Brookdale The Heights Memory Care offers licensed assisted living that is structured to meet the day-to-day medical needs of older adults, including those living with moderate dementia. The clinical team can supervise oxygen use, coordinate special diets, and manage diabetics who rely on oral medications. Residents younger than 60 are also accepted when appropriate. On-site podiatry and medication management services reduce the need for outside appointments and help maintain consistent care continuity.
Registered and licensed nurses are on the staff roster, with a nurse on call around the clock. Caregivers remain awake overnight, and every employee is background-checked. Safety systems include door alarms, a fenced rear area, 24-hour staffing, pull cords, and personal emergency response devices that alert staff immediately. Full assistance is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from simple standby help to one- and two-person transfers, and residents who use walkers or wheelchairs are routinely accommodated. An activity director coordinates daily programming that complements the medical oversight.
Residences are set up to feel straightforward and functional. Some apartments include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent climate controls, cable service, and options to paint or decorate the room; not every unit offers every feature, so it is best to confirm availability during a tour. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided to all residents, ensuring living spaces stay clean and orderly without the need for personal effort.
Meals are served three times a day with both set menus and made-to-order options, and snacks are available between meals. The culinary staff works closely with the clinical team to support diet modifications, including mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid preparations. Special dietary requirements, such as carbohydrate-controlled plans for diabetics, are managed under the same program to maintain consistent nutritional oversight.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, a movie room, a wellness center, internet connectivity, communal gardens, and regularly scheduled religious services. Transportation is available for medical appointments and community outings. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
