I moved my loved one here and overall I'm very pleased - the place is spotless, bright and hotel-like with a lovely garden, roomy studio options, friendly/caring staff, nutritious tasty meals and lots of activities and outings. Housekeeping and dining are well managed, medication was handled promptly, and the location near shops makes visits easy. My only cautions: it's a small community that can be short-staffed at times, there have been management/personnel shifts that affected responsiveness, and it's not ideal for advanced dementia or higher medical needs. I'd recommend it for independent or assisted residents who want a homey, active community - just verify staffing and medical services for your level of care and budget.
Brookdale Windsor has been part of the Windsor community since 1997, and the two-story building sits among gardens, walking paths, and a courtyard, where residents often enjoy time outside such as sitting in the greenhouse, reading in the library, or catching up with friends in the fireside living room or game room. Residents choose suite housing options with floor plans that range from 365 to 605 square feet, and the facility welcomes pets, so animals can stay with their owners if that's important to them, which many people do find comforting. People can live independently, with support as they need it, or they can move in for assisted living, memory care for those with Alzheimer's or other dementia, skilled nursing, or short-term stays when more help is needed, and the staff is around 24 hours a day to help with things like bathing, getting dressed, taking medication, and moving around. Trained and compassionate staff help with daily chores, like housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, and maintenance, and if anything happens, someone's close by to respond to emergencies day or night.
Residents get transportation to appointments or outings, either for free or at a cost, and the building makes room for resident parking for those who still drive, and the property is set up for wheelchairs and makes it possible for people to age in place for as long as their health allows. There's a dining room serving meals each day and the option for room service or private dining, with guest meals for visitors. The community schedule's full of social, educational, and spiritual activities, both onsite and off, and people can attend devotional services or join in on activities meant to support the body and mind, along with simply keeping up with hobbies and social groups that matter to them. Guest services try to make life simpler by handling things like laundry and cleaning, which lets residents focus more on things that matter, and there are business centers and property amenities when people need to get things done or want to enjoy group events.
Signature programs aim to create a welcoming and supportive community that encourages independence and offers memory care and skilled nursing as people's needs change, and for anyone who needs help, person-centered care means staff adjusts their support to fit each resident, whether it's helping with medication, chores, meals, or simply lending an ear. The overall focus remains on creating an environment where people can keep their independence, get help as they need it, and carry on living a full life with their chosen level of engagement.
