Brighton Gardens of Middletown

After visiting several assisted living facilities, Sunrise Brighton Gardens stood out from the rest. We initially met with Eileen who provided an excellent overview of the facility. She spent a considerable amount of time walking us through the building to view different resident rooms and patiently took us to the garden area, the dining area, library, nursing office, etc. Along the way, she answered MANY questions which displayed her experience and compassion when a family is faced with aging parents that need help. More importantly, Eileen demonstrates a great deal of pride in her role and truly does care about the residents. On several occasions she stopped purposely to make sure "everything was going smoothly" and without us asking, would send us an update. When we visit, we are always greeted with a wonderfully warm welcome! Joan is another outstanding team member, and it is a pleasure to see her every time we visit. She consistently smiles and offers a friendly welcome to anyone that comes through the front doors. She is ALWAYS willing to respond to any question and ALWAYS provides help, truly an exceptionally kind person. Most impressive, Joan has a remarkable talent for remembering everyone which makes it a very comfortable and warm environment! Lastly, the Nursing and Physical Therapy staff are very professional and approachable. They always leave themselves available to answer questions and are very responsive. The teams also provide an exceptional level of care and support to the residents as well as the family members.

My mom is a new resident at Brighton Gardens, and the transition has been very positive, for the both of us. Brighton Gardens is bright, clean and cheerful, but most especially, it is warm and welcoming. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and they are always engaged and attentive to the residents. My mom constantly tells me how kind and friendly everyone is to her, and she feels very welcomed. Joan and sweet Lilah at the front desk were the first friendly faces we met, and Joan continues to be a daily source of cheerfulness and assistance. Denise and Eileen welcomed us on our initial visit and tour, and Eileen has continued to help us through our decision-making process and move-in process. She is always checking-in during this transition, making sure my mom is doing well and getting comfortably settled-in. We appreciate Eileen’s support, enthusiasm and encouragement, which has continued since our first visit and tour. We are also appreciative to the initial staff members we have met and interacted with during these first couple of weeks, all of whom have helped welcome my mom into the Brighton Gardens community…my mom’s case manager Randilynn who is always there for uplifting support, Krystal, Felicia, nurse Janine, and Phil. They have all helped make my mom’s transition easy and, most importantly, happy. Thank you to Denise and her wonderful staff.

My Dad came to Brighton in Middletown for a short stay. The staff was so kind and accommodating and made him feel so welcomed. I am thankful to Eileen , Janine and Krystal for making his stay a pleasurable experience and working with our family to provide the best care for my dad - Thank you to all!

I have been at Brighton Gardens as a resident for 6 years. I enjoy that everyone does their best to keep us happy. I enjoy playing poker and bingo with the residents as well as daily exercise and the games. We go on many trips and outings and my favorites are shopping and going to the theatre as well as the casino and the track. Joanie at the front desk will help you with anything you need. The caregivers do a great job and Danni with activities keeps us involved and goes out of her way to provide fun activities to keep us active. The menu has a lot of options to appeal to a wide group of us with different tastes. Worship services are available and overall I am very happy here.
