My BFFs Dad was NOT easy to work with. The staff made it seem like he's a peach! Kind and caring people, super clean, great food and activities.

My stepmom is in Brookdale Brighton Michigan for respite care. We've got nothing but good things to say about it. It's been fabulous. It has a full suite of services. Respite care lasts 90 days, but if we need longer, we can go longer. It's been excellent. I'm not very experienced at any of this, but they're friendly and nice. They had a room available at the right price, and they seem to take good care of you. They provide lunch and dinner. If you want breakfast, there's a slight additional cha...

Brookdale Brighton Michigan was a very nice facility. It looked like it was well run and neat, and it seemed like a great place to be. We met a few staff members apart from the tour guide, like the person in charge of the medicine, the front desk, and everyone else, and they were all wearing their masks. They keep the place very clean as part of their COVID measures.

Brookdale Brighton was very open. The common areas were very open and we saw several of the residents out walking around, visiting with each other. So that was very welcoming. We saw a one-bedroom apartment and a two-bedroom as well. They had one available for us to see, and they were very nice. I just think for my Aunt Barb, she needs more of a kitchen, and she still wants to be able to cook in it. The kitchens were very small. That would probably be my only drawback. I know that they would enj...

Brookdale Brighton was very nice. The staff was very helpful, informative, and really great. I like that it's all on one level, and it's close to everything. It's very clean, well kept, and modern. It's not old. They have activities and exercise, and they take you places if you need to go.

We placed Mom at Brookdale Brighton. Right now, she's independent, and she doesn't really require any assistance yet. There was just a little mix-up with the director of the center, and he had given us a date for move-in, and these are very stressful emotional times for the person moving in because it's disrupting her memory. We got the date, and my husband and I organized the movers. We had bought her a bed to put in her new facility. I had called the facility that morning to let them know that...

I moved into Brookdale Brighton. It's very comfortable. I'm in independent living, but I got therapy going too. The staff is great, it's institutional food, and I've got a kitchenette. I've got my own TV, they have activities, but everything is in lockdown. It's very clean.

Brookdale Brighton's community is friendly and we got to know a lot of people in a short time. We play cards, we exercise, and we got a game room and a library. They have a room where you can go and talk if you just want to have a muffin in the morning. They also have a private dining room for guests. We were kind of disappointed in the way they were doing some things in the menus, but it was very easy to join in the conversation about the diet and make it very convenient, and they have improved...

Brookdale Brighton was reasonably priced and they have a lot of amenities that you can choose from. I didn't like that they don't have wheelchairs available for visitors or the people that live there. The staff was very nice. I also didn't like that it was too fancy. They have white linen tablecloths and pianos everywhere, and it had very fancy decors. We had lunch there and the food was very good. I liked that it was all on the ground floor, and it's big enough that you can make friends there a...

Brookdale Brighton was perfect and immaculately clean. The aides were very good to my mother, and she loved all of them. The food was good. The staff was very friendly, so good, and helpful to me.

Brookdale Brighton is a one-story building and quite expensive. They have some a nice garden in the building because it is in a square, but it needs a lot of updating. The people were very nice.

We placed Mom at Brookdale Brighton. She has her own apartment with a bedroom, a kitchenette, and bathroom. Their dining room is very nice and spacious. It’s really nice-looking, kept-up place without a bad smell. They have a lot of very helpful staff. If I call them and tell them to check on my mom, they do so right away and I get a call back after 10 minutes. They have a thing that they wear around their necks and a cord to pull in the bathroom in case of any emergencies. Overall, I find the p...

We visited Brookdale Brighton. It was very nice and very clean. We met just one guy, Greg, who was very helpful. He gave us a very nice tour and showed us around. There were a lot of nice amenities and social activities. He showed us two different rooms that were very nice and small but very adequate for senior living.

My father was at Emeritus at Brighton. It was wonderful. The staff was wonderful. They treated my father great. Food was OK. However, they need to improve on the food. They have just remodeled the dining room, and it was very nice. They did trips, they had people coming in and singing, and they went out to eat. They did a lot of different things. They had a lot of crafts. My father said he never played bingo, but there, he loved it. Everybody was so nice there. Security was good because they had...

We have Emeritus for my mom so she’s all set. It was the closest one. As soon as we walked in, they were very accommodating and pleasant. The staff is really nice. They do what they say they’re going to do, so that’s good. They don’t have a lot of activities, but they have activities a couple of times a week. They have an exercise area. They have a bus that goes places and trips a couple of times a week where groups can go. She likes the food.

Emeritus at Brighton was also very nice. That was my second choice for my mother. The rooms were very nice. The staff was very friendly. The dining area was nice.

I went to visit a friend of mine at Emeritus at Brighton. He has a little studio apartment and it’s a good size. It has a little kitchenette with refrigerator; it's nice old place really. He is very happy there. This is a big improvement for him and he enjoyed it. He has been there probably about a year now. The staff that I saw seemed to be very, very good. They provide transportation for the residents that takes them to the grocery store. They also take them out to lunch to different areas eve...

My parents are at Emeritus at Brighton. They have been there for probably five years already. When we first put them there, it was great, but as their ailing health declines and they need more care, the cost goes up. That's where the lines meet and you go from there. Their health is deteriorating but it's not Emeritus' fault. They just need more care and we can't afford it. My mom is in a wheelchair and my dad is on a walker and both need 24-hour care, so we're going to have to take care of them...

I liked nothing about Emeritus. The size was not there. I found that place to be very depressing. It's dark and it's not very friendly. The staff was okay but it wasn't one that I would have selected. The ambience is terrible.

I broke my hip and I was in an assisted living facility called Emeritus at Brighton. The place is very good, clean, and very well kept. The rooms were great and the food was just A+. The cooking was excellent. I had a good rapport with everybody there.

When I went to this retirement home, I liked what they were doing. All of the staff members were too kind and treated you with great respect. The food served there was pretty good as well. They offered nice activities such as an exercise program and socials. I feel like they are really trying to do all that they can in order to make the lives easier of the person residing there. Some of the amenities offered there are transportation, snacks and laundry. What I was really fond of was that pets un...

I would be carefull with this selection. If your loved one does not need extensive care, this may be the place. However, you need to constantly monitor/remind/request services paid for, don't always get done. Clean/neat facility. Mananagement poor. Staff friendly. Name change of facility does not change quality/services rendered. Use caution when selecting this one.

I think that Emeritus at Brighton is an excellent choice for placement for someone who is looking for placement for a friend or a family member. The common grounds are very beautifully landscaped, structured and very well maintained and very tasteful to the eye and so are the surrounding neighborhoods. The common areas of the facility sit on five acres of land with the most beautiful trees surrounding the areas. Emeritus at Brighton also have a vast majority of country yards for their residen...
