Key Review Excerpts

The staff is wonderful. They are attentive, kind, and truly know their residents. They know and address everyone by name, know their needs, and are always there to help.

Family member of resident · 2025★★★★★

The place is immaculate clean. However false promises are made and very rarely followed through. Events are planned and it looks great on paper but they’re mostly always canceled.

Long-term resident's family · 2021★★★☆☆

My mother has been at The Bristal at Westbury for almost a year. We've been very happy with the facility. Although my mother is not a "joiner," at age 92 she's been participating in the myriad of activities that are available.
