As work continued at the building site, it was a week of behind-the-scenes work for the staff. Traffic through the model room at Cornerstone Shopping Center increased, and several more rooms are now spoken for. Prospective residents and their families are enjoying the advantage of touring the building and actually seeing what everything looks like and where everything is. The fact that the building is beautiful is a big help, as well!
Staffing issues took up a great deal of administrative time. The teams for both buildings are coming together, and there is growing excitement among those in the group to be able to officially start their new positions with Brookfield.
Dr. Daniel Owens has agreed to act as Medical Director for our community. We are excited about what that will mean for our residents. Dr. Owens will visit the community once a month to check on each resident, and will be available at other times as needed.
Plans for the Open House continue to move along. The box of invitations has arrived, and we are compiling the mailing list for those. The date will be here before we know it. Mark your calendars for September 24th, 25th, and 26th, and be sure to come out and visit our beautiful new community on one of those dates!

Construction Progress
It’s beginning to look like a home in the Brookfield of Hot Springs Assisted Living building! The work crews have been hard at work, and their efforts show. With carpeting laid throughout the building, handrails running the length of the halls, and ceiling fans turning lazily in the community living room, it’s a very welcoming atmosphere to greet our prospective residents and their families when they come to tour.
Except for a few cosmetic touches here and there, the 42 rooms are finished, and will soon be ready for occupancy.
The reception/office area is also coming along well, and will be a welcoming entry point for visitors in the future.
Meanwhile, the sod has been laid in the inner courtyard, and the trees are ready to be planted when the heat breaks. The little patio areas are ready to welcome residents’ outside furniture, bird houses and flower containers.
Work in the Memory Care building is progressing nicely, still a few weeks behind the AL building, but on track to welcome residents in mid-October.
Response has been very positive this week from those who have toured the building, and the excitement is growing in the community at large about what Brookfield will mean for Hot Springs and the surrounding areas.
We’re busily compiling lists of those we want to specially invite to our Open House in the AL building on September 24, 25 and 26. It’s going to be a great party, and the more the merrier! Until then, our office in Cornerstone is still the ‘hub’ of our Hot Springs operation, and this week, we’ve seen an increase in interest from those in the community who are looking for the services we offer. That’s as exciting to us as the building progress! We can’t wait to be in our new home, welcoming residents into their new home.
