What Our Families Say

We could fill several websites telling you about our supportive, purpose-built design, personalized life-enrichment programs, and exceptional care and services … but, while remarkable and unique, those are merely the ingredients we use to create the real magic of Bridges – the magic that is shown on the faces of our residents and felt in the hearts of their families.

A COMFORTABLE, HOMEY FEEL

From my initial contact through the first month, I cannot say enough about the staff at Bridges. I had an urgent situation develop that required me to move my Aunt into memory care over long distance. The Bridges team stepped up to help in every area needed, and ensured that the initial transition went as smoothly as possible. I finally was able to visit, and complete my Aunt’s personal property move, and was impressed with the warmth, cleanliness and design of the facility – it has a comfortable, homey feel. And the staff – every interaction was delightful, you all love what you do! I am so relieved that we have found such a wonderful and safe environment for this stage of my Aunt’s life

A WELCOMING ATMOSPHERE

I have visited Bridges several times assisting my friend’s son transitioning his mother to her home. It is the most welcoming atmosphere with knowledgeable, caring, compassionate staff who are always available to answer questions. The activities are so fun and engaging for the residents. 5 stars!

BRIGHTENED HIS DAY

I want to say how impressed I am with the Bridges staff in the Hollis residents’ house. A week or so ago my husband was sitting by the staff station doing nothing. I came in, sat down beside him, and said my usual stuff to him. He continued to sit there not acknowledging much. Then all of the sudden, this staff member came up to him and said “Hi, my handsome John. Will you dance with me?” She was singing and dancing and he got himself right up out of the chair and went along with her. (It was always like pulling teeth to get this guy to dance with me. I sure wish I knew back then what the Bridges staff had that I didn’t.) Then I realized this young woman had just been mopping the floor a few minutes prior. I am more apt to expect this from the caregiving staff. She was amazing with my husband. She brightened his day, and mine, too. Then, this past Sunday, I was visiting when an aide came and said John, there is live music in the community room in a half hour. I asked him if he wanted to go, and he said yes. That hour or so that I spent with him in that room with the other residents made my WEEK! As the singer sang, I realized these people may not know their own names, but they knew every word to every 50s and 60s songs. I listened to them all sing and clap their hands and tap their feet. When I left John, I had such a high. I couldn’t wait to tell my Alzheimer’s support group the next day at our regular weekly meeting.

Helpful Presentations

OMG that was the best ZOOM this morning. This is helping me immensely. It is a “must see” for my two other siblings and, with luck both, of my parents. I will certainly be signing up for more presentations.

Special Efforts

My Dad spent close to eight months at Bridges and we are so thankful for all the care he received. We really appreciate all the special efforts that the community went through to keep patients and families connected during these long Covid months. Thank you! Thank you!
