Brightview Senior Living has recently been awarded the prestigious recognition of being among the best in the senior living sector by U.S. News & World Report for the year 2025. Out of over 3,800 evaluated communities, an impressive 93% of Brightview's communities have achieved this esteemed status, setting a high benchmark in the industry. This accolade underscores Brightview's unwavering commitment to delivering high-quality living environments tailored to the needs of seniors across various stages of care.
Founded as a senior living owner, developer, and operator, Brightview manages 47 communities strategically located across eight states on the East Coast. The recent ratings evaluated each community based on several critical criteria, including safety, care quality, community management, and satisfaction levels among residents and their families. Reports suggest that less than half of the communities assessed by U.S. News received a Best rating, highlighting the exceptional standards maintained by Brightview.
"At Brightview, we prioritize the happiness and engagement of our associates, which directly translates to the satisfaction of our residents," expressed Doug Dollenberg, Jr., President and CEO of Brightview Senior Living. He emphasized the hard work and commitment exhibited by their team members, noting that their dedication is essential in fostering an environment where both associates and residents thrive together.
This year's Best Senior Living ratings mark the fourth annual evaluation by U.S. News, reflecting the opinions gathered from over 450,000 consumer surveys which scrutinized various facets of community living. Communities that received this distinction must meet rigorous, data-driven standards set by U.S. News, ensuring that only the highest-rated communities across different care levels, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care, earned a Best rating.
The results reaffirm the importance of transparent, data-backed assessments for families seeking senior living options. "Choosing a senior living community is a significant decision for seniors and their families, and the Best Senior Living ratings serve as a valuable resource for in-depth quality evaluations," stated Ben Harder, managing editor and chief of health analysis at U.S. News.
In addition to this recent accolade, Brightview Senior Living has also been included in the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® list for 2025, further cementing its reputation as an attractive workplace in the senior living sector. The company offers diverse living arrangements, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, Enhanced Care, and specialized Memory Care through their Wellspring Village™ for seniors facing dementia-related challenges.
Brightview’s approach to senior living emphasizes wellness through a holistic framework known as SPICE—spiritual, physical, intellectual, cultural, and emotional well-being.
