Questions about The Gardens at Brook Ridge
The Gardens memory care facility is designed to mimic home while reducing or eliminating the risk of injury that exists at home. This means that your loved one will have semi-private living quarters that consist of a warm, inviting bedroom and a spacious bathroom. Other, central living areas are shared by the community and include relaxing sitting rooms, communal kitchens and dining rooms, a movie theater, chapel, library, secured outdoor living areas, and more.
Life enrichment activities are hosted within our memory care neighborhood, too, and are designed to enrich a resident’s life without posing a threat to their safety and security. These include wellness and fitness programs, on-site social events, cultural excursions, and much more.
We ensure our employees receive the training and development they need to not only care for but also empower our residents to lead independent and enriched lives. Both classroom and hands-on training — designed specifically for caregivers in the memory care setting — are required upon hire and continue on an ongoing basis. This ensures two things:
1. Basic concepts and best practices are refreshed at least annually, and
2. New research and innovations are considered and incorporated into training for cutting-edge care.

Yes. Every resident who joins our Pharr, TX community brings something new. Needs are driven by physical, mental, and emotional health; religious preference; medical history; personal history; family status; cultural identity; and more. For this reason, our experienced memory care planning team works directly with residents and their families to build a custom care plan focused on goal achievement. Common goals include fall prevention, blood pressure management, life enrichment, socialization, comfort, and maintaining independence. Changes in the care plan require family involvement, so you’ll always know exactly what to expect and have a voice in decisions concerning your loved one.
Providing quality care and services to residents and their families is important to us. Each resident is assessed quarterly or upon a significant change of condition. Rates will change – either up or down – as individual needs change.
