Memory loss doesn t have to mean all is lost. If you and your family are looking for a memory care community, Brookdale Fort Collins can help. Our Alzheimer's and dementia care community, also known as Clare Bridge, is rooted in a person-centered approach . That means we help our residents find a sense of belonging and purpose while also helping them preserve who they are. We also have our Clare Bridge Crossings program which is designed for individuals in the early stages of Alzheimer s or dementia. While not appropriate for all persons with dementia, this program is often a stepping stone between assisted living and our Clare Bridge program.
Where state-of-the-art care meets a passion for painting, residents stay engaged with a gentle daily structure of planned activities to help them maintain their abilities and encourage the use of their current skills. Brain games, dancing, cooking classes and music programs are just a few of the ways our residents enjoy their days. Along with our programming, you ll have peace of mind knowing that trained staff is on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The Clare Bridge Daily Path is an evidence-based approach that offers a gentle daily structure of six planned programs per day, our routine that helps our residents maintain their abilities, encourage the use of their current skills, and offer a sense of security and accomplishment. Working in small cluster groups, each resident is surrounded by others with the same cognitive abilities, to give them a feeling of fitting in. Activities include a morning cognitive workout with discussions, brain games and physical fitness and movement classes like our B-Fit program, walking programs, and dancing.

And you and your family have several floor plans to choose from. We help our families make our residents apartments familiar and comfortable with a move-in guide and a suggested list of what to bring. Brookdale Fort Collins is a pet-friendly community because we know it s not really home without our four-legged family members with us.

People living with dementia are at a greater risk for poor nutrition and weight loss. That s why we use mealtime as an opportunity to offer healthy menu choices and create a sense of belonging. With our award-winning Clare Bridge dining program, our residents enjoy dementia-friendly menus with familiar and easy-to-manage selections, small dining rooms with consistent pre-selected seating and personal dining assistance.
Residents can enjoy spending sunny days outside in our large courtyard or meeting up with friends in the game room to work on a puzzle. Or they can join a cooking demonstration in the community kitchen. And residents love our convenient on-site beauty salon and barbershop for hair appointments.
