BrightStar Senior Living of Madison provides both Assisted Living and Memory Care, with programming designed to address residents who wander in the morning or evening, attempt elopement, display combative or behavioral issues, stay up all night, or live with advanced dementia. The team is trained to manage chronic conditions such as diabetes—whether controlled by oral medication or injections—and supports residents who require oxygen, specialized diets, or wound care. Adults under 60 who need these same services can also be accommodated.
Care is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff, a nurse on call around the clock, and awake overnight staffing to monitor residents and respond quickly. Doors are alarmed, and background checks are standard for all employees. Full-service assistance is available with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers, and on-site podiatry services reduce the need for off-site appointments. An activity director plans structured engagement that aligns with each resident’s care plan.
Residences can include a private bathroom, kitchenette, individual climate controls, and cable service, along with regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry. Because floor plans vary, not every unit contains every feature, so it is best to confirm availability during a visit.
Meals follow a set menu, and alternative options are available for gluten-free diets, mechanically chopped or puréed foods, and thickened liquids. Snacks are on hand throughout the day, room service can be arranged for in-room dining, and a private dining room may be reserved for family gatherings.
Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, a wellness center, internet access, concierge assistance, and proximity to public transportation. Pets are allowed. It's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
