It is such a pretty campus. It doesn't feel like other senior living in town. This is elegant and beautiful.

Amen to the food issue! My mother lives here and the food service, all around, is a BIG problem. It's definitely the most negative aspect of her experience - hard to take when they just raised the rent! They seem to have high turnover in waitstaff, so are often shorthanded; sometimes it takes 30+ minutes of sitting there before their food actually comes to the table. They sometimes are "out" of the most basic things, like eggs or salad dressing! I would say that the problem is in the kitchen management, because the waitstaff are typically really good, caring people and seem to be trying their best in a tough situation. On a more positive note, the nurses, med-techs and aides at Bridgewood are REALLY great. They are positive and supportive, they KNOW the residents, they are prompt in responding, and they truly seem to care. The programming is good, with lots of opportunities for exercise and brain "games", sometimes outings and live music, and community events.

My parent lives in Bridgewood. Every time I talk to my parent, they complain about the poor food quality. The food quality and preparation is bad, the menu is poorly planned. Other than the poor quality food that doesn't ever improve, the facility is well-maintained and clean, with a wonderful staff. Though the kitchen staff doesn't seem responsive to criticism. I wish the food quality would improve.
