Brookdale Chenal Heights sits in a single-story building designed for easy access and safety, and folks living here can choose from studio or one-bedroom apartments with comfortable features like private or semi-private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and living areas that give you space to move around, and you'll see that each unit has emergency call systems, cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, and controlled access to help residents feel secure. This place welcomes pets, so people can bring their animal companions, and there's staff on duty around the clock, ready to help out whenever needed, especially for things like bathing, dressing, managing medicines, or if there's an emergency. You'll find activities going on all the time-from art classes and community walking clubs to educational programs, social events, and even the InTouch travel program that uses picture screens to help residents with physical or memory challenges enjoy new experiences. Residents visit a fitness center, a beauty salon, and spacious common rooms designed for relaxing, socializing, or joining group games, and the outdoor patio has comfortable seating for fresh air. The dining room serves chef-prepared meals that meet different dietary needs, so people don't need to worry if they have restrictions. Brookdale Chenal Heights offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and continuing care options, so people can get more help if their needs change. Memory care programs support people with Alzheimer's or dementia in a secure setting with trained staff, and therapies like occupational therapy, wound care, or medication support are all provided too. Residents get help with daily tasks from personal care assistants, along with laundry and housekeeping, scheduled transportation for doctor visits or errands, and even podiatry care. The building has safety and handicap-friendly features, sprinklers, washers and dryers, maintenance, and guest parking. There's a strong focus on wellness, community, and aging actively, with many signature programs, frequent events, and resident-centered care that adapts to each person's needs, and all around it's a busy, supportive place for older adults to live with peace of mind.

Pleasant facility with important caveats
I moved my mom here and overall I'm pleased-bright, clean, safe facility with very spacious rooms and welcoming common areas. Staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful with families; move-in was smooth and the community offers lots of activities and transportation. Meals and dining are generally good but opinions vary-some call them restaurant-quality, others find them cafeteria-style or mediocre. My biggest concerns are memory-care supervision, occasional slow responses, staff turnover, medication and billing errors reported by others. I feel the place provides good care and peace of mind for many, but recommend close attention to meds, staffing, and invoices.

About Brookdale Chenal Heights
About Brookdale
Brookdale Chenal Heights is managed by Brookdale.
Brookdale Senior Living Inc. (NYSE: BKD) is the largest senior living operator in the United States, managing over 640 communities with capacity for approximately 59,000 residents across 41 states and employing around 36,000 associates. Founded in 1978 and publicly traded since 2005, Brookdale solidified its market leadership through major acquisitions including American Retirement Corporation (2006) and Emeritus Senior Living (2014), making it the only national full-spectrum senior living company. Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, Brookdale has topped the American Seniors Housing Association's ASHA 50 list and Argentum's largest providers list for multiple consecutive years.
The company's comprehensive care continuum includes independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). Brookdale's signature Clare Bridge program, developed over 30 years ago by dementia-care experts, provides specialized Alzheimer's and dementia care through two distinct levels: Clare Bridge communities for comprehensive memory support and the Clare Bridge Solace program for advanced-stage dementia residents. The program is recognized by the Alzheimer's Association® for incorporating evidence-based Dementia Care Practice Recommendations and features secure environments, enclosed courtyards, Daily Path programming with six structured activities daily, and the InTouch technology platform offering personalized brain-stimulating games and therapeutic content.
Brookdale's holistic Optimum Life® wellness approach balances six dimensions—Purposeful, Physical, Emotional, Social, Spiritual, and Intellectual—implemented through signature programs including B-Fit (eight exercise class options), Brain Fit (mental fitness workouts), My Life Story (resident storytelling), EngagementPlus (interest-based connections), Growing Together (collaborative learning), and The Ageless Spirit (kindness and gratitude practices). The Embrace Family Partnership provides caregiver education and support for families of memory care residents.
The company's Brookdale HealthPlus® care coordination model, winner of the 2024 Argentum Best of the Best Award placing it among the top 1% of operators, is a technology-enabled healthcare service featuring dedicated RN Care Managers who proactively manage residents' health, coordinate care transitions, and help prevent avoidable hospitalizations. Communities using HealthPlus report 78% fewer urgent care visits, 36% fewer hospitalizations, and 63% more completed annual wellness visits. The Personal Solutions program delivers hygiene products, medications, and daily necessities directly to residents' doors with discreet packaging and monthly billing convenience.
Following a strategic divestiture of its home health and hospice operations to HCA Healthcare (completed December 2023), Brookdale now focuses exclusively on senior living operations while maintaining its position as the industry's largest operator, committed to its mission of enriching lives with compassion, respect, excellence, and integrity.
