Coral Springs is one of Broward County's most desirable communities — a family-centered city with excellent schools, safe neighborhoods, and a population that includes a large and growing number of older adults. When a parent or loved one in Coral Springs reaches the point of needing more care than can be provided at home, families often begin searching for assisted living near Coral Springs, FL. Colonial Gardens Residences in Lauderhill is approximately 20 minutes away via the Sawgrass Expressway — and it's among the most highly rated senior care communities in Broward County.
With a 4.8-star rating from 162 reviews, a 128-bed capacity, and 24/7 licensed nursing coverage, Colonial Gardens has earned the confidence of families from Coral Springs and across Broward County who want quality care at a fair price.
Finding the Right Assisted Living Near Coral Springs
Coral Springs residents have options when it comes to senior care — but not all assisted living communities are equal. Some are large, corporate-managed facilities that prioritize occupancy over care quality. Others advertise a low base rate and then layer on fees for medication management, laundry, and higher care levels until the monthly bill becomes unpredictable.
When searching for assisted living near Coral Springs, families should prioritize:
- 24/7 on-site licensed nursing — not just an on-call nurse who must travel to the facility
- Transparent, all-inclusive pricing with no hidden add-ons
- Genuine reviews from real residents and families — not self-reported satisfaction surveys
- A homelike, community-centered environment rather than an institutional feel
- Both assisted living and memory care options, so a loved one doesn't have to move again if needs increase
Colonial Gardens checks every one of these boxes — and our 162 Google reviews reflect the experience of families who have placed loved ones in our care.
What Colonial Gardens Offers Coral Springs Families
Colonial Gardens Residences is a full-service assisted living and memory care community — not a standalone assisted living facility that offers no pathway for residents whose cognitive needs evolve over time. Here's what Coral Springs families can expect:
Assisted Living
Our assisted living program supports seniors who need help with some daily activities while retaining meaningful independence. Services include:
- Personalized care plans developed with each resident and family, reviewed regularly
- Assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and mobility — tailored to each resident's actual needs
- Medication management by licensed nursing staff: scheduling, administration, and pharmacy coordination
- Three chef-prepared meals daily, with dietary accommodations for diabetes, heart health, and other conditions
- Housekeeping, personal laundry, and linen service included in the monthly rate
- Emergency call systems in every room and common area
- Transportation coordination for medical appointments and outings
- Full activity calendar: fitness, arts, music, games, gardening, and community events
Memory Care
For loved ones living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias, Colonial Gardens' dedicated memory care program provides:
- Secured environment with thoughtful design to reduce disorientation and support safe movement
- Staff trained specifically in dementia-informed care, de-escalation, and validation therapy
- Structured daily routines that create predictability and reduce anxiety
- Therapeutic programming: music therapy, reminiscence, sensory activities, and movement programs
- Family support, communication, and education throughout the care journey
Having both levels of care under one roof means that if your loved one transitions from assisted living to memory care, they stay in the same community — with the same staff, the same neighbors, and the same sense of home. That continuity matters enormously for residents and families alike.
