What this means for your family

While recent residents and families report a warm, clean, and engaging environment, be aware that a significant portion of the positive reviews come from business vendors rather than residents. During your tour, ask management directly about their leadership philosophy and how they handle resident grievances to address the serious concerns raised in past reviews.

β€œNew Westside Terrace receives high praise from residents and family members for its caring staff and clean, inviting environment. However, the facility's online reputation is heavily skewed by reviews from vendors and service providers rather than residents, and there is a serious, specific allegation of abusive management practices during the pandemic.”
