Brightview Great Falls Receives Two Awards
Brightview Great Falls was honored with Resident Satisfaction and Associate Engagement Awards at Brightview Senior Living’s recent annual awards gala held in Baltimore, Md.
“These honors are a direct result of what our residents and our associates say about the community,” said executive director Tina Aulakh. “Residents and associates have created an outstanding community. I am so proud to be part of this special group.”
Resident Satisfaction and Associate Engagement Awards are selected from the communities with the highest Overall Satisfaction Score in each category based on confidential, online surveys conducted annually by a third party. Brightview operates more than thirty communities in eight states and Brightview Great Falls was the first community to win in both categories in the same year.
Located in Great Falls, Brightview Great Falls features 90 apartment homes with Assisted Living and Wellspring Village, a secure neighborhood for Alzheimer’s and dementia care. The community opened in September 2014.
Brightview Senior Living and its parent company, The Shelter Group, successfully create and manage innovative, award-winning senior living communities in the mid-Atlantic to New England region. For more information on Brightview Senior Living, please visit www.brightviewseniorliving.com .
