residents stay comfortable and connected, and housekeeping is provided on a regular schedule. Not every accommodation contains every feature, so touring the specific units is recommended.
Dining is handled by a professional chef who prepares three daily meals plus healthy snacks, with options for low-sodium or no-sugar diets. All-day dining flexibility allows residents to eat on their own schedule, and guest meals can be arranged in the main dining room or a private space for family gatherings. Seasonal barbecues and picnics are held in the outdoor garden areas to add variety to the menu.
Residents have access to surface parking, wheelchair-friendly common areas, a fireside living room, library, piano, barber and beauty shop, whirlpool, and well-kept communal gardens. Internet access, flat-screen TVs in lounges, and a therapy room support both relaxation and rehabilitation. Pets are allowed at Brookdale McPherson; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
