We only toured the assisted living at Brighton Gardens of Greensboro. It was a very nice facility. The person we interacted with, her name was Judy, and she did a great job. It was nice and clean. The lady that we interacted with was very knowledgeable and very friendly, and the residents that we saw almost like they were happy there, so I have nothing negative to say about this community. The room was clean, but it was on the small side. It would have been a tight fit to have a bed and a dresser in there. They have a bus that takes the residents to shopping and medical appointments based on the day of the week. They have housekeeping, they do all of your laundries, and they offer three meals a day.

I enjoyed the layout of Brighton Gardens of Greensboro. It seemed to be homey, and when you arrived at the suites, they appeared to be almost like a hotel-style room or apartment. I thought it looked clean, and it's a nice facility. The staff was very pleasant. Everyone seemed nice, particularly the two people we interacted with. We had a guided tour, and they really just seem to care. They actually even called to follow up with me afterwards, so I thought that was really nice. They have nursing staff available, in the event your family member needs them, and a resident guide, who helps them throughout the day. They have a lot of interactive things like game night and themed dinners every week.

I did an in-person tour of Brighton Gardens of Greensboro. The tour guide was very nice and showed me every part of their memory care. I saw all the residents that were there. They have a dog that walks around and checks on everybody and they have activities. The place was big and clean, and the receptionist was very nice. The healthcare people were all very nice, too. I was impressed.

My brother will be moving into Brighton Gardens of Greensboro, but it was put on hold because of the pandemic. They assured me that the room is his, and they will let me know when we can get him in. The tour was absolutely awesome. They took me to the memory care where he's going to be, the lady that I spoke with was absolutely awesome, and they took me on a tour of the whole place. I was able to go inside a room, I interacted with the residents, and I saw where they ate lunch. They had two different places for them to eat, and there's a place where they can hangout and watch TV if they want to. One thing that I really liked was they have a therapy dog. My brother adores animals, and that will help him tremendously. The therapy dog actually lives there. Her bed is out in the open where they can play with her, her toys are everywhere, she has a little room where she sleeps and where her food is, and where she can go if she needs to get away from everybody. It just seemed like everything was where it was supposed to be, and how it was supposed to be, and that's how I felt. I felt really good when I was there. They have an open courtyard where they can go, so they don't have to be confined, but they can't get out. All the doors inside open up to that little courtyard. There's somebody there if he needs something, and that's what I liked about it. They also have a shadow box on the outside of each room. The family can put stuff in there to tell people what that person was all about. It basically tells a story about that person.

Brighton Gardens of Greensboro was top of the line. It was one of the best nursing homes that I've ever visited. The staff was very accommodating and really nice. The studio apartment had a bathroom and a bedroom, but no kitchenette. They have activities and there was a group getting ready to go on a bus trip somewhere.

Brighton Gardens of Greensboro was good, clean, and had a lot of attention from the staff. The staff seemed nice and on top of things. The place and the rooms were small, and there were less people. There was a buffet setup in the dining area. They have somebody in the common area playing the piano and singing. Most of the residents were a little bit further along.

My dad is in Brighton Gardens of Greensboro. It is a very good facility. The staff is very nice and provides good services. There is a doctor who visits and physical therapy. The place is very nice and looks like a hotel. There are lots of activities, but he is not interested in the activities. The dining area and the food seem to be very nice.

The rooms at Brighton Gardens of Greensboro were very nice, very cheery, and very bright, and the whole place was very nice. I saw an activity in action while I was there. They were doing some music and a visit from a therapy dog, and the residents seemed to be very engaged. The staff people were very nice; everybody was very friendly and very nice. They seemed to know the residents, addressed them by name, and talked to them.

I visited Brighton Gardens. The staff was very helpful. It was a little bit out of the area that I was looking at and cost too much. The atmosphere was wonderful, very nice, and friendly. The place was pretty and kept spotless. They had line dancing, games, Wii and went out all the time. The food was very good and included a lot of choices. They had a knowledgeable staff.

My father has moved into Brighton Gardens, a very clean, friendly place. It seems like staff knows everybody by their first names, which is good. They have activity schedules that vary all the time. I have looked in the dining room, and everybody enjoys their meals. They clean up your apartment once a week, have a snack room with coffee, juice, apples, oranges, cookies, and a fun room, so that's really nice.

Brighton Gardens of Greensboro was a bit more on a residential area. There were homes closer to that location. It was a little further away from a hospital. I would probably say 20 to 30 minutes to a hospital. We met a couple of residents, and they were very nice. They seemed happy, and they had positive things to say. They were very nice, and I would recommend them.

My mother-in-law is at Brighton Gardens. We love it, she loves it, and it is a great place to be. The food is good. The staff is excellent. It has just been a really good place for my mother-in-law. She has been there for six weeks now. The staff is very attentive. My mother-in-law gets her meds given by them, and they're very attentive on that. The food is good. The activities are great. They do a really good job of checking on their folks. They would check on them if they come by during breakfast time, lunch time, and dinner time. If they see you in your room, they would announce that lunch is coming. They have a wonderful activity director. He really keeps the residents busy. They have onsite and offsite activities, which some of them I really like. They have movies, they bake, and they have a piano and entertainers almost everyday. They crochet, they do puzzles, and they have an exercise class. There are lot of things for different people's interests. They are very encouraging to participate in activities, but they're not pushy; they just encourage you to participate if you're interested. I have had 10 years of experience with my parents being in a nursing home and assisted living, and Brighton Gardens is definitely the best facility that I have ever dealt with. The rooms are very nice. My mother-in-law is in a studio that has an inset for a bed. She has a nice little living area and a mini kitchen with a sink and a refrigerator. She has a wonderful bathroom, a nice walk-in closet, and a very nice linen closet/storage space. It has met all our expectations. It is very homey.

