Community Reviews
I like the affiliation with the Boston University School of Medicine Alzheimer Disease Center.
reviewed on: 04/28/2014 by Loved OneI find their use of the term Mediterranean diet isn't exactly accurate, it's healthy but not Mediterranean. Maybe modified Mediterranean would be more accurate. We chose them primarily on location and price, but also the friendliness and approach of the executive staff. I also like the affiliation with the Boston University School of Medicine Alzheimer Disease Center.
Armbrook Village - A special place for my mom.
reviewed on: 10/19/2019 by Kathy MurrayI wanted to share how Armbrook Village in Westfield, MA has been the perfect place for my mom. Mom has adjusted beautifully and is so happy at Armbrook. It truly is an amazing place. I can't believe how happy everyone there is from senior residents to all their staff and Dr. May who does patient medical visits in their own apartment. Even employees who come in and hang pictures or set up her TV just love Armbrook. The young staff hustle about the dining room aware of who needs help deciding what to order, who they should offer to have their meat cut for them, etc. Residents approach both myself and my mom inquiring on how she is adjusting and offer suggestions such as "I think she will like exercise class" or just complimenting her sweater, her sneakers or otherwise welcoming her to the community. I have caught myself wondering how all the residents could be so happy - do they screen out grouchy or negative clients? Then I realize it is just that they alleviate the stress of aging and memory loss by providing clients with what they need. They go above and beyond planning activities that will be meaningful, fun and enriching. I was fighting back tears when my Mom said to me "Everyone is so nice here, some people need more than me and some need less, but we are all here getting what we need". As she visited other places, she always looked at residents hoping to feel many people were more at her level of need and she truly finds that at Armbrook.
I liked that everyone was happy, and the warm cozy feeling I got.
reviewed on: 04/24/2014 by Ann SapelliThey are doing a pretty good job. I don't have any complaints, the only things I can come up with would be petty. I like their connection to Boston University. I liked that everyone was happy, and the warm cozy feeling I got. I liked how they seemed genuinely caring.
A warm and happy place to live
reviewed on: 10/19/2019 by Kathy MMy family did a lot of research and a few visits with Mom trying to find the right place for Mom. We really found the perfect place for her when we visited Armbrook Village in Westfield. She has now been there a month and a half and Mom has adjusted beautifully and is so happy at Armbrook. It truly is an amazing place. I can't believe how happy everyone there is from senior residents to all their staff and Dr. May who sees patients in their rooms. Even employees who come in and hang pictures or set up her TV just love Armbrook. The young staff hustle about the dining room aware of who needs help deciding what to order, who they should offer to have their meat cut for them, etc. Residents approach both myself and my Mom inquiring on how she is adjusting and offer suggestions such as "I think she will like exercise class" or just complimenting her sweater, her sneakers or otherwise welcoming her to the community.

As she visited other places, she always looked at residents hoping to feel many people were more at her level of need and she truly finds that at Armbrook. She gets 3 meals a day which not only alleviates the stress of meal prep and shopping, but also provides built-in social opportunity. Mom enjoys the meals and that she can make choices every day. We are so happy she has adjusted so nicely to the community at Armbrook. Come in and visit and you will experience a very happy place with great programming and options for residents.
I would give them a five and a half.
reviewed on: 10/28/2015 by AnonymousI would give them a five and a half. They moved here from their home of fifty years, so it was a big move. When I visited and I asked them the million dollar question, "Did we make the right decision?", they told me yes. That really sealed it, they are happy there.
