Monticello West

Monticello West had five or six activities a day every day except Sunday. Overall, it is a nice place.

They provided us a solution when no else could

Too often, they served cold meals when hot meals were the expectation. Especially at dinner. The apartment size and location of the community were fine.

Would recommend as a good facility

One of the few places that offers assisted living type B for my brother-in-law and could admit my sister for independent living. Willingness to work with them as a couple was appreciated. Parking is often not available, sometimes having to park 2 blocks away.

Monticello West review

My friend's experience has been very positive. I just can't say enough good things about the staff ! They have all been incredibly helpful and kind. One of the reasons I picked Monticello West was because of the longevity of the staff. I think the average length was 12 years and above. I see the people at work - when no one else is there and their care and compassion are overwhelming.

Great Family Experience

Everyone is very friendly and seems to do well doing their jobs and taking care of the residents. I didn't see a lot of staff turnover either, which is good.

Monticello West review

Peace of mind but they can improve on communication with the family. We liked that he wasn't alone and his Nurse Willis was extremely kind and [name removed] thought of him as a friend.
