Care

Assisted Living

A living option for seniors or individuals who require assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication management while maintaining a level of independence. Assisted living facilities offer personalized care plans and social activities that promote quality of life for their residents.

Independent Living

Designed to help older adults who want to maintain an active and independent lifestyle, these communities offer services and amenities that cater to residents’ needs, while encouraging a sense of community and freedom from the responsibilities of owning a home.

Memory Care

Memory care communities offer specialized care and support for individuals dealing with memory-related conditions, such as Alzheimer’s or dementia. These facilities are equipped with trained staff and offer engaging activities designed to promote well-being while ensuring a safe living environment.

Respite Care

Respite care is short-term or temporary care. Respite care can be provided in adult day centers, in private homes via home health agencies and in senior living communities, most often assisted living or skilled nursing facilities.

    The staff is incredibly warm, friendly and accommodating. The facilities are top-notch, and well-maintained. The group sessions are a unique blend of offerings, and any person would find something great for themselves to do. Moving my father-in-law in here has been nothing short of extraordinary.

    After many years of living at an Assisted Living facility in New Jersey my mother made the move to Brookside a couple of months ago. From the moment she arrived, we felt welcomed by the friendly and compassionate staff. They took the time to get to know us and made sure that all her needs were addressed. All the amenities are top-notch, and it’s clear that much thought has gone into creating a space that promotes both comfort and independence for all residents. I could not be happier that the staff at Brookside has made this move almost seamless. Having years of experience dealing with Assisted Living residences, it is rare to find a place that combines excellent care with a real sense of warmth and compassion. Brookside delivers on both.

    The NURSING STAFF - Agnes (Director) and team has been nothing short of spectacular to our mother as she encountered challenges over the past 4 months. They are attentive, flexible and tuned in to exactly what each patient needs to get them back to healthy. Our mom is quite frail...when she became bedridden the staff responded with hand feeding...regularly adapting medications and support of every kind....adding staff to monitor/assist as needed...calling in the outside PT and Doctors as needed....prescribing, receiving, adjusting and administering meds....and she got to the other side! When Mom became ill again, Agnes literally went to visit her in rehab TWICE. As Mom's rehab situation changed, Brookside adapted and stood ready to welcome her back and even lead the transition for us because immediate family was out of town. I never ever feel like a bother. I am always made to feel special and like our Mom is a valued member of their family. Brookside is worth every penny....all one has to do is spend time anywhere else and you will quickly learn...from the Nursing Staff to Management (Stacey Tucci)...to the front desk staff to the daily caretakers....even the Residents....this place is absolutely wonderful.

    While I am very happy with the spacious rooms and activities provided for my mother and I very distressed about her missing jewelry. Stacey Tucci looked for the items herself and then a police report was filed. Please get your loved one a safe for their heirlooms.
