Brookdale Tavares offers assisted living, memory care, independent living, skilled nursing, and even at-home care, and you'll find that the building has both a secured environment for memory care residents and an easy-to-navigate layout so folks don't get confused or lost, with professional staff available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergencies, help with medication, and day-to-day support such as eating, bathing, grooming, mobility, and hygiene, and there's always a part-time nurse on staff, plus caregivers are trained through special programs to provide the right kind of help for each resident's needs. The place has a quiet neighborhood location near local shops and cafés, with licensed services under #8906, and the grounds have private and enclosed outdoor areas, like a courtyard, patio, and gardens, with walking paths and areas for gardening, so people who like the outdoors can spend time getting fresh air or taking a stroll. Inside there are open spaces for gathering, entertainment rooms, game spaces, a movie room/theater, a TV lounge, an arts and crafts center, indoor recreation areas, a library with fireplaces, and even a beauty salon and barbershop on site, so residents don't have to go far for a haircut or to spend time with friends.
Meals follow a dining program with three balanced meals every day, snacks when requested, and a choice of special diets like gluten-free, vegan, organic, low/no sodium, and low/no sugar, served restaurant-style, with private dining rooms for families or guests, and yes, there's room service if someone prefers to eat in their room, plus guest meal services for visitors. Health and safety features include emergency pull cords, wheelchair accessible showers, light therapy, and staff trained in aging in place, so people can stay even if their care needs change. The community has daily housekeeping and laundry, coordinated rides for outings and appointments, and free transportation with convenience to bus lines, so families don't need to worry about getting around. Social, educational, and religious events are available regularly, from Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish services to visiting chaplains and rabbis, and cultural programs, plus there are field trips, hobby and game groups, and activities onsite and offsite to keep folks engaged.
Brookdale Tavares works with each resident and their families to create flexible, personalized care plans, and offers both respite care and hospice if needed. Residents can bring pets, enjoy community blogs like Brookdale Blogs, and participate in signature programs and wellness activities aimed at promoting meaningful living and redefined independence, so people can stay active as they age. The community also offers support with medication reminders, care coordination with outside healthcare providers, concierge services, and special amenities like parking for residents who still drive, and everything is designed to help seniors live well and feel at home, whether people need full support or just a little help now and then.
