Brookdale Sunrise Creek in Montrose offers purposeful living with an engaging atmosphere for seniors seeking to maintain their optimal independence.

Our newly renovated community boasts multiple levels of care, including independent living, assisted living and memory care with breathtaking views of the San Juans. It’s the perfect retirement destination. Our residents thrive by enjoying our beautiful walking paths, dynamic fitness classes, bustling ’50s diner, gourmet dining, social clubs and tailored opportunities for living an optimum life.

“I feel part of a happy family with loving caring staff,” said Bee Helgeson, a resident since 2009. “Life here makes me feel like I’m on an extended vacation. So many extra amenities give this place a touch of class. Life is good here.”

By balancing six key dimensions of wellness (purposeful, physical, emotional, social, spiritual and intellectual), Brookdale’s Optimum Life program helps residents live at their peak level and within a lifestyle that promotes health, wholeness and fulfillment.

Brookdale Sunrise Creek recently celebrated life with an old-fashioned hoedown, residents and guests dancing to tunes from the Broadway musical “Oklahoma.”

“If Chef Mark made his corn bread with buttermilk any better he’d keep it for himself,” resident Billy Sanderford said.

Whether it is kalua pork during a summer luau or resident’s choice wine at the weekly happy hour, residents at Brookdale celebrate life daily.

Brookdale’s program is rooted in a person-centered approach focused on creating feelings of belonging and purpose for our residents while seeking to preserve their identity and self. Visit Brookdale Sunrise Creek at 1968 Sunrise Drive in Montrose today to start your own purposeful journey.
