Brookdale Union Park is an assisted-living community that concentrates on everyday medical oversight. The staff can manage wound care, oxygen therapy, and a range of special diets, including needs linked to diabetes for residents on either oral medications or insulin injections. Team members are also prepared to support adults younger than 60 who require an assisted-living setting and individuals living with mild dementia. In-house podiatry visits reduce the need for off-site appointments and help residents stay proactive about foot and ankle health.
Care delivery is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff, a nurse on call around the clock, and an awake night shift. All employees undergo background checks, and residents have access to pull-cord alert systems, 24-hour staffed security, and a fenced rear area. Hands-on help is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting at a full-assistance level. Transfer support ranges from standby supervision to one-person assists and accommodates walkers and wheelchairs. Daily engagement is organized by an activity director to maintain social and cognitive stimulation.
Living quarters are designed for privacy and comfort, offering options that may include a private bathroom, independent temperature controls, and cable service. Housekeeping is provided, and scheduled laundry keeps personal items in order. Because layouts and upgrades vary, not every apartment includes every listed feature.
Dining follows a set menu with three daily meals, and snacks are available between seatings. The culinary staff can modify textures, restrict sugar, or adjust salt levels to meet physician-ordered diet plans or personal preferences.
Residents have access to on-site parking, designated outdoor smoking areas, and wheelchair-friendly common spaces. The community welcomes pets, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Additional conveniences include a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, and scheduled transportation for errands and medical appointments.
