  • Brookdale University Park Description

    Located on Denver’s southern edge between Englewood and Glendale, the independent and assisted living seniors at Brookdale University Park have traded in their hedge clippers for a whole new way of living. If you’re ready to trade in the chores and responsibilities of things like cooking, cleaning and home maintenance, you can join them and redefine what it means to be independent. For some, it means using their newfound time freedom to invest in relationships with beloved friends and family members. For others, it means savoring the opportunity to rekindle a former hobby or learn a new skill.

    No matter how you want to embrace your golden years, you can do it here, surrounded by a warm and welcoming community of residents and a kind and compassionate care team who are available on campus 24 hours a day, seven days a week in case you need a little extra help throughout the day.
