Brookdale Meridian Englewood sits at 3455 S Corona St, Englewood, CO 80113, about six miles from Denver, and you'll notice right away that the place is designed for seniors aged 55 and up who want choices as they age since it works as a continuing care retirement community, or CCRC, so folks can move in for independent living and then stay as their needs change with on-site assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care. The building is a mid-rise, and residents can pick between one-bedroom and two-bedroom units, sizes ranging from about 735 to 1,720 square feet, with in-unit kitchens, modern appliances, storage, and ample counter space, and the whole community has a pet-friendly policy, so cats and dogs can move in too. No smoking is allowed inside, either in private rooms or public areas, which keeps the air clean for everyone.
You'll find the community includes indoor and outdoor common spaces with comfortable seating and nice decor, plus a private dining room for special meals, a well-stocked library, a theater with a large TV, a bistro with a beverage bar, and outdoor patios, making it easy to spend time with neighbors or host family. The facility has high-speed Wi-Fi/internet and is handicap accessible, so getting around is straightforward for everybody.
For health care, Brookdale Meridian Englewood has skilled nursing care with 24/7 staff for medical supervision, rehabilitation, and chronic condition support with personal care plans; they've also got assisted living for those needing some help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, or taking medicine but who don't need full-time nursing, and independent living for seniors who want camaraderie and events, not hands-on care. The memory care area has fewer rooms, keeping the setting intimate and easier for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, with staff focused on personal plans, activities for mental stimulation, and safety measures to minimize wandering.
Activities run both on and off campus, and there's a structured program that aims to keep folks independent, engaged, and healthy, with options for social, educational, and recreational events. Transportation services are included, so getting to doctor's appointments, outings, or errands isn't hard, and they offer complimentary rides as part of the amenity list. Residents also have access to beautician services on site, counseling, and devotional services both in and out of the building.
Meals are provided, and they cater to different diets as needed. Regular housekeeping comes standard, along with home health care options for those wanting extra support without moving units. Staff stay on-site around the clock for emergencies, and the HealthPlus program, led by a registered nurse, organizes care and preventative services like wellness visits, immunizations, and screenings. Brookdale Blogs and signature programs reflect their approach to education and engagement.
Administrator Lindsey Doiel runs the facility, part of the Brookdale Senior Living group, and the community has been recognized with a #1 ranking in Customer Satisfaction. Residents here can find living arrangements and support that fit changing needs, access a full range of amenities, keep pets, and continue to live as independently as possible, surrounded by friendly staff and neighbors.
