Brighton Gardens of Stamford

Based on the experience they are understaffed. A few of the employees lack empathy--the brunette lady at the front desk is usually cranky and unfriendly. My family member was often left unattended due to understaffing.

A Place For Mom found The Place For Mom!

We looked into Brighton Gardens and when my family took the tour with mom we could tell right away from mom's reaction it's the place where she belonged. It was clean, pleasant atmosphere and most important, affordable.

A good place to go when you need help

My friend was at Brighton Gardens. She was ambulatory and did not need any skilled care except for her meals and meds. At first she seemed to enjoy the various activities but as her dementia got worse she retreated into her room. The staff was very kind and attentive, tried very hard to get her to rejoin the groups to no avail. Brighton Gardens was exceptional in its décor, cleanliness, cheerfulness of the staff. I would not hesitate to recommend it to someone who need assisted living.

Friendly and caring but understaffed.

My loved one visited every day and we had a private aide. I think they were understaffed and did not have a great plan to work around that. The care was adequate. They took a while to get into a flow with my loved one. We had to stay on top of everything.

Exceptional Care and Comfort

My family and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Brighton Gardens of Stamford. The staff go above and beyond to create a warm and nurturing environment for all residents. They are not just caregivers; they are like extended family members, treating each resident with the utmost respect and kindness. The facilities are immaculate and designed with the comfort and well-being of the residents in mind. From cozy common areas to beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces, every detail has been carefully considered to promote a sense of peace and relaxation. One of the things that impressed us the most was the personalized care plans tailored to meet the unique needs of each resident. They take the time to get to know each individual and ensure that they receive the appropriate level of care and attention. It's not just a place where residents receive care; it's a place where they thrive. My family is very thankful for Brighton Gardens of Stamford.

Happy with Sunrise and their staff

Staff is super friendly and always treat the residents with kindness and respect even when they are difficult at times or agitated. I'm always amazed at how calm and kind the staff remains I would and already have recommended them to my friends and family.

Highly recommend for memory care

When looking at places initially, they were the only ones out of many who didn't sound like they were selling used cars or regular apartment . They actually understood how traumatic the experience is and talked to me like a human being not once mentioning "monthly specials, and act now tactics". Brighton Gardens is full of friendly staff that takes maintaining our parents dignity very seriously.

Brighton Gardens of Stamford review

There is still that transition period with our loved ones but they seem to be enjoying the community as well as the different activities they offer. The meals and dining service are fantastic they are very good. This community was most ideal for our family and it is in a very convenient location. Based on our experience we would recommend Brighton Gardens to other families .

Great Community

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The overall environment has been good. The management team has been wonderful to work with and it has been easy for the family to reach them. The staff communication with the family and our loved one has been good.. There are three meals a day served to the residents. The staff try to accommodate the residents requests for coffee and snacks when possible. There is an activities calendar available for the residents to review to see what activities are available to participate in. It would nice to have automatic monthly payment options.

Nobody else's loved one should have to go through what our loved one went through

Our experience was terrible, the director was a great guy as well as the aids. But we had a problem with the two head nurses. They dropped the ball with our loved ones care, She was severely dehydrated and had a severe UTI, so she was taken to the hospital. We then found how she got C diff at this community. The nurses did not make the staff and other aids aware that our loved one had C diff, we were the ones that had to make them aware since it is very contagious. We felt our loved one was neglected by the two nurses. One of the head nurses was not friendly towards us at all. Our loved ones bathroom was disgusting. We also were the ones that ad to tell them to call an ambulance to come get our loved one on two separate occasions not the nurses, All of the staff members were wonderful except for the two head nurses. the aids did take really good care of our mother as well as the people at the front desk. The director spent a good amount of time with our mother, and he really did care for her.

A very difficult decision but made easier by the staff

If we could give the staff a 10 our of 10 stars we would, they are great. The grounds at this community are absolutely beautiful, the entire place is covered in flowers all around the rooms. The rooms provided for the residents are awesome, they are very spacious and very cozy. Our loved one didn't always participate in the activities but they had bingo, care games, a bus service that would take them up to the casino. They have an expensive library, and an audio system in there in case you have trouble reading. For those residents that are of Italian denomination, there is a catholic school across the street that arranged an Italian festival with a huge feast. Our loved one is a pretty picky eater, and she absolutely loves the food, she is very happy with it.

A good experience at a difficult time.....

In mid summer my mother became extremely ill in her hometown of TR NJ and after a lengthy hospitalization and rehab we were forced to make the difficult decision to relocate her up to CT near us. My mother had no input in the selection due to her illness and because we told the rehab facility we were not interested in leaving her in NJ they decided to discharge her with little notice to our family. [Name removed] was extremely accommodating and met my sister and I on a Sunday. He arranged for someone from Sunrise to observe and document her condition at the NJ rehab and jumped hoops to help us move her quickly. Yes, there are a few unfavorable reviews we saw on the web but we checked the DPH licensing web and checked on things like service or health violations as part of our decision to move mom to BG. They bent a rule and let us move her on a holiday weekend since we had to get her in sooner when the NJ facility gave us two days notice of a discharge date of Friday before labor day. As my mother has improved, she has come to consider this her home with new friends. The staff have been kind and considerate of her recovery and care. They give her choices in her wardrobe selection and activities since she is wheelchair bound at this point. She loves her meals and feels happy, much happier as time passes, [name removed], the ED has answered each and every question that we come up with, is very responsive and the receptionists are so helpful. We decided at the 11th hour of closing up her house to bring up her kitty after the first month who is also elderly and the staff has been wonderful with [name removed]. I hope in considering choosing BG you will visit and check all sources, talk to staff and tour the facility. You will see for yourself that many factors go into a big decision with what is best for your parent or family member. We have found all the staff to be courteous and considerate and right down to the Director of Facilities, who responds quickly to complaints if any. The fact that Mom is close to myself, my two other siblings and we can see she is happy is a bonus. That and the friends I have made with other resident's family members. For our family it is a win win all the way around. And, then....let me tell you all about [name removed]........
