I absolutely love this place for my mom! The entire staff is kind, the activities are fantastic, great outings are scheduled, food is cooked by chefs, the servers are good people, the front desk staff are so lovely, cleanliness is impeccable, the grounds are beautifully kept, rent and finances are easily managed, and maintenance is quite diligent! In addition to all of this, the staff takes time to know all of the residents. For that, I am most grateful. The vibe of Brightview is that of an all-inclusive resort, yet the environment they've created makes it feel like home!

I visit my mother in independent living often. Brightview has a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. We couldn't be happier having our mother be part of the Brightview community.

They market themselves as a “memory care” facility, but based on our experience, I would not consider them one.<br>My grandfather, who struggled with dementia and Alzheimer’s, had a very difficult transition out of the hospital — something that is already challenging for anyone, let alone someone facing such devastating diseases.<br><br>The only reason I am giving two stars is because of a few staff members who genuinely made a difference: Rebecca, who always offered a positive outlook; Celis, who clearly cared deeply for her work; and Angela, who brought great energy and compassion.<br><br>However, as a facility, they are not equipped to handle the reality of advanced memory care needs. When my grandfather’s behaviors became more challenging (he has only been there 3 weeks) — which is extremely common with dementia and Alzheimer’s — the response was not to provide support, but instead to claim he was “not a good fit.”<br>Language difficulties, combativeness, and complex medical challenges are all part of these diseases. A true memory care facility should know that — and be prepared for it.<br><br>In my opinion, this is not true memory care. It is simply assisted living with a “memory care” label for marketing purposes.<br>Families with loved ones facing advanced stages of dementia should look elsewhere — your time, money, and more importantly, your trust deserve better.
