The Rivers at Maryland Farms

What we like the most about The Rivers is just the atmosphere, plus the care my wife has been receiving. She's treated like a person rather than a number. I've been pleased with the recent improvements and upgrades the Rivers have undertaken. We would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had,

Our family was happy with the care mom received. The staff was very caring and the community areas were very clean and beautifully furnished. As her health declined, we were able to raise her care level affordably. We picked this community because of the location and cost.

So don't get me wrong, this place is very nice and the staff is mostly warm and welcoming, but when we had signed up it was based on this pretty good deal that I thought we were getting (not necessarily an incentive, but just a deal on the monthly rent). Now my mom hasn't even been there 2 full months and they're already raising her rent a considerable amount! I'm trying to get a hold of management to speak with about this but it feels like they're avoiding my calls and still won't call me back. It just feels real deceptive and kind of a dirty trick. I remember the sales manager even telling me what a good deal we were getting because the rent was going up, but as in this shouldn't affect us! I guess I'm the sucker for not expecting the rent to go up so soon.

We have had a pleasant experience so far. My sister has more physical challenges than most of the residents but the staff continue to work with my sister to make her feel welcome and included as much as she is willing and able to participate.

We made our choice for my mom‘s placement with a lot of care. We looked at a lot of places before we chose The Rivers at Maryland Farms. They are in the middle of a major renovation and have done everything possible to minimize the impact to the residences. Every single staff member has treated my mom with care and kindness and dignity. There’s been a couple of standouts as well. They have continued to improve the activities for the MC group and sometimes include them with the active living group. Without exception, every member of the staff I have interacted with has known who my mom is. I am so happy with our choice and highly recommend to other families.

A place for mom took my info and matched us and made appointments with 8 facilities within 5-10 minutes of us. They were great choices and we picked the best one. The Rivers of Maryland Farms has a staff that is incredibly patient, caring and kind. They take great care of my mom, updating and being sure she is taken care of. It’s newly remodeled and beautiful. Large front porch when the weather is nice and lots of activities. The residents there are kind and really look out for each other. We think it’s a great community!

Excellent experience in every way. Professional staff. Just be sure to communicate with managers about evening trash removal. If someone uses incontinence products, they may come in the middle of the night or wee hours of the morning to empty trash, but management can post a sign not to do that per family's wishes. Otherwise, very vibrant atmosphere.

Lost a lot of clothes with name on them. Medication management poor. Increased dose causing combative episode at 1 am, hospital evaluation for 3 weeks, then home. Staff cared less about separating clothes, personal items. Ok if patients wore other people's clothes. Only assisted when I strongly insisted, otherwise no effort or policy changes

A very nice place, but needs some care and organization improvements. I knew my mom was safe and in a nice environment.

The waitress gets my order on time. My meal is being served on time. Anytime I want anything, they always serve me.

Great staff and facility!! My dad likes it there and they take excellent care of him! Very caring from the sales staff, business department, and care team. Always caring and helpful. Top notch care.

We picked this community because of the location, price and tour with [name removed] was promising and accomadating.Community was in the process of changing management. I'm sure that led to the poor communication that led to my dissatisfaction with management.

A difficult experience adjusting to living away from family but I feel that residents and staff learn to care for one another and it has helped. When there is a problem they take care of it.

I'm home.

We had been living in independent care in a senior living facility in Bellevue and we decided we needed to be in assisted living so we made applications at Harmony of Brentwood and Brighton Gardens. Brighton came open about the same time as Harmony. Our appointment with Brighton was first and we had a really good meeting with the marketing director. She was very open and informative to us and we decided to come here. We have been very happy here and plan for this to be our home for ever. The staff here has been very welcoming to us. The food is very good and we could not ask for anything better than the living conditions here. Every detail about this place was explained to us and we have had no surprises. We are so happy to be here.

I had no where to go. I was in a nursing home for rehab and would have to go back with family which was not working out at all. The rivers made it against all odds to find a place for me. The staff is delightful and so is the food and nursing care. I will never want to be anywhere else except with Jesus.

Our family has had a very good experience with Brighton Gardens of Brentwood and would recommend them to other families looking for a community for their loved one. The caregivers were very kind to our mother and she was very comfortable with them.

As I get to know more of the people they seem to be very genuine and trying to do a good job. Compared to the other facilities I saw, they are the best for the money. All are over priced in my opinion. They have added more staff and are making good changes. I am excited about the future with Brighton Gardens of Brentwood.
