At Brookdale Eagan, located near Fish Lake Park in a quiet residential neighborhood, we have the deep experience to understand the complexity of Alzheimer s and dementia at every stage, so if you and your family are considering care for a loved one with dementia, we can help. Our person-centered approach to dementia care is carefully structured to give each resident purpose and a sense of security that they are right where they need to be.
Memory care services in a safe, comfortable, home-like environment are the unique contribution we can make to your loved one s well-being and quality of life. And for you, there s peace of mind knowing we have trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Each day, residents here are engaged in such activities as art projects, puzzles, live music, bowling, socializing at get-togethers, dancing, playing trivia games or getting manicures. Maybe they re singing karaoke, playing cards, reminiscing together about the old days, Bible study, getting coffee with a friend or attending movie nights. Each of these activities is enjoyable, but they re part of a carefully designed care program to help our residents live their best life.
Memory care residents thrive in an environment that feels comfortable and familiar, so we offer a friendly, home-like environment where cozy common living areas and inviting patios and courtyards naturally draw people together. Easy-to-navigate floor plans and extra details, such as soothing wall colors, provide all the comforts of home so our residents feel safe and not overwhelmed. With monitored entries and exits and an enclosed courtyard and garden, residents remain safe while having complete freedom of movement. The picturesque centerpiece of our community is Town Square, an indoor charming re-creation of the center of a small town with cobblestones, faux storefronts and lamp post.
While our common areas are designed for socializing, our private and companion suites, all located on one floor for easy access, offer residents their own quiet, restful haven. You can choose which floor plan best fits your loved one s needs. They feature a 24-hour emergency response system, private baths and large windows to let in abundant natural light. Our apartments are a place for your loved one to be surrounded by, and find comfort in, his or her own familiar furnishings, treasured family photos and keepsakes.
With gentle guidance and visual reminders, we can help your loved one flourish in activities such as gardening, kitchen work and other projects that provide the opportunity to use meaningful life skills and talents he or she already has even when dementia is advanced.
Our supportive dining environment encourages familiarity and socialization during mealtime. Three nutritious, chef-prepared, home-style meals, along with snacks, are served daily in our dining area. Entrees include such dishes as roast turkey, grilled margarita chicken, baked tilapia and classic meatloaf. We keep mealtimes very routine to help alleviate any confusion or added stress.
Deeply rooted in a person-centered approach, our Alzheimer s and dementia care is called the Clare Bridge program, where each resident is surrounded by others with the same cognitive abilities, to give them a feeling of fitting in.
The Clare Bridge Daily Path provides residents with a structured, yet fun, routine of activities discussions for mental workouts, dancing for physical exercise that help maintain their abilities and encourage the use of their current skills, even with advanced expressions of the disease. The Daily Path is carefully structured to give each resident purpose and a sense of security that they are right where they need to be. And, of course, you ll have peace of mind knowing there is trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
