Brookdale Allenmore sits in Tacoma, Washington, and offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, skilled nursing, and continuing care, all in one place, which means folks can stay even if their needs change over time, and they can choose from studios and companion suites to two-bedroom apartments, with each living space offering sizes that include 323, 467, 530, or 710 square feet, featuring comfort and privacy, along with pet-friendly policies for those who want to bring a four-legged friend. Staff stay on site twenty-four hours a day, with nurses available part-time, and specialized caregivers handle needs that range from bathing, dressing, hygiene, and mobility help to medication reminders and skilled care like Hoyer lift transfers, diabetic care, and feed-assist, so residents with higher needs have reliable support any time they need it. A full housekeeping and laundry service, along with maintenance, helps keep things easier, and transportation runs for local appointments, shopping trips, and outings, so getting around doesn't have to be a worry, and residents have guest parking too for friends and family visits.
The dining program focuses on health and enjoyment, offering chef-prepared meals every day in both restaurant-style and private dining rooms, with room service available, and folks can pick special diets such as pureed, feed-assist, low sodium, or low sugar, and enjoy all-day dining options as well. For entertainment, each day comes with a calendar of activities, hobbies, art studio time, music, board games, fitness programs, and group outings to local events, with art classes, billiards in the lounge, Bible study, and facilitated devotional services making it easy for people to find something they like to do, and there's even a visiting chaplain for those who'd like. Wellness and companion care programs help each person stay as healthy and active as possible, using equipment in the gym, joining walking groups in the gardens, or attending group classes in the fitness center, so residents can focus on their wellbeing. Amenities indoors include a communal kitchen, library, mailboxes, TV lounge, hair salon, barber shop, computer room, business center, and fireplace in common rooms, with three stories of living space and lots of floorplans to choose from, so people can find something to fit their routine and tastes, while outdoors you'll see patio seating, gardens, walking paths, and areas for gatherings.
The building has safety and emergency call systems, with 24/7 concierge and staff for any situation, while licensing by the State of Washington and a history under the Brookdale Senior Living brand since 1978 gives a sense of established routines and compliance. The community accommodates people aged 55 and older, offers language support in English and Spanish, and holds an award for Best of Senior Living, though the daily experience is shaped more by detailed personal care plans-reviewed and adjusted often-than any industry recognition, since each service plan tries to fit each resident's changing health and preferences. Brookdale Allenmore also allows pets, offers visitor and resident parking, and runs programs that invite residents to contribute ideas or join outings, keeping life social and varied, while respite care, hospice, and memory support are available for those going through transitions. Skilled nursing, on-site therapy, and memory care staff help folks living with dementia or needing short-term rehab, and personal aids help with every step-from mobility to eating-twenty-four hours a day when needed, with specialized therapy, companion care, or special dining for those who require it. There are options for aging in place, wheelchair accessible showers, and help with everything from showers to picking out clothes, so families and residents can plan for future needs. The place keeps a steady schedule of cleaning, laundry, and dry-cleaning, holds religious and group activities onsite and offsite, and has Wi-Fi, handicap access, gardens, and art studios, combining needed help with daily comforts in a straightforward way.
