About Brookdale Briargate

Reclaim your independence while finding the support you need, here at Brookdale Briargate. As an all-inclusive memory care community, residents can find the person-centered care and amenities they need to live a secure, yet fulfilling life. Rest assured, individual care needs can be met promptly and with compassion. Dementia-experienced caregivers are available 24-hours a day, seven days a week to be alerted to an emergency. A 24-hour security system along with keypad entries, way-finding cues, and color-coding features are also used, to promote safety and accessibility for all. Brookdale Briargate also offers two exclusive memory care programs — the Clare Bridge and Solace programs. The Clare Bridge program provides residents with six activities each day to help them flourish and maintain their skills and abilities. Meanwhile, the Solace program caters to residents in the late stages of dementia and provides an additional layer of support. This program also offers specific sensory activities involving music and aromatherapy. To simplify your days even more, Brookdale’s team manages your cooking, cleaning, and home maintenance services. Plus, you can use the postal services, or receive assistance with transportation as needed. Residents who enjoy gardening are encouraged to use the community garden. Some additional perks to look forward to include the relaxing whirlpool, the beauty and barber shop, and the comfortable living room with a fireplace. Community Services and Amenities One of your most difficult decisions here may be deciding which activities to try! Brookdale Briargate's events calendar is filled with daily options. Some activities include brain fitness classes, Mardi Gras socials, and snack-and-chat sessions, as well as "moving and grooving" classes. Residents who enjoy gardening are encouraged to use the community garden and greenhouse, and for those who’d like to relax with a good book, there’s even an on-site library. Another excellent perk this community offers is the Personal Solutions program. If you need assistance with small errands, you can receive the helping hand you need. Simply send the staff a list of items you need, like toothpaste, hair spray, or similar necessities, and the items will be delivered right to your front door. Best of all, there is no fee for the delivery. Living Arrangements Choose from three cozy apartment floor plans ranging from 288 to 360 square feet. The apartments feature a private bathroom, storage space, and windows that allow for plenty of natural light. Some spaces even include a beautiful view of the community garden. An added bonus is that the community is pet-friendly, and you are encouraged to bring your furry friend along. If you’re not sure what to bring and would like a list of suggested items before moving in, Brookdale’s team is more than happy to help. Make yourself at home and embrace a new beginning, here at Brookdale Briargate.

Very impressed and happy with this facility

We were so fortunate to find this memory care facility and are very impressed with how caring all the staff is. The smaller size of residents really makes a difference in the personalized level of care received every day and our mother is very pleased too.

Our Experience

The facility has a home-like feeling. There is a central courtyard that is easy to access and allows for safe outdoor time. The staff are friendly and attentive. I can't specifically speak to move in or housekeeping. But I can reliably say there is a handyman gentleman who is very helpful and responsive. My father in law liked him a great deal. He helped with the move in process and the set up of television and cable. He was regularly available to troubleshoot or assist with a multitude of things.

Great memory care facility

We landed at Briargate after having had a terrible experience at another facility. The staff here at Briargate is top notch. They pay attention to the residents and engage with them in a caring and friendly way while also assessing the daily demeanor of the resident. If my brother feels a little off to them, they let me know. My brother had a medical emergency and the staff immediately called an ambulance, called me to let me know what ER to go to and followed up all week while he was in the hospital. I have comple
