Brightwater has been very good to us. My mom's room is in memory care and it's beautiful. The staff is very caring and very attentive to all her needs and problems. The food could be a little better, but their dining area is attractive and the atmosphere of the place is very nice and very friendly. They have different things to do every day. They make a lot of decorations for the different types of the year, they go on bus rides, they go get ice cream, or go over to the assisted living area for concerts. They don't let them just sit in their room. They make sure that they're involved in doing things, and they keep us all updated with newsletters and personal reports.

My Mom was here for "rehab". They let her lay in urine and feces - told her to "just go in your diaper" and hours later they might clean it. The only "rehab" is during PT or OT sessions. They are not encouraged or assisted to wash up or use the toilet on their own. Hiding behind COVID, they required me to sign in and notify 1 hr prior to visits. This is so they can quickly dress her and make her look "cared for". Worse yet? They "resolved" a bed sore that clearly was in very bad shape. I took her to Wound Care the day after her discharge and 6 weeks later it is still not healed because of the neglect at Brightwater. A handful of the staff is excellent, but unfortunately the rest are mediocre, at best, spending lots of time on their cellphones while entering data at the nurse's station or assisting a patient with meals. Most of the time her room and bathroom was filthy and I had to clean it up. I even found her wearing someone else's clothing on one visit even though her clothing was clearly marked. The food is good, but this is merely a place to send people to rot away until they die.
