Services

Brooklyn United Methodist Church Home is a 5 Star, 120-bed skilled nursing facility, providing 24-hour skilled care to the debilitated and chronically ill. We are fully equipped to give comprehensive, quality care to persons recovering from stroke, major surgery, and accidents; and to those afflicted with any of a multitude of ailments.

Attending physicians, a medical director, and a full complement of consulting physicians are available to provide a complete range of medical, dental and podiatric services.

The Home provides a wide range of therapies to residents guided by our family of sensitive and skilled care-givers who believe each resident is a unique, special individual. These include speech, occupational, music, and physical therapy.

Each floor accommodates forty residents in double and single rooms, each with a private sink and toilet. Residents are welcome to bring personal belongings, and may have TVs, radios, and telephones in their rooms. Spacious lounge rooms on each floor are used for activities and socializing.

Delicious meals are freshly prepared in our kitchen by the house chef in cooperation with our food services director. Our licensed staff dietician supervises special dietary requirements.

Residents are offered a varied program of activities, including arts and crafts, movies, concerts, games, and patio barbecues in warm weather. The Residents’ Council gives all interested residents the opportunity to voice suggestions and concerns about life at the Home.

The bright dining room is the scene of birthday, anniversary, and holiday parties planned for residents. Live entertainment is frequently provided. We also have a library, beauty parlor/barber shop, and a lovely outdoor patio.

Every effort is made to ensure that residents feel and remain a part of the community by outings to local events such as concerts and picnics. Volunteers from churches, schools, and community organizations participate in programs at the facility. Regularly scheduled Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish services and activities are held in our chapel.

We provide a person-centered therapeutic music approach (Music & Memory) to assist with the management of residents with cognitive and physical ailments, as well as those in need of behavior modification. Working with residents, family or friends to build the personal music library of each resident, we then develop the resident’s personalized music playlist. 

The Music & Memory program is an effective activity/intervention intended to enhance the resident’s mood and improve the overall quality of life. There is mounting research demonstrating that music can reduce the agitation of dementia, lessen anxiety, reduce pain and lower blood pressure.
