4.4 · 69 reviewsAfter spending time around this community, the biggest concern was the apparent lack of ethical decision-making from leadership. There seemed to be a stronger focus on filling vacancies than ensuring residents were truly appropriate for the environment and level of care being offered. That kind of approach impacts everyone in the building, including other residents whose comfort and safety should come first.

After spending time around this community, the biggest concern was the apparent lack of ethical decision-making from leadership. There seemed to be a stronger focus on filling vacancies than ensuring residents were truly appropriate for the environment and level of care being offered. That kind of approach impacts everyone in the building, including other residents whose comfort and safety should come first. Combined with the extremely high turnover, it creates the impression of a community operating in constant reaction mode rather than with stable leadership and thoughtful planning. Based on what I observed, I personally would not feel comfortable placing my own mother or father in this community.

The staff at The Bridge have been so wonderful and helpful in helping place my Aunt and Uncle. From Ginny at reception to Amy and Katrina, they all have been so welcoming and encouraging during a difficult time. We have no doubt this will be a perfect home for them to start their next chapter.
Great place to live
The facility is very clean and bright. High ceilings, large windows, and nice furnishings. The staff have been so helpful and accessible, answering emails very quickly and making suggestions for my dad. Im super impressed with the physician group they use for their medical care. The PA spoke with me for a half hour about my dad's care and made sure she understood his history. Highly reccomend.
I like The Bridge at Orlando. The place is outstanding, but it's just very pricey. They're very friendly, knowledgeable, very professional, and very open. They know what they're doing, and they know their job very well. The structure is very well kept, very ample, very comfortable, very clean, and very well kept inside and out. The size of the rooms was standard. They are the same as all the other facilities that I toured, but they are comfortable, and the size is enough for one person.
Overall, we have been very pleased as a family regarding our mom’s experiences in the first month. There are certainly things we should have better prepared ourselves; understanding the care plan better, knowing who to contact, how to support our mom to help her acclimate. The team at the Bridge have been very helpful and everyone at the facility genuinely cares about their residents. Another “need to know” is better understand our long term care insurance policy. It’s a lot to balance the facility, the insurance company, the care providers, and the family. Lots to consider and how to succeed in securing the benefit that we have planned for.
