Brookdale Tramway Ridge is a senior living community located at 4910 Tramway Ridge Dr NE in Albuquerque, in the S Y Jackson neighborhood, and it serves up to 110 residents with different levels of care, so you'll find assisted living, memory care, independent living, nursing home care, and even some home healthcare services all in one place, which covers needs from daily help like bathing, dressing, medication management, and meal prep all the way to more specialized support for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, thanks to memory care programs that use things like color-coding and gentle activities to make living there calmer and safer for folks with cognitive issues. The community also has a no smoking policy inside, lets people bring their pets, and provides handicap accessibility and Wi-Fi/high-speed internet for residents. They offer 24-hour staff who help in emergencies, plus meals, beauty services, and both indoor and outdoor common areas where people can socialize or join in group programs, whether it's themed events, classes, or spiritual services onsite and offsite, and they do a care assessment before move-in to make sure each person gets the right support, even as their needs change over time. Brookdale Tramway Ridge has a lot of programs to keep people involved, whether it's cultural food events through their Celebrations program, or hands-on activities onsite or offsite to encourage learning and friendship, and they were even recognized with Best of Senior Living awards for the care they provide. Residents can use complimentary transportation for appointments or outings, and folks have access to local Albuquerque events too, which helps them stay connected. Most of the living spaces are apartments rather than shared rooms, and though there's not a lot of flashy features like pools or gyms, the basics like meals, help with daily life, beauty services, and pet-friendly living are all covered, which many families find important. People can tour the place to see if it's a good fit, and the staff make sure to help everyone keep their independence as much as possible, so whether someone needs just a bit of help or more involved care, they try to match the right services and keep life comfortable, safe, and social.

4910 Tramway Ridge Dr NE, Albuquerque, NM, 87111- Assisted living
- Memory care
Caring staff, clean, but pricey
I toured and moved my mom here - the staff are overwhelmingly caring, professional and welcoming, and the building is clean, bright and homey with nice outdoor spaces and mountain views. Rooms are comfortable but often small (studios tight); the layout helps with safety and wayfinding. Activities and outings are plentiful and social, though memory-care residents sometimes get less stimulation. Dining is generally decent with variety, but portions and quality can be inconsistent. Biggest concerns: understaffing/high turnover, occasional housekeeping/maintenance lapses, billing/administrative issues and a high price. Memory care can feel more like a nursing unit and may not meet advanced medical needs. Overall I had a good experience and would recommend with the caveat to confirm staffing, costs and fit for your loved one.
