Azura Assisted Living and Memory Care of Brookfield

Azura Assisted Living and Memory Care of Brookfield sits on historic Mierow Farm land where it keeps some of the old farm features like a barn, a community garden, and a seasonal farm stand, which residents use for activities or just to spend some quiet time outside, and you'll find four different homes on the property, with Elmbrook and Mierow focusing on memory care for people with dementia or Alzheimer's disease and Broadway and Wirth set up for assisted living to help folks stay independent as long as possible with the right level of support when they need it. The whole place is designed to be safe and comfortable for people with memory loss, with things like handicap access and clear layouts to help prevent confusion or wandering. Staff receive over 120 hours of dementia-specific training in their first three months and stick to the MOSAIC philosophy, which means they make a point to learn about each person's life story and abilities, figuring out care plans that maintain dignity and help residents enjoy everyday life, whether that's offering help with behavior changes like sundowning or anxiety, setting up daily moments of joy, or helping with incontinence. The Brookfield location is one among a few Azura communities-there are other Azura Memory Care places in Milwaukee, Fox Point, Oak Creek, Wausau, and so on-while here in Brookfield, you can see it's split into sections, called Brookfield A, C, and D, each set up for different care needs. Residents get nutritious, chef-prepared meals, seasonal menus, and an Always Available Menu, plus access to good Wi-Fi, pet-friendly areas, and an active calendar of social events and therapies to keep folks engaged. Caregivers watch over a small group of residents compared to most places and a Registered Nurse provides oversight. The staff get to know everyone by name and routine, which really helps with comfort, friendships, and routine, and the aim is always to let people live meaningful lives, stay as independent as possible, and join in on regular outings, garden projects, or whatever makes their days brighter, all while staying safe and cared for. The community's earned awards for friendly staff, good food, and engaging activities, and it shows in small ways, like how everyone's encouraged to take part in things based on what they like and can do, rather than a one-size-fits-all schedule, so whether someone needs support early on or in later dementia stages, Azura in Brookfield pays attention to the unique details that come with memory care and assisted living.
