Brookdale Carmel is an Indiana senior living community dedicated to providing specialized memory care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia. Emphasizing a person-centered approach, Brookdale Carmel strives to preserve routines, abilities, and connections that help residents feel secure and engaged. The care team prioritizes consistency in assignments whenever possible, fostering personalized and meaningful experiences for each individual. This dedication extends to both their exclusive Clare Bridge program, created more than three decades ago for residents in mid to late stages of dementia, and their Solace program, designed to meet the unique needs of those in advanced stages of cognitive decline. These purposeful programs are supported by a compassionate staff focused on nurturing each resident’s abilities and maintaining a sense of well-being.
Life at Brookdale Carmel is enriched by comfortable amenities and robust services aimed at easing the day-to-day lives of both residents and their families. Residents enjoy private apartments, dining, housekeeping, and access to a variety of common areas such as the Community Living Room, Cafe, Community Kitchen, Recreation Room, Salon, and Courtyard. The facility’s thoughtful design helps create a supportive environment tailored to the needs of seniors experiencing cognitive challenges. Physical therapy and gardening stations offer opportunities for activity and engagement, while the comfortable apartment bedrooms and bathrooms provide privacy and familiarity.
For added convenience, Brookdale Carmel offers a Personal Solutions program. Through this service, residents or their families can easily request delivery of personal care items, such as toothpaste, mouthwash, hygiene products, hearing aid batteries, and more, directly to their apartment. Orders are charged directly to the resident’s monthly bill, and items arrive in discreet, plain packaging to respect privacy. Recurring monthly shipments or one-time deliveries ensure flexibility to meet individual needs. This focus on convenience means less time spent shopping and more time enjoying life and relationships within the community.
