Brookdale Redwood City sits in the Redwood Oaks neighborhood and has a license from the state of California (License #: 415600874), making sure care and safety rules are followed, and the place can welcome up to 130 residents. You'll find it as part of the Brookdale Senior Living group, known as one of the biggest in the country, and here they've included a mix of independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and continuing care retirement setups, so people with different needs have a spot. There are apartments with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans, plus some with balconies or patios, walk-in closets, kitchens or kitchenettes, and private bathrooms. Some units have views, and the common spaces are well-kept with living rooms, fireplaces, and plenty of comfortable seats, along with patios, a community library, gardens for those who like to plant, computer and game rooms, billiards, a beauty salon, and even an indoor heated pool.
The location gives easy access to local cafes, In-N-Out Burger, parks, Redwood City Medical Center, and pharmacies, and the grounds themselves are landscaped for walks or sitting outdoors, with both outdoor and indoor activities on the weekly calendar. Residents can join fitness classes, music, arts and crafts, game nights, or devotional services (Jewish, Catholic, Protestant), and there's open seating in the restaurant-style dining room staffed by a professional chef, with guest meals and options for special diets. Meals focus on nutrition and good ingredients, and for variety, they offer anytime dining, private dining rooms, and room service. Onsite services include housekeeping, laundry, and home care support, plus emergency response systems and staff on-call 24/7.
People who need help with daily activities such as bathing, getting dressed, or taking medicine get personalized support. The community works with local doctors and has nursing care 12-16 hours a day, with systems in place to keep folks safe, including wheelchair-friendly showers and regular check-ins. There's also a respite care option for short-term needs and support for people with memory problems or health conditions like kidney disease. Residents get a mix of social, educational, and wellness programs aimed at keeping everyone engaged, and the property is pet-friendly and open to all, with LGBTQ+ friendly policies and a welcoming attitude from the helpful staff, which many residents comment are joyful and kind. The spot keeps up with local and federal requirements for accessibility and discrimination protections, and transportation is available both as a free service and for a fee, with parking for residents and nearby bus lines. Awards and high scores in reviews say the activities, staff, and food help people enjoy a good quality of life, and residents or families can schedule tours to get a feel for the daily life and services available. With a range of living options, health programs, and a focus on residents' independence and well-being, Brookdale Redwood City offers a place where people can age with support in a comfortable, friendly environment.
