Brookdale Chandler Regional sits at 750 S Pennington Dr, Chandler, AZ 85224, and offers different living options like assisted living, independent living, and memory care, and this place is run by Brookdale Senior Living, which has several communities across the country, and what folks tend to like is you can pick a suite or an apartment in studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom sizes, and you can bring small pets too, which is nice because many folks aren't ready to leave their little dog or cat, and there's a good amount of help available right onsite, with part-time nurses and therapists for physical, speech, and occupational needs, along with home care, hospice, and even dentists and physicians who can drop by for appointments, and the staff stays around day and night, helping with things like bathing, dressing, medication, and personal care, all working from a plan meant to fit whatever each resident asks for, and the place has safety features like an emergency pendant program, gated entrances, and quick response services, so family feels more at ease.
You'll find a range of activities both onsite and off, such as baking classes, tai chi, group outings, games, art classes, and fitness- there's a full gym with exercise equipment, a theater, activity and game rooms, a library, a coffee bar, and even a chapel for devotionals or quiet time, and the dining room is set up to serve restaurant-style meals with a soup and salad bar always open, plus they can do vegetarian meals, and if you want to host a family event, there's a private dining room for that. Residents get regular housekeeping, laundry, and linen service, and you'll see plenty of staff moving about or helping with basic needs, and they say there's a friendly team in charge, with folks like Amy Bloomfield, Cathy Leonard, Regan Stone running things, making sure everything stays on track.
The grounds are set up with well-kept gardens, walking paths, shaded outdoor spaces, and cozy corners inside where people can rest, read, or visit, and you'll see plenty of seating in community rooms and patios, plus parking lots for those with cars, and the location is practical too, because it's not far from Chandler Regional Hospital and shopping or dining off the 202 and 101 freeways, which makes it handy for families coming by or for residents who like a little trip now and then. The whole place is smoke-free indoors, supports aging in place, and welcomes folks at many different care levels, so if needs change, there's usually a way to stay in the same community, and their Arizona license, AL9101C, gets reviewed twice a year to keep everything up to standard. You'll likely notice a social culture, with programs to make friends, stay engaged, and live as independently as each person's able, and the staff puts in time to make sure the plans, activities, and spaces help people feel at home, no matter where they are in life.
