Brookdale Wilmington is structured around a dedicated memory care program designed for residents living with moderate dementia. Care plans are individualized and continually reviewed, with an emphasis on helping each resident maintain cognitive abilities for as long as possible while remaining safe and engaged.
Clinical oversight is continuous. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on-site around the clock, and additional nursing staff are available 24 hours a day. Team members can provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they are trained to manage transfers for residents who use walkers, wheelchairs, or who only need standby supervision. Security personnel are also present at all times, and keypad entry supports controlled access throughout the community.
Residences include a range of private or companion suites, each designed with clear sightlines and unobtrusive safety features to reduce confusion and falls. Some apartments have private bathrooms, while others share common facilities; not every unit includes every feature, so confirming specific room details during a tour is recommended.
Meals are served on a set schedule from a rotating menu that accommodates physician-ordered diets and individual preferences. Specialized textures, reduced-sugar options, and other modifications can be prepared as directed. Staff remain in the dining room to provide cueing or full assistance with eating as needed, and hydration stations are available between meals.
Residents have access to on-site parking, a barber and beauty shop, campus-wide internet, landscaped communal gardens, concierge support, reservable meeting rooms, a well-stocked library, an arts and crafts studio, and keypad entry for added safety.
