It’s a struggle

Lovely building, great food, kind aides and cleaning staff. Management is a revolving door. Communication is very poor on all levels. Families need to advocate for their loved ones and manage their care daily. Price is high for the amount of oversight loved ones have to do. The potential for a successful facility is there but right now it’s a struggle.

Definitely recommended

My parents are very happy with the food. The staff is very accommodating and responsive. Everything is here for them. They even did an x-ray and ECG test right in the room. Someone to drive them to outside doctor appointments is a great perk. The move in process was very straightforward. Being a pet-friendly residence is priceless, because my parents won't go anywhere without their pets. I would definitely recommend The Bristal to anyone.

Review for The Bristal at Armonk

Attractive facility. Convenient. Seemed similar to others I visited. Thought there would be more robust level of activities. Worth considering with positives and negatives as outlined in earlier answers. Caveat is I have limited experience so far and there have been some recent changes to management. Hoping that leads to more staff and activity programs for memory care. Also, unlock doors to outdoor patios during warmer days.

The perfect place for my dad

I am very pleased with what the staff members have done for my dad at The Bristal. He is a big walker and they have been under quarantine, the staff took it upon themselves to still go get him and take him for daily walks. They have gone above and beyond and he is just thrilled with the care he is receiving here as am I. The food is good, the people are phenomenal, and he has made some friends. Overall, we are very happy, it gives me peace of mind knowing he is being well taken care of. They have been great with communication and always call me with any updates. I cannot say enough good things about the facility.

My mom and dad lived here from Sept to Spring. It was generally a good experience. Mom in Reflections Memory care, Dad in assisted living. They were not easy, dad had stage 4 cancer and was difficult, but I have to say though the staff is very nice and the place beautiful, they are reactive not proactive overall. Be prepared to pay close attention if you have a loved one living there who is beyond the most basic assisted living level.

A terrible place for mom

An absolute disaster. They took an already awful situation and made us feel worse as a family facing a parent with early dementia. They are not at all equipped to handle adults with any cognitive issues. They have no mental health staff on in the evenings when the mind is at its worst and the nurses called me screaming at me when there was a problem. Even though they offer many levels of care before full time memory care unit, they forced me to hire private full time aides costing more then $20,000 a month in addition to their fees. This was done to several residents while my mom had her very brief stay at the Bristal. The management is cold and unfeeling and after they get your money they dont want to know you. If I could give 0 stars I would have. A complete and total disappointment.

Caring and clean and comforting and aesthetically beautiful

I have only wonderful things to say about The Bristal in Armonk. My elderly mom was a resident there until her recent peaceful passing. Amazing staff throughout. One thing that stands out at The Bristal compared to other senior facilities we've used for our parents, is the excellent medical care provided by the Wellness department. Having an on-site nurse all the time was just so reassuring; it also came in handy at times when mom became ill. Senior leadership are available and helpful, and stay on top of all activities, meals, cleanliness, etc. Highly recommended!

We moved my mom to The Bristal in Armonk a year ago. She really didn’t want to leave her home and friends of the past 30 years. Much to her surprise, as well as ours, she enjoyed being at The Bristal from day one. She meet some amazing new friends, found the staff to be attentive and caring. She really enjoyed the food and the ambience. The special events and activities , especially around holidays made The Bristal feel like home.

Great choice

My mother spent her final years at the Bristol in Armonk and made such amazing friends there. She lived alone and didn’t want to admit she was quite lonely. I was always there for her, but having peers around her and proper medical care to monitor her diabetes made a huge difference in her life. At the Bristol in Armonk they hire such caring individuals, from the wellness center to the kitchen. Everyone treated my mother with great respect. My children also loved to visit her there and join in on activities.

High Staff Turnover, Absent Management

Massive staff turnover and a very young executive director with NO EXPERIENCE beyond the fact that her Daddy got her this job. Watch the bills -- they are sneaky and try to charge you for services not rendered and they raise their rates every year. The facility is clean and safe and the food is pretty good. I think these guys are crooks and this facility should be investigated.

Outstanding Commitment

My parents were residents at The Bristal and everyone in the community was incredibly committed to making sure their time at The Bristal was enjoyable. The staff and the senior leadership are highly committed to making sure each resident is cared for, and is also heard in terms of any concerns they have. My Dad's care was complex and I was continually impressed with the time and effort that the staff and senior leaders spent working on finding the best way to meet his needs. I would highly recommend The Bristal to anyone who is looking for an Assisted-Living Facility.

Very Nice Facility

So far everything is working out well for my sister with her move to this community. This is a nice, safe facility, and she is doing well. The staff is good, and taking good care of her. She has only been here for a few weeks, but so far we have no complaints, or problems with this community. It is a very nice facility, and I would recommend it.

Dad is doing well!!

My dad has recently made the move into this community and so far I have no complaints of how things are going for him. The staff are attentive to his needs and I am comfortable with him in there care. He is really enjoying the meals the chef has prepared for him and the dinning experience with the other residents. They have a great activity program with lots of things to keep them busy throughout the day. Overall I am pleased with this place and would recommend it to anyone.

When I visit the staff seem lovely and attentive. Mom seems to like the food and they keep the community clean. They do offer some daily activities to keep the residents active. Mom is in the memory care unit and I would recommend this community.

Bed Bugs

I had a very disappointing experience with this community. I was not impressed with the care they provided my mother with. She ended up getting bed bugs, and I had to move her to another community. I did find one that suited our needs better.

Depressing Atmosphere!!

The Bristal at Armonk was very dark. The nurses all seemed over whelmed and annoyed. The residents were all corralled in a small area during my visit and didn't seem to have many activities which i did not like. The residents also seemed agitated. The overall look was outdated.

Our experience with The Bristal has been a good one, overall. The staff is cooperative and easy to work with, and they've been a big help throughout the whole process. It took a bit for my loved one to get settled in, but now he really seems to be enjoying the place!

Toured for the second time. Residents do not seem happy. New management once again. No stable management staff. Would not recommend visiting.
