Brookdale Fillmore Pond sits in a peaceful spot with a large scenic pond, walking paths, and gardens where residents can enjoy both indoor and outdoor common areas, and the three-story building has elevators for easy access to studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments ranging from 340 to 555 square feet, with kitchens in the apartments and plenty of parking for residents and guests. The community provides several living options, including independent living for active seniors, assisted living with support for daily needs like bathing and medication reminders, memory care in a secure building with care for those with dementia and technology to help prevent wandering, and skilled nursing, along with hospice, respite, and rehabilitation services, all supported by friendly caregivers, a full nursing staff including RNs and LPNs, and a podiatrist. Most areas are wheelchair accessible, with accessible showers and rooms set up for folks with mobility or health problems, and the staff is always present 24 hours a day to help with activities of daily living, monitor behavior, or provide reminders. Residents can bring their cats or dogs and join in a busy calendar of onsite and offsite events, like art classes, yoga, gardening clubs, trips, special interest clubs, worship services, and social programs, as well as enjoy home-cooked meals every day, with restaurant-style dining in a private or community dining room and meal options for special diets. The community offers free rides locally, home care services for those needing companionship or help at home, and amenities like a fitness center, arts and crafts room, beauty and barbershop, porch, and high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the building. Brookdale Fillmore Pond has non-smoking policies indoors, cleaning and laundry services, and a cheerful team who know how to make the place welcoming, respecting privacy while helping anyone who needs more care, even those with behavioral changes or who need incontinence help. The building has safety features like secured memory care sections and staff who track residents who may wander or act out, and all care is matched to each person's needs with tiered prices, so people only pay for the help they use. The community keeps its licenses current and follows all state rules, and many say it has a staff known for being friendly and helpful, with a lively setting that helps people stay connected and as independent as possible for as long as they can.

Caring staff, clean facility, caveats
I moved my father here and overall I'm very pleased - the staff are caring, professional, cheerful, and attentive, and the facility is clean, bright, and beautifully sited in Bennington with well-kept grounds and in-unit kitchens. Care quality is high, residents seem happy, and there are varied activities (exercise, music, games) and a memory unit/three-tier care if needed. Food is generally better than I expected, though some report blandness or small portions. Aides and management can be hit-or-miss, there's limited on-site licensed nursing, and activities aren't always personalized. I'd recommend this facility for most families, but note the medical-staff and personalized-activity limitations.

About Brookdale Fillmore Pond
About Brookdale
Brookdale Fillmore Pond 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.