I choose Brighton Garden for my mom because it is close by, and they have a nice room available. It has lots of bright lights and large enough. The people there are all very nice. They seem to be very caring, and for the most part seem to be really on the ball. It is a nice place. It smells good. It looks good. It is clean. It is a very pleasant building.

Brighton Gardens of Greensboro was very pretty, very friendly, and very homey. The rooms were very nice and clean and had plenty of space. The food was very good. We were actually there for some of their entertainment. It was good, and we thought it was just fun. They had music for the people who live there. There were also small areas where they came in and baked cookies and things like that. We liked it a lot and I guess the thing that stood out was the willingness of the staff to help and work with our needs.

There are a number of reasons we chose Brighton Gardens of Greensboro, but it boils down to the services they offered and quality of the facility. The staff seemed very well trained. They act very professionally and courteous. We have not had any problems. I have eaten there, and it is good. There are a lot of activities. There is always something going on since they have a full calendar. I would recommend this facility to others.

I was able to take a look at Brighton Gardens of Greensboro and I found the facility wonderful. It's a larger facility and I think my mom would be confused if she moves in. But if I had to go myself to any facility, send me to Brighton Gardens. The staff was very welcoming. They told me to call if my decision changes and they were very pleasant.

We chose Brighton Gardens for my friend because of the location and basically the health care that is available in this area. They actually offer an inclusive care program, and I found out that there are a number of states that do not provide that type of care. We found that Brighton Gardens has everything from memory care, assisted, and independent living. The staff is very engaged. They have a number of activities that the residents can participate in. There is transportation, food service and we have just been really pleased with everything so far. The rooms are very roomy and spacious. They have a couple of different floor plans. It just depends on each individual resident's needs. The food is wonderful. He is retired from the US Navy and he's an excellent chef. They have a snack room available to residents throughout the day, whether it is for popcorn, almond and what-have-you. There are plenty of snacks for them. Even the memory care residents are able to come into the community area and mingle and have some socialization as well. So we have really been pleased. What I have observed in terms of activities is that they have a Friday night movie and social hour. They have bingo and bridge. They have a farmer's market where residents could come and shop. The place is a very comfortable environment. For us, half the battle was just making sure that (1) they have different levels of care; and (2) they work well with the medical community, which is good. That was one of our deciding factors -- the overall health care quality in the community. I would definitely recommend this community to others.

Brighton Gardens was very good. The staff was very nice and very competent. They had very nice rooms. They basically had the same kinds of activities as other places. There were mentally stimulating activities for the residents.

We chose Brighton Gardens because of the atmosphere when we walked in. I was just a lovely and homey place. The staff seemed very caring and nice. When we went on a tour, they were having activities with some of the seniors, and they were singing some of the hymns that my father and mother loved. My mother's experience there was fine. My mother said the food was delicious. We had some of our friends live there, and they said the food was very good. However, back in January, they put her to bed and she heard a commotion. She got up in the middle of the night to go out on the hall, and she fell and broke her hip. After that, she had to go to a rehab facility, and we paid an extra month to hold her room, but she was not able to go back there. However, the girl who was in charge in the assisted living did go visit my mom once a week while she was in the rehab facility.

The lady who gave us the tour at Brighton Gardens was an excellent person to deal with. She was nice and we walk around to check the place out.

We placed my mom in Brighton Gardens. She was there initially for respite care. She liked it very much, so I decided to investigate what it would take for her to be there and it worked out. She is able to just stay on from respite care. Actually we're just very impressed with the staff and everything they do there. They're extremely professional. They treat their residents with tremendous respect and they're very nice regardless of what their residents' physical or mental condition is. They're efficient. I really have nothing negative to say about the staff and the facility itself. It's a nice place. It doesn't have any smell to it. It smells like a hotel instead of nursing home. The rooms are nice size. They're all clean, pretty and nice. You can furnish the room yourself, so you can put in there whatever you want. They're sufficient and efficient for what the person needs. They have a wonderful dining room and it is just like a restaurant. Residents can order what they want and make choices. For activities, they have things that residents can do that are physical activities for them. They also have what they call brain games, puzzles, etc. They can also play bridge, bingo, arts and crafts. They also have a lot of people that come in for entertainment.

Brighton Gardens does not look like much from the outside but once you figure out what it is all about, then it is not that bad of a facility except for a thing here or there which could be fixed. The management and staff thinks of everything when a potential family of a guest member or guest including background checks and things of that nature. When I got inside the building I approached the lady at the desk and asked if I could have a brochure and possibly a tour. She said there was no one to show me around for a tour but I could call back and set up a time for one. I viewed the material she gave me and noticed that a lot of the furniture looked like it may have bought in bulk. There was no " pizazz" to the place. Besides that, everything (from what I could see looked pretty good).
