Brookdale Vero Beach South is a dual-licensed 90-bed assisted living and dedicated Clare Bridge® Alzheimer's and dementia memory care campus located adjacent to the Vista Royale 55+ corridor at 410 4th Court (Assisted Living building) and 420 4th Court (Dedicated Memory Care building), Vero Beach, Indian River County, Florida (ZIP 32962). Operated by Brookdale Senior Living Communities, Inc., the campus holds two distinct active licenses from the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA): Assisted Living Facility License #AL8798 (AHCA File #11964062, 50 licensed beds at 410 4th Ct) and dedicated Memory Care Assisted Living Facility License #AL9671 (AHCA File #11965283, 40 licensed beds at 420 4th Ct).
Because Brookdale Vero Beach South operates two adjacent, purpose-built buildings on 4th Court just off U.S. Highway 1 and 4th Street (4.2 miles south of Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital), couples with differing care needs—or seniors living in nearby Vista Royale—can transition seamlessly between traditional assisted living (#AL8798) and Brookdale's nationally recognized Clare Bridge® Dementia Program (#AL9671), which provides six daily planned cognitive activities, failure-free 'Daily Path' structure, dementia-friendly dining, and enclosed outdoor walking courtyards. The campus accepts private pay, long-term care insurance, and VA Aid & Attendance wartime pension benefits (acceptsMedicaid: false).
