Pacific Living Centers of Medford at Brookhurst

Pacific Living Centers of Medford at Brookhurst sits on Brookhurst Street in Medford and serves as a residential care facility with a focus on smaller, cozy living. The home has 14 memory care beds, designed for seniors living with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia, and the rooms and common spaces feel more like a house than an institution, decorated to be comfortable and familiar, and offering short hallways and open kitchens, which helps residents move about easily and even take part in cooking. The community provides several levels of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home, long-term care, and even hospice, so people can get more help as their needs change, and there's also home care and adult day services if someone doesn't want or need to live there full time. The facility offers many kinds of rooms, with kitchens or kitchenettes and washers and dryers, and the building has safety and handicap features along with a sprinkler system for fire protection, secure entry, and key code visitor access to keep residents safe, while the grounds are clean, spacious, and suitable for walking or enjoying the outdoors. Staff at Brookhurst aim to build a caring, family-like environment, and the small number of residents in the memory care part helps them offer close attention and comfort, with people saying it's more like a family home than a big facility. There are health services such as nursing, wound care, podiatry, occupational therapy, medication support, and personal care assistants help with tasks like dressing and grooming. The meals can be tailored for special diets and everyone can dine together, and there are activities like arts and crafts, social gatherings, educational programs, and health and wellness classes. Residents have access to a fitness center, garden, game room, salon/barbershop, cable TV, internet, parking for guests, and even transportation if they need it, plus someone keeps the place clean, does the laundry, and takes care of the rooms. Financial guidance and various payment plans are available, including options for long-term care insurance, and people interested in moving in or just learning more can schedule a tour or an assessment to see the place and meet the staff and residents. There are photos to look at if you want to get a feel for the community before visiting.
