Beautiful community and very attentive staff that goes above and beyond to make sure every residents needs are met. I have worked with Kelli on several placements and she has always treated each resident and their families with kindness and respect. Kelli has made sure every residents needs are met with an easy transition.

Brightwater is a beautiful community, with caring staff. It's beneficial that they have both assisted living and memory care - if a loved one's condition changes, it's an easier transition to move to that higher level of care. I also appreciate that Brightwater is civic-minded and actively volunteering in the community.

My mother resided at Brightwater from the end of May-mid August, 2017. She had taken a fall which left her completely incapacitated. Previously she had lived alone, licensed to drive till 2020 and was very vibrant. My mother at almost 90, needed a lot of care. Reluctantly we admitted her to Brightwater and found very quickly that we made the right decision! From the housekeepers, caregivers, front desk ladies, activities coordinators, kitchen help, professional services and the administration...all were exceptional. The staff at Brightwater care about the residents and their environment. This is evident in the personal and professional care given to the residents. Specifically my mother was treated with respect and dignity that made me comfortable leaving her in their care. I visited daily for those two and a half months. There was minimal and basically unotable complaint. The facility was always clean. The food was good and the variety was restaurant quality. The activities offered was great! My mother being an introvert, did not avail herself these amenities...she was grateful that staff and residents continually invited her. My mother stayed in a studio apartment. The floor plan was spacious, with plenty of storage and closet space. The bathroom was large and accommodated easily her wheelchair/walker, with plenty of extra space to spare. As my mother convalesced, she eventually required less care. Her tier care level was easily adjusted and her payment was lowered. I attribute her recovery to the staff and positive environment of Brightwater. We now all reside together in one home. My mother will not be completely independent again, but due to the time well spent at Brightwater, her platinum years will be with her family at home. For those families that are not able to bring their loved one home. Rest assured, they will be well cared for at Brightwater. We are not a family that has disposable income. My father worked hard his whole life to leave my mom with funds after he was gone. Brighwater is worth every penny. I hope this kind of place is available to me...I'm checking myself in and not waiting for my family to do it! I highly recommend Brightwater!

My siblings and I moved our mother into Brightwater Senior Living of Highland last October 2015. Our mother was extremely reluctant to move into an assisted living facility. She wanted to live in her own home, however, that wasn't possible anymore after a fall and her doctor told us she should not live alone anymore. We anticipated we would have a very difficult time with our mother adjusting to these new living arrangements. We were completely surprised that it was just the opposite. She never asked once to go back home. She really enjoyed it from the beginning!. Brightwater is a beautiful, extremely well maintained community, and it is ran by the most caring, friendly and engaged staff I have ever seen. I live in Highland, so I could be there every day and got to know the entire staff and witnessed the loving relationships that the staff has with the residents. They truly care about their residents. Finding the right living arrangements for aging parents is a stressful task. We all worry and want to make sure our parents are being well taken care of in a loving environment. We worry that when we are not with our parents, are they being treated with dignity and respect. I can tell you at Brightwater there is no question. They are in a safe and secure community, well cared for, and the staff is engaged with the residents as if they were family. They have many activities within Brightwater that residents can take advantage of and are much encouraged to, a movie theater, a beautiful dining room with a baby grand piano, that my mother loved to play and outings to local stores and activities. If you are in need of a senior community for an aging parent, I encourage you to take a tour of Brightwater. You won't be disappointed!
