Security personnel wear navy pants with French blue shirts and security badges. The landscaping department has a slightly different standard uniform. They use navy Dockers with burgundy and navy striped polos with the logo on the left sleeve. Melanie Price, director of special care with Brighton Gardens in Memphis, Tennessee, says Marriott, owner of Brighton Gardens, is very big on uniforms. Everyone wears khaki pants with a polo shirt with the company logo.
Nursing assistants wear a smock over the polo.
Each department wears a different color shirt, and everyone wears white socks and white shoes. When choosing uniforms for your community, try to avoid those with an institutional look. Pastel uniforms have a softer, friendlier look than white ones. Allowing some flexibility in the colors and styles while keeping a neat, professional appearance will make for a happier staff.
