Brookdale North Boulder is a senior living community for people aged 55 and up, made up of independent and assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all on one campus, and it's part of Brookdale Senior Living, which has been providing senior services for over 30 years, so the staff stays around the clock and offers care tailored to each person's needs, including help with daily activities, memory support for folks with Alzheimer's and dementia, and skilled nursing on site. The community focuses on helping residents stay active and live well, with a fitness center that has senior-friendly equipment, big sunlit spaces like the atrium lobby, outdoor courtyards and patios for sitting in the Colorado sunshine, and living rooms and bedrooms that have kitchenettes, neutral décor, and sliding glass doors to private balconies or sitting areas, plus the apartments are fully refurbished with new paint, nice flooring, stainless appliances, and a little bar for extra convenience.
There's a dining room with high ceilings and skylights, and table-side meal service, plus a café and general store on site, so it's easy to grab a snack or pick up essentials without heading out, and the on-site salon and beauty/barber shop mean hair care and upkeep are simple to arrange. For hobbies or social time, the community offers a library with plenty of seating, a game room with a pool table and board games, a billiards room, an arts studio, and a theater with a big TV for movies or shows, and the common areas have warm lighting and comfortable chairs for folks to gather, chat, or rest quietly.
People who live here get weekly housekeeping, fresh linens and towels, and the community is pet friendly, so residents who have pets can keep them close, and if someone needs to get to appointments or wants a ride into town, transportation and a door-to-door shuttle are available. Safety is a focus, with an alert system and staff ready 24/7 for emergencies, and there are several parking choices, including heated underground spots. Activities and educational events fill the calendar, so residents can always find something to do, whether it's crafts, games, special programs, or outings to local attractions like the Flatirons, Pearl Street, or the Farmers Market, and the staff encourage folks to enjoy scenic drives and help plan trips to places like Estes Park.
The community is three blocks from Brookdale Boulder Creek, its sister property, so there's a sense of connection, and the campus is kept clean and well-maintained with landscaping and modern details like brick columns at the entrance, big open spaces, and decorative touches that make it feel welcoming. The focus is on giving residents support as they age in place, helping them keep their independence for as long as possible, and listening to what each person needs or prefers day by day. Services are built around making each person comfortable and offering a good quality of life, with options for every stage of senior living, whether it's independent apartments, help with health care and physical therapy, or more involved care as needs change.
