Overview of Brookdale Meridian Englewood Brookdale Meridian Englewood is a continuing care retirement community in Englewood, Colorado, offering independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living adds help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication. Skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock.
Having several care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time, because moving to another level does not require leaving the community. The community has 45 beds, creating a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know each other. Housing includes one bedroom and two bedroom options, with a two bedroom layout potentially suiting a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion, while a one bedroom layout provides a single private space. The starting price is $4,370, giving a family an initial figure for budgeting a move, and Renee Bogard serves as the administrator.
Residents have access to a fitness center, pool, salon and spa, and landscaped outdoor spaces. These provide places for exercise, personal grooming, and time outdoors on the property. Brookdale HealthPlus® includes personalized preventive care, support for chronic condition management, and continued care coordination with a dedicated RN Care Manager.
Rehabilitation services and short term rehab support a temporary stay focused on recovery. Respite care provides a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The dining program includes menu choices and opportunities for resident feedback and suggestions, allowing residents to have input into what is served.
Arts and crafts, gardening, and social events give residents activities to take part in. A Walk Score of 75 out of 100 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently. Pets are allowed, so residents may have pets while living in the community.
