Brighton Gardens of Wheaton is an assisted-living community designed for residents who need help with daily routines while still wanting to maintain as much independence as possible. Licensed nurses coordinate care with on-site and visiting medical professionals, and the community offers access to physical therapy, doctor visits, diabetes management, and structured respite stays for short-term recovery or caregiver relief. These clinical services are integrated into each resident’s personal care plan, making it straightforward to adjust support levels if health needs change.

To back up the medical services, the building is equipped with an emergency call system in every apartment, giving residents a direct link to staff 24 hours a day. Fire safety is addressed through a sprinkler system installed throughout the property. Staff members are trained to respond quickly to alerts, manage medication schedules, and coordinate closely with outside healthcare providers when additional treatment or evaluations are required.

Apartments range from studio and efficiency layouts to units with kitchenettes, wheelchair-accessible showers, and handicap-accessible features. Central air conditioning, window treatments, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and optional parking are available, although not every accommodation includes every feature. Residents can also take advantage of landscaped grounds, outdoor areas, and an outdoor garden for fresh air and relaxation. Housekeeping services are provided to maintain a clean living environment.

Dining is organized around an all-day service model, so residents can eat on their own schedule. Meals are prepared by a professional chef and can be customized for low-sodium, no-sugar, gluten-free, or other dietary requirements. Healthy snacks are available between meals, and guests can join residents for mealtime when arranged in advance. The kitchen staff coordinates closely with medical and wellness teams to ensure nutritional needs align with individual care plans.

Residents have access to a library and computer lounge, an activity center, clubs and communities, organized social outings, and a full calendar of health and wellness programs. Arts and crafts sessions, TV and movie nights, yoga classes, swimming, bingo, and birthday parties are routinely offered. Allowed outdoor activities, off-site excursions, and Live Well programs give residents additional ways to stay active and engaged.
