Discover Brookmeadow Assisted Living’s In-House Fitness Specialist
Brookmeadow at Cobb Corner is one of few senior living communities with our own in-house Fitness Specialist, Damian Beckford. This full-time team member works with residents, both one-on-one and in group settings, to help them stay as active and independent as possible so they can enjoy all our community has to offer. Included in their monthly cost, Assisted Living and Compass Memory Support residents have access to:
- Group fitness classes 5 days a week designed for all fitness levels and abilities, including Sit & Fit, Strength & Balance, and Cardio Aerobic classes
- One-on-one sessions to help residents work toward their individual fitness goals, including improving strength, flexibility and endurance
- Specialized exercise groups for individuals with chronic conditions, including a “Better Breathers Club” for those managing COPD
- Synergy with medical goals: Our Fitness Specialist can suggest exercises that complement physical therapy and promote recovery (great for residents following a hospital or rehab stay)
