Briston Manor West

We've been at Briston Manor West for about a week now, and it looks like a good fit. Our room is very well-maintained and seems to be very efficient. The dining area is very pleasant, and so far, the food has been good. The staff is very good and have been prompt so far.

My sister was in Briston Manor in February and part of March. It’s an older building, but they keep it up and clean it. They provide one meal a day. They have a community room where people can go and watch video. They played games; it’s a very nice senior living area. The food is OK and very well prepared. The staff is wonderful, very helpful, and very congenial.

We live in Brinton Manor; it's very nice and we have our own patio. You can eat meals at the other building or have it here. They offer bus rides to your doctor or appointments and they take you shopping three times a week. They have all kinds of activities but I don?t really attend. They have bible studies and trips. The staff is very punctual and attentive.

My mom and I had toured Briston Manor West and I was very impressed. Though they had only one meal a day and they said it was lunch, some ate their main meal for lunch and ate the soup and salad for dinner. So, all they had to worry about was breakfast. They also had muffins and coffee once a week. I liked that the whole facility was in one level. They had apartment style in the building and they had these little cabins outside. You could have your own little house with a nice size patio at the back. The house and the apartment had the same price. However, in the apartment you would get heat and hot water, while in the house you had to pay your own. They had so many activities and so many great things there for the price. They had a bus that could take them to groceries, shopping and doctor's appointment, which was included in the rent. They had chair exercises, entertainment and movies. If you had your car, they had somebody to clean up your car during winter. It was a little higher class facility and it's in a safe area so it was a nice place to walk. It was unbelievably great. The only reason why we weren't able to choose it was because my mom wanted to be in her home state.
