The team at The Bristal at Westbury is top notch. My mom experienced a health crisis and she moved to The Bristal directly from the hospital. The team guided us through the process and the nurse even visited her in the hospital to provide reassurance and encouragement. Its taken her a few months to adjust but with the support of Olga and the team she is feeling better, no longer isolated, eating healthy meals, and my sisters and can sleep better at night knowing she is safe.
