Brookdale Rocky Mount operates as an assisted living community that is equipped to support residents with moderate dementia. The care team delivers disease-specific programs for diabetes management, structured mental wellness activities, short-term respite stays, and on-site physical therapy. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is always on staff, and a nurse is physically on site 24 hours a day to respond to changes in condition, oversee medication management, and coordinate physician orders.
Additional clinical resources include 12- to 16-hour daily nursing coverage, wound care, occupational therapy, hospice coordination, podiatry, and dental services. The building is designed with an enclosed courtyard to help residents who may wander, and security personnel remain on site around the clock. Staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are trained to aid transfers for residents who use a walker or wheelchair or who need standby supervision.
Residential options range from studio and efficiency layouts to units with kitchenettes, wheelchair-accessible showers, central air conditioning, cable or satellite TV connections, and in-unit washers and dryers. Select apartments may also feature phone service, Wi-Fi, and access to landscaped outdoor areas, but not every accommodation includes every listed feature.
Meals follow a set menu with the ability to honor physician-ordered diet modifications. Residents dine in a communal setting, and staff are available to assist anyone who needs help cutting food or maintaining adequate nutrition.
The campus offers surface and uncovered resident parking, a secured entry system, and 24-hour staffing. Amenities include a library, computer and media areas with internet access, meeting rooms, postal services, a barber and beauty shop, a whirlpool, and keypad entry for added safety. Pets are allowed; it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
