A Friendly Community

Overall experience was very positive. Most notable is the friendliness of both staff and residents. It truly feels like a close-knit community. My dad was only there for two weeks and he enjoyed getting to know everyone. Dad had a one bedroom apartment that was a nice size for one person or even a couple. The full kitchen was a nice feature but hardly used. Washer and Dryer in the unit is a definite bonus. And the ability to pay an additional fee if more personal care is needed is a plus. Although we never got to t

Peace of Mind

I was overwhelmed and needed some direction. I was given names of places that I could look at. They completely understood the assignment. I would gladly recommend your services to others.

The Gables of Brighton

My Mom hasn't been there since last November. She then went to the hospital and is now in skilled nursing. Scored lower on admin because corporate office doubled rent out of bank account. Multiple calls, they wouldn't communicate in writing (email). Ended up contacting bank to dispute charge. Gables is independent only. [company removed] has way too many clients there to assist properly. Had issues with [name removed] to get responses. We wouldn't trust for care beyond meds. Most of her employees were nice and tri

Aides are friendly and helpful. There's no communication there amongst higher ups. Rent isn't worth what is included. Without proper notice rent increased almost [price removed] for services whether you use them or not. Not worth it

Food could be more accommodating to residents needs.

The staff is helpful but the food does accommodate a resident who needs low salt diet due to heart failure. Apartment is single bedroom and it's beautiful with plenty of room.

My experience

The staff was exceptional with the Director being useless. They changed the menu eliminating breakfast which was now continental and just carbs plus paper and plastic utensils. There was no dinner Sunday nights and they frequently ran out of specialty entrees. The apartments were in fair condition. Kitchen cupboards and vanity were in poor condition with missing hardware and dents and scratches. They took [amount removed] out of my checking account and wouldn't give it back. They said I could use it for future rent
