Brookdale University Park
Brookdale University Park offers independent living and assisted living in Birmingham, AL. Independent living means private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing and medication while the resident keeps a private apartment. Both care levels are available on one campus, which can suit someone whose needs may grow over time, and respite care offers short stays when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
The community has 60 beds, with studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom residences. A two-bedroom residence can work for a couple moving together or for someone who wants a companion, while a studio offers one private living space. Starting prices are $2,900 per month for independent living and $4,790 per month for assisted living, giving families separate monthly entry points for the two care levels. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet when moving in.
Restaurant-style dining provides prepared meals in a dining setting, and the fitness center gives residents a place to exercise on site. The beauty and barber shop, courtyard and garden add places for personal care and time outdoors, while card games, yoga classes and movie nights offer different ways to spend time with others. Transportation is available for community travel, and Brandon Bornstein serves as the administrator.
With a Walk Score of 84, the area is very walkable, meaning most errands can be done on foot. A resident who no longer drives may still be able to reach nearby shops and services independently.
