Brookdale Ennis sits in Ennis, Texas, and offers a range of senior care services like Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Skilled Nursing, Home Health Care, and Hospice Care, so residents can choose care that fits their needs, and the community provides help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, and medication management, with staff available 24 hours a day. The facility has different types of rooms including semi-private apartments, studios, and single-room units, some with kitchenettes, so there's a bit of choice. Pets are allowed-certain ones anyway-because the community has pet-friendly policies, and there are outdoor patios, gardens, and even a putting green to give residents some outdoor options, plus indoor gathering spots and common areas for socializing or relaxing. Meals are served with comfort in mind, with accommodations for special diets like kosher, vegetarian, low or no sodium, and low fat diets, and the dining setup is communal, inviting residents to eat together when they like.
Health needs like diabetes care, renal care, hospice, medication administration, and visits from occupational and physical therapists get regular attention, and there's a focus on keeping folks active and engaged, with scheduled activities, exercise programs, arts and crafts, cooking clubs, music groups, story time, game nights, and offsite trips to give some variety to daily life. The community runs spiritual and religious services both onsite and offsite, so those wanting to stay connected to their faith can do so, and counseling services are available too, including help during times of transition. Brookdale Ennis has skilled caregivers trained in working with residents who have Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, offering specialized memory care in safe, structured areas meant to reduce confusion and help prevent wandering, and residents get support with grooming, showering, walking, and daily tasks as needed.
Transportation is available, including complimentary rides and companions to doctor's appointments, to help with getting around, and resident parking's available for those who still drive. Housekeeping, laundry, haircuts, barber services, and room service are also on hand, trying to make life a bit simpler, and the facility's licensed by the State, following rules on ethics and staff training, including safety checks like driving records and references for staff. The community has received the Best of Senior Living Award and has a reputation for friendly, helpful, joyful staff, and while there's always more to learn during a tour, Brookdale Ennis tries to make things comfortable for seniors who want to stay active and engaged at their own pace, with tailored care options and a mix of social, physical, and mental activities, all in a setting that's close to local hospitals, doctors, and other Ennis attractions.
