Independent Living
All prominent senior living communities have well-appointed housing options with a variety of health, wellness and entertainment programs. What makes Brightwater standout are its Move Coordinator and Mentoring Program. The Brightwater Move Coordinator works with you, your movers and Brightwater staff to make your move as stress free and worry free as possible. While there are plenty of paid staff, at Brightwater, to take care of your needs, what is unique and very meaningful, to newcomers, is the Resident Personal Mentoring Program. Your personal resident mentor introduces you to your new “family”. They have dinner with you. They may accompany you to social events or just “walk with you” as you begin to make your way through the next phase in your life. Your personal mentor is not paid to be nice to you, but chooses to help us newbies find our way around physically and emotionally. Brightwater walks the talk!
Moving mom to an independent living apartment was of course very stressful. Chosing the right facility and getting buy-in from mom, who had a 3 bedroom 2 bath house by herself was sometimes tenuous. A place for mom helped to make the right facility choice. The fact that momcould take her little dog with her to Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle was the turning point. Mom's apartment is just right for her and the personal are great.
Portside at Grande Dunes community is a wonderful place staffed by caring people, we would give them all 5 stars. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to others - my 90 year old mother-in-law is very happy there. There is also a 10% discount for military service.
