Brookdale Farmers Branch sits in the South Rawhide neighborhood of Farmers Branch, TX, at 13505 Webb Chapel Rd, and serves as a Continuing Care Retirement Community focused on memory care with a dedicated license (#030289) for Alzheimer's care, offering 22 beds in a purpose-built memory care section that's set up in its own building to keep residents with dementia and memory loss safe, and you'll find the building stays locked with alert systems like bracelets and computerized wandering alerts to help staff track residents who might be elopement risks or show strong behavioral needs, since sometimes folks with memory loss can act out or want to leave when it's not safe, so staff are trained for this and watch residents around the clock, while doctors and nurses stay on-call 24 hours a day to support those living in the memory care area and those in assisted living or skilled nursing, and they can manage behavioral problems and help folks with transfers, whether it takes one or two people or a mechanical lift, all in a secure and monitored way.
Staff regularly check on residents, give reminders, and pitch in with basic daily tasks like grooming or toileting, so people get help where they actually need it, and licensed skilled nursing is right there for when medical care becomes important, while hospice and respite care services are available for those who need extra support during life changes or tough times, so families can get help too if things become overwhelming or uncertain. There's a full-time activity director arranging a steady list of activities-gardening, art projects, trivia, Wii bowling, music events, and spiritual services both on and off site for those who want them, plus facilities like indoor and outdoor common areas, a private dining room, and restaurant-style meals cooked up by a professional chef with the ability to make low or no sodium and low or no sugar foods, as well as pet-friendly policies so residents can keep a cat or dog and even get some pet care services if needed.
Apartments are wheelchair accessible, with showers to match, and transportation options include free rides as well as resident parking, though there isn't exact info about parking details, pools, patios, or fitness centers, and there's no word on utility costs or building finishes, but Wi-Fi and high-speed internet are available. The apartments aren't on the sales or rental market right now, and when it comes to the broader neighborhood, there are condos and other types of homes around, but Brookdale Farmers Branch itself focuses on older adults aged 55+ who want independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, or memory care in a maintenance-free, social setting, and the campus lets people move between levels of care as their needs change without having to leave the community.
Every resident gets a personalized care plan to help with meals, social life, and day-to-day needs, and folks can tour the community to see what daily life, dining, and activities are like, and for those living at home, there's even a home care option with aides offering companionship and non-medical help. Recognition for care quality has come with a Best of Senior Living Award-probably given for things like good support through transitions, friendly staff, and safety features designed around dementia, but above all, the focus stays on safety, wellness, and helping people live as well as possible with the right level of support for memory issues or physical needs, so residents feel they have some independence while getting reliable help whenever it's needed.
