Brightwater Assisted Living in Myrtle Beach, SC
5.0

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!

Everything is going well for my mother since her move to this community. She is doing well, and I'am pleased with all they have done for us. This community is working out pretty well for us, and it is a good place with kind people.
