Assisted Living, Memory Care, Independent Living, Nursing Home

Are you ready for more adventures and fewer chores? At Brookdale Greenwood Village in Greenwood Village, Colorado, we’ll help you live your best life with more time for what you want to do. And because we’re a continuing care retirement community (CCRC), you’ll have access to three levels of care on one campus, including assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing, so you can enjoy the lifestyle you want with the care you need. By definition, a CCRC is a senior living community that provides multiple levels of care at one community. So what does that mean for you? At Brookdale Greenwood Village, that means you will likely be able to live in the same community, even if your needs change over time. And we’re a rental CCRC. That means you’ll pay a monthly rental fee, plus monthly fees based on the level of care and services you need. Brookdale Greenwood Village is a luxury senior living community in Greenwood Village, just south of Denver with easy access to Highway 87. The town has an open feel with more than 300 acres of parks and 100 acres of undeveloped open space. There's also a trail system with 40 miles of scenic walking and biking areas. Our campus sits on beautifully landscaped grounds with a courtyard and lovely gardens, and our community's convenient location gives our families easy access to all the Denver area offers. Sometimes as we get older, we need a little extra help. You'll have assistance with medications, dressing and bathing, if you need it, as well as housekeeping and meals. We can also help coordinate your care with outside healthcare providers. So do the things you love to do, and let us help with the rest. Because when it comes to chores, less is more-more time for you to do what you want to do.…
