Overview of Brookdale Great Bend

Brookdale Great Bend is an assisted living community in Great Bend, KS. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while allowing a resident to maintain their own living space. The community may suit a resident who needs this daily support and wants to live in a suite, and Brookdale Senior Living operates the community. Assisted living starts at $5,155 per month, giving families a stated monthly amount to include in their budget.

A suite is the listed housing option, and pets are allowed, so a resident may keep a pet in the community. Wheelchair accessibility supports residents who use wheelchairs in moving through community spaces. A Walk Score of 36 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride; the community’s transportation service gives residents another way to reach destinations. A salon and spa, courtyard and garden, and personalized dining program with resident input provide on-site options for grooming, outdoor time, and participation in dining decisions, while respite care offers short-term stays when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover.
