Thank you for visiting and taking the time to share your thoughts about our community. We realize that our rooms are smaller than many expect. Most of our residents are downsizing, which can be a difficult transition. They do not need as many items in our setting, as we provide many items and activities!

Our Brookdale-created Signature Seasonings add flavor to a variety of dishes and Chef can help you pick the right ones, without the need for added salt.
