Licensed bed capacity (maximum allowed). Not the same as how many beds are currently filled.
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Indicates whether residents are allowed to have pets in the facility.
Third-party neighborhood walkability score (0–100). Convenience/context metric, not a healthcare quality measure.
Name of the licensed owner, operator, or managing entity as filed with the state. Useful for grouping facilities under the same organization.
Count of regulatory inspections in the reporting window. Higher volume can reflect more oversight visits, complaint-driven surveys, or routine licensure cycles.

Regulatory visits tied to complaints or allegations in the state file—not the same as every routine survey.
Total count of violations (cited regulatory issues) recorded in the selected reporting period. Read alongside inspection counts for context.
The average number of violations this facility receives each time it's inspected, calculated as total violations ÷ total inspections. A lower number suggests more consistent compliance with safety and care standards.

Overview of Brooklyn Boulevard Alp

Brooklyn Boulevard Alp has been at 636 Louisiana Ave since 2005, so we’re talking roughly twenty years of assisted living in the same Brooklyn neighborhood. The building has 184 beds, and the surrounding area scores a 72 on the Walk Score scale, which is solidly walkable; most everyday errands don’t require a car, and that’s genuinely useful when families are in and out regularly.

What stands out about the clinical side is how much is actually on-site. There are doctors on premises, licensed nurses and CNAs around the clock, and licensed home care services built into the model. Rehabilitation and respite care are both available too, so the community isn’t just for people who need permanent placement; shorter-term stays are an option.

Three meals a day come out of the dining room, and the menus are put together with dietary restrictions, medical needs, and personal preferences in mind, not just a standard rotation. Activities run the range you’d expect: bingo, arts and crafts, fitness classes, current events, and the building itself has a library, beauty parlor, computer room, and transportation. There’s also a chapel and synagogue on-site for residents who want that.

State inspections here have tended to center on care planning and documentation.

Twenty years in, a medical team on the premises, and a full daily service structure under one roof; Brooklyn Boulevard Alp is a solid option for older adults in Brooklyn who don’t want to piece together care from multiple sources.
