Brookdale East Side delivers assisted living care for residents who need day-to-day support while remaining as independent as possible. The community accepts individuals requiring diabetes management and welcomes guests for respite or short-term stays. A speech therapist is available for residents with communication or swallowing challenges, and on-site clinical services include physical therapy, occupational therapy, podiatry, ambulatory care, incontinence care, medication management, hospice care, and a dedicated memory care program for those who may develop cognitive needs. An awake night shift ensures that qualified staff are present around the clock to respond to medical or safety concerns.
Care staff provide help with activities of daily living tailored to each resident’s abilities. Team members can give some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while meals are monitored with standby supervision for those who need encouragement or oversight. Although the community does not specialize in dementia-specific support, residents receive routine health monitoring, scheduled nurse assessments, and coordination with outside physicians to maintain continuity of care.
Apartments and suites vary in layout, and not every unit includes every feature, but many offer wheelchair-accessible showers, flat-screen televisions, and views of the landscaped grounds. Outdoor sitting areas and walking paths give residents space for fresh air, while on-site parking accommodates those who still drive or host visitors. Interior common areas are designed for step-free access to accommodate mobility devices.
Dining focuses on balanced menus served restaurant-style, with staff available to adjust texture or portion sizes to meet dietary instructions from physicians. A private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings or special celebrations, allowing residents to host visitors without leaving the property.
Residents have access to practical and leisure amenities such as reserved parking, a full-service barber and beauty shop, concierge assistance, library, billiards table, community piano, and postal services. An emergency alert system connects each apartment to staff response teams, supporting peace of mind for residents and their families.
