Community Reviews
No clear cost
reviewed on: 03/15/2017 by AnonymousWe toured this community when looking for my dad and it was nice. The meals looked good.The issue we had is there was no set price. There we additional costs for certain amenities.They wanted us to get an evaluation with the doctor before moving in and the price could have changed between that time because of care needs. We felt that the cost was too flexible for someone on a fixed income.
Not Kosher!
reviewed on: 02/28/2017 by AnonymousThis place provides excellent care to their patients. I really am impressed with this community. They are always very, very clean and neat. The only thing that stopped us was that they are not a Kosher community and that is what my uncle wanted.
Better Than Expected!
reviewed on: 04/02/2019 by FeliceMy mom has been in the Memory Care unit at The Bristal at Westbury. She is still getting acclimated, but I do see a positive difference in her. They give each resident special attention, the food looks very good, the unit is clean and the staff couldn't be better. The thought of my mom leaving her home after 50 years was overwhelming for both of us. She seems to finally be adjusting, and speaks less of going home. I'm confident I made the right decision for her, and am grateful there is an option like this to provide the specific care she needs for her Alzheimer's.
Be Aware of Unexpected Non-Refundable Entry Fees
reviewed on: 06/01/2018 by NephewAfter a review by Bristal staff, a relative was accepted into Bristal At Westbury. Overall, the level of care was thought to be satisfactory. It soon became apparent that my relative would need a higher level of care than first thought. The Bristal staff made it very clear that this would not fit their operating and support model. They asked my relative to leave, with little advance warning. We did find a replacement facility, which was not easy, at an increased cost. But, in trying to get back what we thought was a portion of the initial two-month deposit ($15,000), we learned that one month $7,500 was actually a non-refundable initial fee. Bottom line-out $7,500. This was NOT explained to us when our relative moved in. We were told there was no way to recover this money. Is essence, it was in the small print of the contract. I suggest any new senior citizens considering moving into a Bristal review the agreement very carefully and fully understand that you are paying a significant up-front, nonrefundable fee to to into one of these facilities, should you leave after 30 days. Hope this information is helpful Family Member
A New and Spotless Home
reviewed on: 10/30/2013 by MicheleMy mom recently moved into the Bristal at Westbury. The staff has been very attentive and has overseen the transition of my mother to her first assisted living situation. As issues have come up, the management has patiently responded to my and my mother's concerns. The entire building is "spic and span" clean and spotless, and there is a pleasant atmosphere throughout. My mom has enjoyed some of the group activities and has found the meals to be delicious. It has been a tremendous relief to have her medication managed by the Bristal and have her doctor and physical therapist available on site.
