At Brookdale Shawnee, residents benefit from specialized environments, consistent care assignments, and exclusive memory care programming. Here, dementia-experienced team members work with each resident to learn about and meet their evolving needs.

Through the use of gentle reminders and specialized techniques, like physical prompting and cueing, residents are able to thrive here in a safe and supportive space. Rest assured, staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to be alerted to an emergency. The community also includes an alert system, secured entrances and exits, and enclosed walking areas to provide additional security. Residents of this community receive access to personalized programming through Brookdale’s two memory care programs: Clare Bridge and Solace. The Clare Bridge program provides six stimulating activities each day to residents with dementia, enabling them to flourish and maintain their skills. Meanwhile, the Solace program caters specifically to those in the late stages of dementia. This program provides an additional layer of care and more time for grooming. It also offers sensory activities involving music and aromatherapy.

Community Services and Amenities

Dementia-friendly activities are planned regularly for residents and may include group mental workouts, and physical exercise classes like dancing or walking. Residents can also take advantage of the community’s amenities, including a sports bar, a cozy living room, a beauty and barber shop, and the well-stocked library. Those who enjoy the outdoors may prefer to spend some of their spare time mingling or relaxing in the community courtyard or garden. Another perk this community has to offer is a free and convenient delivery service — the Personal Solutions program. All you have to do is send staff members a list of items you would like, such as body wash, hearing aid batteries, or other necessities. From there, you can sit back and relax while they are picked up and delivered discreetly to your doorstep. Best of all, you will not be charged a delivery fee.

Living Arrangements

Choose from five pet-friendly floor plans, which include wall-to-wall carpeting, plenty of natural light, and a private bathroom. If you need help with the transition or would like some suggestions about what items to bring, Brookdale’s team is prepared to help. Bring your favorite items to help decorate and enjoy your golden years at Brookdale Shawnee.

  • Happy Overall

    We've been happy overall. I feel like the activities are one of the most important things for us. They do a really good job keeping the residents busy. I like that they try to keep everybody in the main areas where they can keep an eye on them, and my loved one isn't just sitting in her room by herself. The cost seems pretty fair and in line with other places.

  • Great Care for The Resident and Family

    I'm pretty happy with the community. My loved one is very happy here. The area and rooms are always clean. The residents are always well put together by the staff. You can tell the residents are being well taken care of. Every time I've visited the residents are doing items in the communal areas. The staff keep me up-to-date on my loved one. The communication is amazing! They have music once or twice a week. There is always some activity available for the residents. I think the value is there. My loved one feels relaxed there. The rooms feel more like an apartment, and this still helps with the independence.

  • my experience during covid

    The community was extremely friendly and they went out there to take care of my loved one. When I first walked in it just felt right and I wish we would move her in sooner. I would recommend this community to others.
