We appreciate your positive review about your recent experience with us!
I toured this community when I was looking into options for my loved one. I have had some experience with the place in the past, it was the facility my mother-in-law stayed at. It's a very nice community, they keep it looking well kept and clean and the staff are all very friendly. We didn't end up selecting this community this time around, I wanted something located a bit closer to me, and we wanted something smaller and more homey.

Hi D L, thank you so much for your positive comments about Tampa Gardens Senior Living!
A major factor for choosing Brighton Gardens was location, it is very close to me. But I also really liked that they have a level of care manager assigned for each resident. So each resident is seen by the same person everyday. Also, they have the additional care services at Brighton Gardens like nursing care and memory care should it be needed. I liked that it was available at the facility so I wouldn't have to worry about moving mom should she need more care services. Brighton Gardens is a really nice place, they are dog f... read more

Activities are good. Many to choose from. Unfortunately they were without their van for several months so no off campus trips were available. Now that the van is back they only have a weekly trip to one of the local stores (Walmart, Target, Publix, etc). One of the reasons we chose Tampa Gardens was due to their outings to area attractions. (Animal shelter, aquarium, etc). None of those are offered any longer. Food doesn't seem as good as when my mom first got there. That could just be her though. Dining room always looks go... read more

We appreciate all feedback and apologize if we have not fully met your expectations. We tend not to take trips during the heat of the summer, but want you to be on the lookout for a schedule of outings starting in the fall. Thanks for your kind words about the staff and the dining room. Your helpful comments about housekeeping and outings will be shared with local and regional management as training improvements.
Found mom unresponsive more than once, no supervision when feeding. Front office was great, nursing not so much. Mom expressed how much she hated it here. Food was good, but mom needed help being fed and because of that she ate less. They tried twice to get mom to activities, then stopped. They promised a lower price, but was more than the place she came from due to the elevated care she needed.
Business response:
We believe that this review was meant for another senior living community. The mother stayed only briefly because she wanted to live at another place close by. None of these issues took place at our community. Her son expressed thanks for our team.
Sadly their bus broke down in November. Recently they got a van that is not handicapped equipped. Residents have been having to pay 20-40$ to get to store or doctors. No lunches or outings. Vet y sad.
Business response:
We apologize for the inconveniences that you may experienced, and thank you for your patience. We expect to have the transportation up and running by mid-May.
I have multiple friends that live here and since the new management there is NO Transportation to speak of. The bus does not run and even if it did it has no wheelchair lift. Residents are instructed to call ride service and pay for it themselves! Their advertisements say transportation is provided and complimentary. People in this type of community clearly need transportation to medical appointments. Budgets are planned on it. This change is definitely contrary to their current website!
Business response:
We apologize for any inconvenience that you may experience with our transportation service. It is our hope that the transportation situation will be ratified soon.
