About Brookdale Forest City

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Brookdale Forest City delivers two primary levels of care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—and is equipped to accommodate residents with moderate dementia. The community supports short-term respite stays, offers diabetes management, and maintains a mental wellness program along with a dedicated therapy room. A visiting physician and a speech therapist contribute to on-site clinical oversight, while all associates assigned to Memory Care receive specialized dementia training. Medication management, hospice coordination, and incontinence care are part of the standard service package, ensuring residents receive consistent medical attention without leaving the campus.

Clinical coverage is reinforced by licensed nurses on duty around the clock and additional RN/LPN support available 12–16 hours each day. The building is staffed and monitored 24 hours, and entrances are secured to protect residents who may be at risk of wandering. Team members provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and can handle walker or wheelchair mobility, standby supervision, one-person lifts, or two-person transfers as needed. Ambulatory care, podiatry services, and coordination for hospice or independent living transitions round out the continuum of care.

Residences range from efficient studio layouts to larger suites, some with kitchenettes, washer-dryer hookups, or flat-screen TVs. Units are air-conditioned, wired for cable and high-speed internet, and many include wheelchair-accessible showers or traditional bathtubs. Select apartments feature courtyard or garden views, while common areas offer a central fireplace, computer lounge, and porch seating. Pet-friendly options, resident parking, and handicap-accessible floor plans are available, though not every accommodation includes every feature listed.

Meals are served restaurant-style with a set menu designed to meet common nutritional needs, and the culinary team makes diet modifications on request for conditions such as diabetes or low-sodium requirements. Staff monitor intake for residents who need assistance and can provide full help with feeding when necessary. Snacks and beverages are available throughout the day, and family members are welcome to join meals with advance notice.

Resident life is supported by on-site parking, a barber and beauty salon, internet access points, communal gardens, and a daily check-in system. Every apartment is equipped with an emergency response device connected to the 24-hour security system, and common areas use keypad entry for additional safety. Concierge and postal services are handled at the front desk, and the library and therapy room remain open for personal or rehabilitative use. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
