Brookdale Palm Beach Gardens has a mid-rise building where seniors can choose from suites, one, or two-bedroom apartments, many with private screened-in porches and kitchens with lots of storage and natural light, and the place feels homey with options for independent living, assisted living, and memory care. Residents can enjoy amenities like an outdoor pool, a fitness center with weights, a sports bar, a putting green, landscaped walking paths, a green garden, a screened lanai, and a fishing pond, and there are indoor spaces such as a theater, a library, a beauty salon, a convenience store, a dance floor lounge, an arts and crafts center, a therapy room, photography services, a game room, and a private dining room. The Clare Bridge memory care environment sits in a separate building, equipped for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, and has full-time activity workers, safety bracelets to prevent wandering, trained staff who handle exit-seeking or difficult behaviors, and personalized wellness programs that include mentally stimulating activities.
Every week, the community organizes outings around town and brings in live entertainment three times, and there are daily activities like water aerobics, stretching, Tai Chi, yoga, brain fitness, art classes, gardening, meditation, educational lectures, and community service projects, aiming to keep everyone social and engaged. Staff are onsite 24 hours a day and a nurse is available, with care levels ranging from basic help to more hands-on medical and behavioral support, including help with medication, injections, managing diabetes and incontinence, personal grooming, bathing, dressing, delivering personal items, and mechanical lifts for those needing more assistance. There's a focus on supporting people's changing needs over time, so residents can age in place, get respite or hospice care, and access services for diabetic or behavioral care.
Meals include chef-prepared dishes with choices like an expanded continental breakfast, a la carte lunch, several-course dinners, and special diets for vegetarians, plus community-style dining or private and in-room service, making it easier for different preferences and needs. The community is pet-friendly, allowing cats and dogs, and offers pet care, and there's resident parking, complimentary transportation both scheduled and on-demand, and even help with home care through Brookdale HealthPlus and other at-home support programs. The daily life at Brookdale Palm Beach Gardens is rounded out with housekeeping, linen service, devotional services, and convenient access to a beauty salon, a gift shop, and outdoor and indoor common areas.
Safety features stand out, with secured grounds, wander alert systems, wheelchair accessible spaces, and a team ready for emergencies, and people who are at risk of wandering or showing aggressive or hard-to-manage behaviors can still be part of the community with the right support in place. Veterans and their spouses can use VA benefits here, too, and the setting encourages residents to bring their pets, decorate their spaces, and join in on many onsite and offsite activities, with the idea that everyone, no matter their health or care needs, can find comfort, safety, and social connection. Brookdale Palm Beach Gardens belongs to the larger Brookdale Senior Living organization and supports people in independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, continuing care, and even at-home care, offering a variety of environments, wellness services, and structured programs that match each person's abilities and interests as they age.
