Overview

How does a retirement with fewer chores and more adventures sound? It’s maintenance-free living at its best, and you’ve earned it! We’ll take care of the chores while you focus on what you want to do. Here at Brookdale Meridian Lakewood, a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) in Lakewood, Colorado, we offer independent living and skilled nursing. If you need skilled nursing care while recovering from surgery, no problem. Want to let someone else do the cooking and dishes? Now, you can.  

By definition, a CCRC, or continuing care retirement community, is a senior living community that provides multiple levels of care at one campus. So what does that mean for you?  That means you’ll have the care you need if you or your spouse need more care later with independent living and skilled nursing right here. And we’re a rental CCRC. That means you’ll pay a monthly rental fee based on the level of care and services you need—with no buy-in fee.

Start your morning with a stroll on our walking paths through a 10-acre campus with scenic views. Skip the lines at the big movie complexes and catch your next matinee on campus at our on-site theater. And don’t forget to book your next hair appointment at our on-site salon. 

You have the freedom to experiment with new hobbies, reignite your sense of purpose and enjoy new experiences and connections with interesting new friends. Here are just a few of the possibilities:

  • Tai chi

  • Fitness classes

  • Book club

  • Card games and board games

  • Sewing circle

  • Movie night

    This place is amazing, the staff is great and treats my mother with care and respect. We live far away and it is nice knowing she is safe with them. She says the food is great and I have always been impressed by the cleanliness of the entire facility. I would give more stars if I could

    Recently had a flood from a pipe break and had to move to another apt and they have been very helpful but the food remains the biggest draw back as it is poorly prepared and often poorly sservedll We have asked for changes for quite a while but seems things don't get much better ! We would like a red Sunday buffet not a mishmash and same things every Sunday! There is not imagination or interest in our food.

    My mother in-law is not happy she was told in the introduction meeting that there is a head chef and the food is going to be really good and it's not it is very very disappointing. Ex menu says pork loin what comes out of the kitchen is a very thin overcooked breaded pork chop big difference.
