Wellbridge of Brighton has a middle-range Medicare overall rating. Strengths include modern, clean, and well-maintained facility. Some reviewers note concerns about neglect and lack of basic hygiene care (bathing/changing) (mentioned by 8 reviewers).

WellBridge of Brighton presents a stark contrast in experiences, with many reviewers praising the facility's modern, hotel-like aesthetics and effective rehabilitation therapy. However, a significant number of families report serious concerns regarding neglect, poor communication, and inconsistent staffing, particularly during off-hours or for patients with complex medical needs.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was there for one month and had to taken out by ambulance to hospital due to what in my opinion was inappropriate care. Additionally room was not kept clean, very dirty.”
“My dad was there for 2 days sadly the staff took forever to check him into the place then i tried calling to check on no one would answer the phone and when they did told me they couldn't help me.”
“I was just informed that ALL patients landlines phones have been REMOVED from the rooms. A patient must have a cell phone to be able to have contact outside of Wellbridge.”
