Brookdale Southfield is a senior living community for older adults that offers a wide range of care, including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, independent living, and continuing care retirement community services, so if somebody wants to stay in one place while their needs change, they've got options like help with everyday tasks or more advanced care. The place has a coffee bar, a dining room with restaurant-style service, a private dining room, a common room, and open areas both inside and out where people can relax or visit with friends, plus a gym, swimming pool, movie room, bar, library, TV lounge, activity room, and arts and crafts center, and there's even a beauty salon and barber shop. Residents can choose from spacious apartments in studio layouts, and there's parking on site with easy access to bus lines for those who want to get out and about.
Pets are welcome, so those who don't want to leave a furry friend behind won't have to, and there are guest meals for visitors, as well as services like housekeeping, laundry, grocery shopping help, and transportation, which makes things a bit easier. Staff are available 24 hours a day and there's a nurse on call, plus onsite nurses and a homecare agency, so someone is around if something happens, and the facility is checked regularly by a third-party to keep its license up to date, which gives some peace of mind about safety. The home-like setting is run by trained staff and registered nurses who help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication, but they also respect each person's dignity and independence, using a person-centered approach that aims to keep self-care skills strong.
Meals are provided and can be tailored for special diets, like low or no sodium or sugar, and there's room service if needed. Full tubs and wheelchair accessible showers are there for people who need them. Brookdale Southfield supports both men and women residents and is recognized for including people with physical and mental disabilities, offering personalized care plans to support physical, mental, and emotional health. Folks can enjoy exercise classes, music guests, karaoke every third Wednesday, game nights, yoga, arts and crafts, and outings offsite, and there are devotional services onsite and offsite, with visits from a chaplain and rabbi for those who want spiritual care. Special services include speech, occupational, and physical therapy, along with podiatrist visits, and options for aging in place, so people can stay when their needs grow.
The place also offers respite and hospice services, and has some continuing engagement through Brookdale Blogs for information and community updates, with staff taking time to explain care and amenities to residents and their families. Some features focus on health and safety, and the aim is to provide a friendly, accommodating environment with enough activities and social opportunities to help seniors stay active, connected, and engaged at every stage.
