Review

BrightStar Senior Living of Fort Wayne is a facility that offers both assisted living and memory care services. While the facility itself is beautiful, there are mixed reviews about the memory care program. Some reviewers found the activities to be scattered and childish, with a lack of visual stimulation and holiday decorations. They felt that residents in Memory Care didn't have much to do besides wandering around. However, the facility was described as clean and new, with rooms similar to hotel rooms.

One reviewer mentioned that there was a small kitchen area in the rooms, but it wasn't functional for everyday use. They appreciated the friendly staff who gave them a tour, but were disappointed with the small dining area and menu options. Flower arranging, Bible studies, and supervised reading were mentioned as some of the activities provided for memory care residents.

Another reviewer praised the cleanliness and lack of offensive odors at BrightStar Senior Living of Fort Wayne. They also mentioned amenities such as a salon and general-use computer. However, they ultimately decided against choosing this facility due to higher costs and difficulty with driving in traffic.

Despite some concerns about price, several reviewers spoke positively about BrightStar Senior Living of Fort Wayne. One reviewer mentioned that the food was better than other homes their aunt had been in. Another praised the welcoming and accommodating senior staff members they encountered during their visit.

The size of BrightStar Senior Living of Fort Wayne was often noted by reviewers. The smaller community allowed for more personalized care from staff members who got to know residents well. However, one reviewer felt that the units were too small for their liking, especially for those who preferred spending time in their apartments.

Overall, BrightStar Senior Living of Fort Wayne received mixed reviews but seemed to leave a positive impression on many visitors. The cleanliness of the facility, friendly staff members, and various amenities were commonly appreciated aspects. Some concerns were raised about limited activities and smaller dining areas, while others found these issues less significant.
