My dad received amazing care while recovering after neck surgery. He was here for two months. Great physical therapy as well. The nursing staff as well as all supporting staff were amazing. Props to our favorite nurse Lisa Toney you did an amazing job always taking special care of my Pops. Dad had a lot of fun playing bingo and meeting other patients as well. Last but not least the entire facility smelled amazing.

I think this place has done a really great job at rehabilitating people. I had back surgery on my spine from one end to the other and since I’ve been here I’ve had no problems. I got stronger and rehabilitated pretty fast. I’ve had great help from the nurses and staff overall. They keep the place really clean. I just think it’s great. I’ve been to other places and this one is great. When the nurses come in they have a smile on their face and most have become a friend.

Everyone has been caring, understanding and listening to my problems. The food has been great and kitchen staff have accommodate me with a smile. Steven was informative and helpful. If I ever need rehab again I would come back. I made some great relationships with staff and other patients. I know it's not home but they made it feel like home because how friendly Everyone was. I really enjoyed activities and kept it fun. Rehab helped me build confidence, recovered me physically but has well as mentally. I'm going to miss everyone at Brighton

My mom had been hospitalized for a fall . We found out she had to have surgery for a hip replacement, with that being said , we had to find a rehabilitation program for my mom to go to. We searched and read reviews on so many places. I read the reviews for Brighton and we decided to have my mom go there. My mom has been here for almost two weeks and the people are extremely friendly and attentive to everyone. My mom enjoys going to play bingo and all the activities they have for them to do. If you need help with a family member I would say Brighton is the best place .
