3 Independent Living Communities in Lauderdale County, Mississippi

Catherine

Compared to the other living community in Meridian, Brookdale Meridian is smaller, more quaint, and easier to get around. The staff is very helpful and willing to work with me. They hav a memory care unit for people with dementia or Alzheimer's. My mother is not there yet, but that is there for her if she needs it. They have a bus to take the residents out shopping if they want to go and take them out to dinner once a week. They have different church functions and family night where the residents could have their family members over for dinner while someone plays the piano. Everything is decorated like the romantic era of Jane Austen. It's very nice. They go an extra step to make you feel comfortable, and they're always there for emotional support if you need it.

My father has already moved into Brookdale Florence. Their facilities are nice and clean, their food is delicious, they care about those living there, and they are pretty busy. They have Bingo and dominos. Dad's got a living area and a bedroom attached, big enough for 1 person in his situation, which is very clean and comfortable. They have good amenities like televisions in the lobby and the residents' rooms.
