Every amenity to make life comfortable

It’s obvious Brighton Gardens strives to make residents feel “at home”. Every amenity has been thought of, from a varied food menu to providing stamps and a mailbox on the premises. I like the fact that there are doctors of many specialties that make “house calls”, besides the health aids that are always available. I took a tour with, and for, my mother and one of her concerns are social functions. Some social events are thoughtful and fun and some did not appeal to her, but there is an event to participate in everyday. The inside atmosphere is comfortable and the outside walking path is beautifully landscaped for the season.

Friendly and caring

Staff is great in keeping residents engaged, helping them and keeping primary contacts informed. Just need a better system for keeping residents engaged with distant family members that cannot visit. We do appreciate what they do.

Our experience at Brighton Gardens Elison

Communication can be lacking with the nursing staff. They need more variety on the food menu. They also need more interactive activities.

Food

I’ve lived here for about 8 years. You can’t expect to have any place make food like mom made it, but here, what they give you is very worthwhile. First time in my life I am eating good healthy food. When we have our resident council meetings, they do the very best they can to accommodate us and our suggestions and concerns.

I’ve been a resident here for about a year and an half. Overall things are okay. There are minor issues that can be corrected with conversation. I enjoy the activities, especially the men’s club. I look forward to positive changes in 2025.

Not living alone anymore and secure

Mom seems to like it and seems to be thriving there. I think all health care is too expensive especially for the elderly. My mom doesn't generally participate in activities. Mom seems to enjoy it, she has gained weight. Those that I have met and spoke to are very helpful. Mom is not complaining, which she would if there was a problem. Everyone, the few times I have been there, has always been very friendly. The facility is very clean. I am very happy. I feel secure that mom is safe. I wish I could visit but I live out of state.

Medical very good aids not customer oriented

Medical care is excellent medication management almost excellent. AIDS very helpful with people that require considerable care. Cannot complain about people that will clean you if you poop yourself and you have physical problems even if you do not. However in some places if you are wheelchair bound they will roll you down to meals and back to your room. They do some but a lot people do them selves. Some people they really need it they do. The executive is excellent and care manager is hot. However place gets a four because the attitude of some aids are is not customer oriented. It might because they are overworked but you would think they want to make the customer feel welcome. They would make the you think they want you to stay not make you feel maybe like you should go to a different company.Its a business you want to make you happy not miserable. You think the aids would help each other out it’s not my job it’s hers even if you’re talking on the phone for half an hour.

A breath of relief

Sunrise of Edison sincerely cared about the services I seeked for my love one. I visited other facilities and spoke verbally to so many I've lost count. Sunrise of Edison spoke the language of care they could provide for my mother and followed up with me as well. My mother needed more help than I could provide, mentally and medically. Letting go for the betterment of my mother to become a resident of the community was the answer to my prayers. She gets to interact with people in the community and is doing very well. The facility is clean, safe and treats my mother with dignity and respect. Now when my mom looks up to me with those eyes that melt your soul, my heart is comforted knowing she's in good hands. Thank you for your service and caring professionals at Sunrise of Edison for providing the exceptional care.

Overall recommend

I'd say everything was pretty much a "4", but they are definitely understaffed. I think that's a widespread problem in assisted living facilities though. Other families should know there are a few different levels of care available at different fees.

All Around Terrible Place

This company does not care about the residents or their workers. People have worked their for years and they do not listen to their complaints of being overworked due to shortages especially in the healthcare department. Due to being over worked makes the care bad because we are so tired and angry all the time. Many of us are not happy working there and how the residents are second class citizens at the community. Resident complaints are always kept under the rug and those that can't defend themselves are shushed away.

the comforts of home in an assisted setting

All 5's from us. We were very happy with our experience at Brighton Gardens of Edison. I have no complaints. If we need to use them again, would not hesitate and hope there'd be availability. Based on the experience we have had we would recommend this community to other families and infact we did when we saw people getting a tour.

I and my entire family were completely satisfied with all aspects of care and attention provided by your facility to my 99 year old mother. We were particularly impressed with the quality of food preparation.

In the 70-75th percentile

My parents lived on the Assisted side a little over a year. Dad moved to Skilled Nursing after mom passed, when he needed more care. I'd rank Brighton 70-75th%. The AL side is aesthetically nicer (especially the common areas); the care was a mixed bag. Also, there are few truly handicapped rooms/bathrooms on the Assisted side. These things (unfortunately) contributed to dad's many falls. The care is better in Skilled Nursing (as one would expect), but this side is not kept as clean, and some things are in disrepair. That said, no place is perfect, and overall my sister and I are satisfied with this community. Most of the employees seem dedicated and caring, and they have become a strong support network for us. Recognizing VERY few communities will rank 80-95% in satisfaction, I WOULD recommend Brighton Gardens of Edison to others.

Touring Community

In November I had came across Brighton Garden’s of Edison while driving. I was in the search for a community for my husband. I was very pleased that on a Saturday I was able to walk in and was greeted nicely by the concierge and introduced to the sales team member, who was able to attend to me immediately. I immediately noticed the large group of residents who were engaged in whatever the activity was going on and that was very good to see. It shows me that the residents enjoy what the community has to offer. I really liked the overall layout of the community and really liked that it’s only 2 floors. I found that everyone was very helpful and very attentive towards the residents and visitors. I absolutely would recommend this community even though I made a decision to move further up north closer to my children. Brighton Gardens of Edison gets 5 stars from me.
