Brookdale Central Whittier

Brookdale Central Whittier is an assisted living community in Whittier, California, where compassionate staff provide personalized care and support to seniors day and night, always ready to help with things like medication, bathing, dressing, or just daily chores, and good caregivers and licensed nurses stay on site 24 hours a day if something comes up. The building has two stories with studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, and some of the apartments have balconies or patios, and you'll find wheelchair accessible showers, full tubs, and emergency systems in every private unit. The community allows pets, offers three chef-prepared meals each day served in a restaurant-style dining room with white linens, yellow napkins, fresh flowers, and you can eat with others because the tables are set up for company, and there's plenty of space for socializing, dining, and entertainment, either indoors or outdoors. There's a cozy game room with board games, big-screen TV, and couches, a movie theater for films, a beauty salon with hair styling chairs and barber stations, and a library for reading or activities. Wi-Fi helps everyone stay connected, and there are walking paths and a European style courtyard with white patio furniture, so it's easy to get some fresh air, garden, or just relax outside. Many activities fill the schedule, like Bible study on Tuesdays and Thursdays, fitness classes and wellness programs, music programs, community events, life enrichment programs, and planned outings, so residents can stay active and keep up with others. The staff keep up with light, medium, or heavy care needs, help with diabetic care by monitoring blood sugar, give two-person transfers when needed, and can care for bowel or bladder incontinence if residents are able to manage their own needs, and they do medication management but aren't able to give insulin shots. There are special services for people with Alzheimer's or other memory needs, and the memory care area is set up to help reduce confusion and prevent wandering, while those who just want a little help or want to live independently have support for housekeeping, postal services, concierge and transportation. The building has common areas with comfortable seating, artwork, display cases, resident parking, and a 24-hour call system with pendants for safety, and there's a real focus on social and physical engagement, thanks to indoor lounges, outdoor garden spaces, and a fitness room. Meals are healthy, made on site from quality ingredients, and prepared by a dedicated culinary team, which helps residents save time and money. Brookdale Central Whittier is also a pet-friendly place, and the whole community feels warm, close, and lively, with space to visit, rest, or join the many things going on each week, so seniors can keep living life with comfort and care.
