Located in a quiet residential neighborhood in Jacksonville, Florida, you can find Brookdale Avondale conveniently close to many physician’s offices, banks, restaurants, and shopping centers. As a single-story building, residents are able to move a little bit easier around the community. However, assistance with mobility, as well as with activities of daily living like bathing, dressing, and grooming, are provided when they’re needed.

Here, each resident is provided with a comprehensive care package that includes an assessment and a detailed plan. Care plans are flexible and will be adjusted accordingly if needs change over time. Best of all, there are no surprise costs, and you will not pay for a service you don’t truly need. Residents and families can also find peace of mind knowing that trained team members are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to be alerted to any emergencies. Keypad entries and a 24-hour security system have also been installed. Additionally, residents can look forward to nutritious homemade meals and daily social activities, as well as assistance with housekeeping and home maintenance.

Less items on your to-do list equals more time for yourself! Book an appointment at the beauty/barber shop or spend your morning relaxing in the well-stocked library or the game room. The screened lanai and the cozy, fireside living room are also cozy options for you to enjoy in your free time. Embrace your golden years fully at Brookdale Avondale.

Community Services and Amenities

Many residents enjoy filling their daily schedules with things like community fitness classes, art classes, live music, card games, and more. With an abundance of options to choose from, you’ll likely find an activity that speaks to your passions or interests. The colorful courtyard and garden are two popular places to congregate with peers and unwind. However, if you’d like to take an adventure off-site, transportation assistance is available.

Another bonus is the Personal Solutions program. Through this community program, team members deliver your requested personal hygiene items to you at no cost for delivery. Do you need deodorant, toothpaste, or other specific items? Simply send the team a list and your items will be left discreetly at your door. At last, the simple life is within reach.

Each room includes plenty of natural light, accessible bathrooms, and ample space for storage and photos. If you need help moving or have questions, be sure to reach out to the staff directly.

  • My review of Brookdale

    We chose Brookdale because of the location, and we checked it out and we were very happy with it. We went in at the most inopportune time during Covid and from day 1 from going we have been impressed with how they have handled the situation. The room sizes here compared to a normal studio apartment are a little larger than average. I would tell others that residents cannot get out of the building, it is very secure and safe. I would recommend to others looking.

  • We Wouldn't Return to This Community

    Our first experience was great, so we decided to place our loved one for a second time at this community. The second time wasn't great. The room was dirty for our loved one. There were personal belongings that were missing and we never found the items. We had trouble with follow through of calls and the care of our loved one. Overall, we weren't happy with the care of our loved one.

    Every time I have been there the community has been clean; they do a great job. The staff reaches out to me a lot to discuss my mother's care. They really have gotten to know her and her needs and are always thoughtful with her. With the Covid-19 pandemic, they have been very on top of protecting the residents and testing them and have communicated with us regularly about what they are doing. Brookdale Avondale is definitely a good value for the price.
