They keep it maintained very well and clean often. Staff is helpful and delightful. I love the food and making new friends. I have the freedom to come and go as I wish, but I still feel safe and secure. [name removed], the shuttle driver, takes me anywhere I need to go even to Providence in Novi. [name removed] in maintenance hung my TV the week I moved in. [name removed] at the front desk is very knowledgeable and helps me when I need her.

Feels Like Home

I started to look for a new home after my husband passed and I gave up driving. I was looking for a place close to stores, restaurants and my church. I checked several places in town and picked the BEST PLACE I checked out. I chose a One Bedroom apartment at Brookdale Brighton. I feel completely at home here and the rent is within my budget. The staff is friendly to everyone and so helpful. The meals are delicious. I could not have picked a better place to move to and have made many recommendations to my friends and other families at church.

A++

We couldn't be happier with our decision to have my mom move into Brookdale. It has truly been a blessing for our entire family. Since moving in, my mom has absolutely blossomed. She is more active and engaged than she has been in years and has made so many new friends. She loves being able to take the bus and exercise. The staff and caregivers are what truly make this place special. They are highly professional but also incredibly warm, patient, and compassionate. When my mom presses her call button someone responds very promptly. The value for the cost is outstanding especially considering the quality of the care, the meals and the variety of amenities and activities offered. It provides all the comfort and security we wanted for her without the large financial burden. I would recommend Brookdale to any family looking for a caring, active and affordable independent living community for their loved one. It is a five-star experience.

Smooth & Effortless

The staff at Brookdale Brighton couldn’t be any friendlier if they tried! I am amazed at how efficient and expedient they are at answering questions and fulfilling requests. The receptionists are quite knowledgeable and also make sure the residents are comfortable with their surroundings. The sales manager is excellent. He made sure I was happy with my apartment and that everything was in order. He never failed to answer any question or request, went above and beyond and always returned my call. The staff here is awesome!

Exceeded Expectations

My Father’s initial expectation was that an indepening facility would diminish his independence and he was proven wrong his first week. The reality is quite different because the atmosphere is energetic. There are always activities, events, entertainment and clubs that many residents are engaged in. The staff is exceptional and many already know him by name. During the transition they helped guide us through veteran benefits that we didn’t even know existed. This facility sdent livo far has been a fantastic choice and has truly exceed our expectations.

What's not to love about Brookdale Brighton

What I like most about the community is The Brighton senior center and bus transportation at Brookdale. Apt was nice size! The staff was awesome! Best 2 and a half months my mom had! She loved the dining room and her eating partners. I will be forever grateful to Brookdale.

it's a very nice community, we love the staff and it makes us so how happy that our loved one is enjoying living there.

We are very happy with Brookdale of Brighton. My father-in-law is thriving there. He's making friends and enjoying all that it has to offer which is a complete comfort to our family. He recently lost his spouse of 50+ years on [date removed] and as much as he misses her he's actually enjoying himself. I feel Brookdale is clean, the staff is friendly and very attentive to his needs. They personalize the community and as a family we are very happy with our decision to have chosen Brookdale of Brighton. Oh and he loves the food!!!

Very Well Done

I was invited to tour Brighton MI Brookdale through the Howell Senior Center. They even arranged transportation for me and I had a great tour of the building - I was able to see the model one bedroom and was highly impressed. It was a lot larger than I expected. The facility is very lively, bright and the staff are extremely friendly and professional. [name removed] in admissions has been there over 12 years. I look forward to coming back to future events I had a blast!

Camaraderie

I have lived at Brookdale for almost 3 years and have enjoyed every minute of it. My other friends that live here are a delight and I enjoy their camaraderie. There are always various things to do if you want to. My family says I’m a picky eater, but [name removed] in Dining does a great job at the menu chat meetings to accommodate my special requests. I’ve had the same housekeeper all these years, [name removed] , and she is a wonderful person.

New apartment for my Dad

It hasn’t quite been a month but my dad is so happy. He was so isolated before and he is enjoying exploring his new surroundings and meeting new people. He made wonderful new friends with his table mates from lunch and dinner and said his meals are delicious. The staff have been great about helping to engage him in activities. Every time I ask how he is, he says he is very happy in his new place! Everyone is so welcoming and we know he is safe and happy and it is so comforting!

Great place for mom

Brookdale has been an absolute god send for my mom. She went from having a lot of trouble living on her own to thriving. They have the privacy of your own apartment but the amenities of a hotel. She loves the food! Every day I talk to her and she talks about how good the food is. Perfect place for the people who don’t need total care but a little bit of help.

So far so good!

My dad moved in earlier last year, and the staff has been amazing! They do their best to keep community members engaged and speaking as a chef, I can say after having several meals with my dad here I can say the meals are quite good as well! It is also a plus that they have a large ratio of men.

Excellent care for my Dad

My Dad loved it at Brookdale but he now needs full time care at 98. The staff was very accommodating and we know he'll miss it terribly. Unfortunately after a bad fall we are forced to put him in a nursing home.

Review for Brookdale Brighton

I would recommend to others, my dad hated every minute of it but he would have felt the same way about any place but home. We picked them because they were cheaper and he had his own apartment with a door going out side which I was able to put up a little portable fence so he could let his 2 little dogs in and out!

Brookdale Brighton Excellent choice

Mom lived at Brookdale Brighton for eight years. While living there, she was always treated with respect, kindness and like a member of the family. The staff, from "top to bottom", was caring and fun to be around. Brookdale definitely was an excellent choice.

Safe place for a loved one

Staff is very friendly, but sometimes it takes more than one request to get a something fixed in the room or sometimes housekeeping does not stick to the days they are scheduled. I think this might be a staffing consistency issue. Overall, it's a safe well run place for her to live. However, it is getting out of her monetary range.
