Overview of Brookdale Monroe

Brookdale Monroe offers assisted living and memory care in Monroe, WA. Assisted living helps with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps a private living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. With both care levels available, Brookdale Monroe can suit a resident whose needs grow over time without requiring a move to another community.

Respite care provides short stays while a usual caregiver travels or recovers. Studio units give residents a single private living space, and pets are allowed, so a resident can continue living with a pet. Brookdale Monroe has 82 beds.

A pool and fitness center offer places for exercise and recreation, while a salon, barber, and spa bring grooming and personal care services within the community. The community garden and landscaped grounds give residents room for gardening or time outside. Activities include trivia nights, gardening clubs, and painting workshops.

The dining program personalizes meals around residents’ preferences and dietary needs. Rehabilitation services are available for residents who need therapy as part of their care. The area has a Walk Score of 64 out of 100 and is somewhat walkable, meaning some errands can be done on foot; a resident who no longer drives can still complete certain errands independently. The starting price is $7,020, and Medicaid is accepted as a payment option. Brookdale Senior Living is the owner.
