Quality Care With Great Service
As an Assisted Living community, our trained staff is there to assist seniors with personal needs, in the privacy of their suite/apartment. We provide assistance with bathing or showering, selection of clothing, dressing assistance, grooming, hygiene, mobility and transferring and dining assistance. The emphasis is on providing a wonderful Assisted Living lifestyle, allowing you to do what you can and helping you remain as independent as possible.
We partner with each resident to create a personalized Assisted Living plan, tailored for their specific needs. Then we continually check-in and monitor residents to see if their needs have changed and adjust the plans accordingly.
Life at Brookdale South Bend
From the moment you step through our doors for your first visit, we think you’ll find our staff to be some of the best people in the business. We go the extra mile to make you feel valued at our community.
Our community features private senior apartments, as well as charming community areas that provide the perfect setting for socializing, dining and entertaining. Specially designed, every area of Brookdale South Bend is easily accessible for those with limited mobility.
Integral to life at our community are the programs, outings and opportunities for our residents. Our philosophy incorporates residents’ individual interests, as well as opportunities that allow them to make meaningful contributions to each other and to the community.
One of the ways we do that is through our Optimum Life program. Through Optimum Life, we look at six of what we call “individual wellness dimensions”: purposeful, emotional, physical, social, spiritual and intellectual.
We have found through our years of caring for people that each of these areas is crucial to emotional and physical wellness. We then tailor a wellness plan and activity schedule specifically for you emphasizing each of these six different areas.
