ThriveMore is proud to announce our partnership with Rachael Wonderlin and her team at Dementia By Day to develop our signature dementia care program, Mindful Impressions. We have refocused and rebranded the type of care we are providing and have our first implementation ready at Brookridge. Visit the Mindful Impressions page to see how residents living with cognitive impairments are able to receive more emotional and psychological support when they need it most.

What Our
Residents Are Saying

“I was looking for an active community that felt like home. It was also important to me to have an outside space — a door that opened into the hallway and also a door to the outside. When I walked into the first apartment, saw the kitchen and the balcony, I knew it would be my home.”

Jo Ellen Scott

“When you consider that you are living among many different personality types, the camaraderie at Brookridge is amazingly good! Betty and I are exceedingly pleased at the quickness with which we were accepted into the community.”

Frank and Betty Joiner

“We prayed as we searched for a place to spend the rest of our lives. The staff was friendly, helpful, and followed through with every detail. Brookridge provided opportunities that would meet our physical, spiritual, emotional, and fellowship needs. We have maintenance-free living in our home, which gives us more time to do what we like best. It was financially affordable. Our children were impressed with the facility. After almost four years, we have never regretted our decision.”

Deryl and Ruth Holliday

"My wife and I moved into Taylor Glen in early 2007 after visiting here once. We had looked at other like facilities but found this one to offer a pleasant surrounding and size that agreed with our needs and expectations. We enjoyed the living areas and more important, the caring of the staff at all levels. My wife developed cancer after the first two years and for the next almost seven years received exceptional care. I have worked with all levels of management and all of them have been most caring for our wellbeing. Not only did we receive exceptional care, but my brother and his wife entered the facility in Winston-Salem and have had a like experience there. I would and have without reservation recommend this facility to anyone for a place to spend their years after their working years were completed. The care and social surrounds and facilities and the staff at all levels are superb."

Neil Cameron

“When we first heard of Taylor Glen in 2013, we pulled up its website and were bowled over with the beauty of the property and of the slide showing a Bible with a finger pointing to Psalm 50:15 (“Call on me in the day of trouble, I will deliver thee and thou shall glorify me). This Scripture is the Biblical foundation that Taylor Glen is built on. In the seven years we have lived here, we have received tenderloving care by the staff, healthcare providers, housekeepers and food service workers. We are so happy that we came to Taylor Glen. This truly is our happy place.”

Dr. Luke and Mary Jarvis
