Bellbrook Senior Community has been a part of the Rochester/ Rochester Hills neighborho­od for 32 years. You may remember us as “Mercy Bellbrook” or more recently “Sanctuary at Bellbrook,” but through the name changes and rebrands, our vision, mission and compassion­ate care for seniors has not waivered. For those of you that recognize the name but ask yourself what we do, we can help define that for you! Bellbrook provides Independen­t Living, Assisted Living,

Memory Care and Short-term Rehabilita­tion services.

In 2020, starting with Coffee with A Cop on March 11, we will be hosting events to invite all of you reading this to visit Bellbrook and see firsthand how it really is where neighborho­od becomes family. On April 15th at 2:00pm, members of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra will be performing in our Great Room. May 7th vendors will set up to give you a place to shop for Mother’s Day, while enjoying delicious snacks provided by our very own Dining Services Team!

Coffee with a Cop is our first neighborho­od event, and we are so excited to invite Sheriff Michael Bouchard and Chief Steven Schettenhe­lm, along with their teams from the Oakland County Sherriff’s Office and the Rochester Police Department to have coffee and donuts. Bellbrook residents will be attendance, but we will also welcome the local community in for this special visit. Being a senior living community, we often work with local emergency response teams, as they are great resources to ensure that we have the best emergency preparedne­ss plans in place. Of course, they are always quick to respond and support in the event that we have an emergent situation arise at the community. The partnershi­p and reliabilit­y that the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office and the Rochester Police Department provide for Bellbrook Senior Community make our colleagues, residents and families confident that Bellbrook is a safe and secure place to live!

When we called the offices to talk about the idea of “Coffee with a Cop,” they both gave us an immediate and resounding “yes.” With the busy schedules that they keep, we cannot express our gratitude for their commitment to making sure they are accessible to local businesses and of course, local residents, to nurture those relationsh­ips. Bellbrook follows guiding behaviors that we use in our daily work, and we have found a direct relationsh­ip with both of these police forces and how the align with how we operate. For example, “Justice: We foster right relationsh­ips to promote the common good, including sustainabi­lity of Earth” and “Integrity: We are faithful to who we say we are.” Another direct correlatio­n that helps us relate so well is our patient center care, focus.

While Bellbrook provides a homelike environmen­t focused on the body, mind and spirit of each individual, the services provided by our local sheriff’s office and police department are also person-centered. We all recognize the importance of making people the reason behind our actions and decisions, and we will continue to provide opportunit­ies for Oakland County residents to live life to the fullest, while feeling protected by honest and dedicated leaders. We look forward to welcoming you to Bellbrook on March 11th to meet these inspiratio­nal teams that work so hard to protect and serve every day!
