The facility felt warm and welcoming from the moment I arrived. The assisted living residents were actively engaged in a group dance activity to the song “YMCA,” and it was encouraging to see staff members participating alongside the residents. The atmosphere felt upbeat and interactive, and many of the residents appeared genuinely happy and engaged, with several dancing and smiling throughout the activity. [name removed] and her team were friendly, attentive, and informative during the tour. I appreciated the tim

I met with [name removed]. She was wonderful and answered all of my questions. She was very caring and compassionate. The dining room and sitting room áreas were very nice. The only issue my family had was that Brighton is not Medicaid approved.

Staff wasn't really with it at check in. We had to bring her two days in a row and still they didn't have the right paperwork. [name removed] other son took her to the movies and didn't tell anyone that he was doing that. When they left there wasn't anyone at the front desk. It took them a few hours to realize that [name removed]was missing but they didn't a good job getting the police involved

Overall would recommend

Staff seems friendly and kind. The facility is clean and homey. There are some activities outside of the memory care unit that I think some but not all the people from memory care would like, but they are not taken there.
