Mom calls it her 'home'

Mom says the food is usually very good, the care team is very good and caring, and the nursing team is great. There are plenty of activities for residents including onsite church services. Weekly Friday outing to go shopping is very popular, as is Thursday lunch outing.

Brighton Gardens of Wheaton

These are my take on it with some of his comments. Overall, I think it's lovely, right? Unfortunately, he just wants to be in his own home. So he's not the happiest, but yeah, the facilities are nice. Most of the people are very nice. There's always a few that he doesn't get along with. anything. And I don't think he'll want his on it. I think the staff is all very friendly and stuff. But there's always some staff members that are less friendly than others. And the food for the most part is awesome. It just, i've heard that at certain times depending on who's cooking, the food's not always the best. But my cousin is a bit picky.

Peace of Mind. Knowing that Mom is being cared for by warm, friendly, knowledgeable staff gives us that.

Caring, friendly staff. They want the best for the residents. I would recommend to others.

Tenured staff

In interviews with prospective care facilities, I asked employees how long they had worked in their current facility. Length of employment at a singular facility is usually very positive sign of employee satisfaction.

Need to know

Not enough staff to give to each resident. I felt that since my husband was only there for a month he was ignored since he would be leaving soon. Food service was too slow. Portions were good but every item was placed in separate bowls.

Amazing staff

The entire staff was always so helpful and kept me in the loop about my mom’s well-being. I visited her 2-3 times a week, and everyone knew each other. It was such a great atmosphere! They had a few different cooks throughout the year. But the one they have now is the best, according to my mom who passed away in January.

Compassionate staff

Brighton Gardens has an excellent staff throughout the facility. A good number of the staff have been there many years which speaks volumes. They give wonderful compassionate care. It is clean and well maintained.

I only dealt with the memory care staff, but they were very experienced and caring. Most of the staff have worked at Brighton Gardens for years, which says a lot about the place.

Bloom at Brighton Gardens.

I would tell others that the facility is very pleasant. Overall, the staff very helpful and caring. The apartment sizes and accommodations in assisted living are good. I would recommend Brighton Gardens of Wheaton to others looking.

tour review

Our family had an in person tour and we thought the tour experience was great, we really liked what we saw but the reason we had to go against it was just the location and the price - it was just to far away and to expensive.

good place for loved ones

The person who gave us the tour greeted us at the door, did a great job showing us around and convinced our loved one to move in. Our loved one is doing good for himself and he says he is at home here. He is really enjoying the meals and dining service and all the activities. We really like how the staff has meetings with the residents every week to sit down and listen to all their feedback - it makes them feel like they have a voice. Based on our experience we would recommend Brighton Gardens to other families.

Tour of Brighton Gardens

I toured Brighton Gardens and I didn't like that when we took the tour they said they could get my wife in for respite care. We needed respite care for a couple weeks to a month, we were looking for a place that would allow her to recuperate after being in the hospital. Everything happened very fast, but a day or two later they called back and said she couldn't stay for respite. That ruined all of their credibility in my book.

Mom loves it

The staff is very accommodating and it's a smaller community and I feel my loved one gets better attention. Communication is good and I receive updates 2-3 a week. I would recommend this community to others
