Care
Assisted Living
A living option for seniors or individuals who require assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication management while maintaining a level of independence. Assisted living facilities offer personalized care plans and social activities that promote quality of life for their residents.
Independent Living
Designed to help older adults who want to maintain an active and independent lifestyle, these communities offer services and amenities that cater to residents’ needs, while encouraging a sense of community and freedom from the responsibilities of owning a home.
Memory Care
Memory care communities offer specialized care and support for individuals dealing with memory-related conditions, such as Alzheimer’s or dementia. These facilities are equipped with trained staff and offer engaging activities designed to promote well-being while ensuring a safe living environment.
Life Plan/CCRCs
Also referred to as Life Plan Communities, these communities offer a comprehensive continuum of care for residents. CCRCs offer multiple levels of care, allowing seniors to transition between independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing care as their needs change throughout their aging journey.
Active Adult
Active adult communities are vibrant residential neighborhoods designed specifically for individuals typically 55 and older. These communities offer a range of amenities, as well as recreational and social activities.
Senior Apartments
Senior apartments are designed for older adults, featuring amenities and services. These apartments offer a maintenance-free lifestyle with access to social activities, promoting active living and independence.
Skilled Nursing
Skilled nursing and nursing homes are residential facilities that offer medical care and support for individuals that require a higher level of medical attention and assistance. These are staffed by licensed healthcare providers and offer a range of services to ensure the well-being and comfort of residents.
Home Care
Home care typically offers nonclinical support for Activities of Daily Living (ADL) like bathing and dressing, as well as Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) such as transportation, meal preparation, and medication reminders, all provided in the comfort of one’s home.
Neighborhood
Pulling from a variety of reliable data sources, Walk Score® measures the walkability of any address, helping you understand how easy it is to live a car-free lifestyle. Transit Score®, when available, measures how well a location is served by public transit. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more amenities within walking distance and diverse transit options nearby.

I recently helped my parents move into Brightwater independent living. We started the process of evaluating independent living options for my parents back in November. We looked at several in the area, and they were nice, but Brightwater had a warm feel and everyone we met there was happy. It is very unusual these days to find a place that so many people from all backgrounds and places come together and are so friendly with each other. I spent almost a month there during my parents move-in and continue to be impressed every day with the quality of care and the feeling you get as you walk through the facility. The food is delicious (the other places seemed a bit more institutional in food choice and quality). The facilities are beautiful and well maintained, even though it is the oldest of the ones we looked at. My parents are very happy there, although a bit overwhelmed by the change in their life (all good). Their only regret is that they didn't make the move sooner, where they could really enjoy all Brightwater has to offer. I know in my gut, this was the right move for them, and I believe it will extend their life and the enjoyment of the time they have left. Thank you to all at Brightwater for making it such a wonderful place. It really is special and very comforting to visit my parents knowing they are in a great community of people that can support and nurture them.

Have visited the facility a number of times during the past 6 months. Having decided it was a great place for us, we had our 4 children visit to get their opinion. All 4 agreed it would be a great place for us, consequently we are moving forward and having a cottage being built. Looking forward to moving in to our new home in August/September.

The health care here was terrible for my father. Staff would have let him die today or tomorrow if we hadn't intervened and had him sent to an ER, upon which he was immediately sent to ICU for blood transfusions. This may be a great place for shuffleboard and activities for healthy, but it's not a health care facility that is in patients/family's best interests. For profit means shareholders first. Gotta get those big bonuses.
