  • Brookdale Charleston Gardens Description

    Just three short blocks from the Kanawha River is a senior living community where residents receive fantastic care designed for fantastic seniors. Brookdale Charleston Gardens offers assisted living and memory care in the Charleston, West Virginia area. With a continuum of care between our assisted living and memory care programs, we support those needing some assistance with daily activities and others who have Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia. Residents here have the security of knowing that if their needs change over time, they can remain here, in their home, without having to relocate and separate from their familiar surroundings and friendships.

    We are conveniently located in a quiet location only minutes from downtown, near various banks, the post office, as well as Coonskin Park and Kanawha State Forest. Several medical facilities are nearby including CAMC, St. Francis and Thomas Hospitals. Life here means fewer worries, more options for living life well, and because we’ll be handling all of the cooking, cleaning, and other household chores, you’ll have more time than ever to enjoy them.
