Westminster, California Assisted Living and Memory Care Services

Independent and Retirement Living

Independent living communities, also called retirement living, offer a safe, secure and social environment for active, independent seniors. They are usually set up as apartments , small patio homes, or cottages. Often, the staff provides specific services and amenities for retirees who live an active lifestyle.

Assisted Living Services

Every resident is different, so every resident's plan of care is different. Our independent residents have chosen Emeritus at Brookhurst to let us do the chores like laundry, housekeeping and cooking, but retain their freedom and choice. However, you can rest assured in knowing that we can provide whatever assisted living services to help with the daily living tasks that you may require. Our nursing staff and wellness coordinators continually monitor our residents to make certain that not only quality care -- but appropriate care -- is provided to each and every resident.

Alzheimer's and Dementia Care Services

Our Join Their Journey program encourages residents affected with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease to connect with long term memories of themselves that they are still able to retrieve. By connecting to those long term memories, residents with dementia, or Alzheimer's, are able to retain a sense of self. This is a very important factor to maintaining a high quality of life for our seniors living with dementia or Alzheimer's. Our specially-trained staff joins the resident's journey, any place and any time. Whether our resident's journey means reminiscing about memories of eating hot dogs on Coney Island in 1942, or giving her new baby his first bath, or remembering a trip taken long ago to a homeland. Reassurance, security, kindness and love are what we strive to achieve for each resident every day.
