Brookdale Dublin in Dublin, PA is a dedicated Memory Care community equipped to support residents through all stages of dementia, including advanced presentations. Care teams manage residents who wander during the day or night, those with elopement risk, combative or other challenging behaviors, and individuals who stay awake overnight. Clinical services cover wound care, oxygen management, special diets, and comprehensive diabetic support, whether a resident uses oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and the community supports a wide range of mobility needs, from simple standby help to two-person transfers, Hoyer lifts, and bed-bound care.
Medical oversight is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call 24 hours a day. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift works alongside 24-hour security staff. The building features a fenced rear area, alarmed doors, and in-room pull cords that alert staff for immediate help. On-site medical services include podiatry, dentistry, and psychiatry, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric conditions. An activity director coordinates therapeutic programming designed for cognitive support, helping residents engage safely and predictably throughout the day.
Accommodation options include rooms with private bathrooms, basic furnishings, and cable service, and residents may personalize their space with paint or décor. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided, though not every unit contains every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm availability during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu with regular snack times, and the kitchen can deliver trays for in-room dining when needed. Staff accommodate physician-ordered diets such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, or thickened-liquid plans, ensuring each resident’s nutrition matches medical requirements.
Residents have access to wheelchair-friendly common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, a wellness center, high-speed internet, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Transportation is available for medical appointments through a community shuttle. The community is pet-friendly; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
