The Bristal at Armonk

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.

Overall would recommend!!

The staff is wonderful, they are so sweet with my mother and always talk to her and are so kind!! They have a variety of activities which is nice and really helped my mother break out of her shell and socialize more!!

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 co…

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.
