My Dad loves the Westhill! His apartment is lovely and the care is top-notch. It is a beautiful building and everyone is very friendly. We have been very impressed with everything.
At Cedarview, there can be a lack of professionalism in some areas. If a manager has a "beef" with someone it should be private and not open or addressed in the dining or activities room. I've only been here a short while, and some residents have said the quality of the food has gone down. There's a lot of beef, chicken, and pork, it's processed meat. There's lots to choose from and nothing necessarily wrong with the food. No ones going to go hungry. Sometimes what's on the menu doesn't match what's being served, that's not a big deal with me, but may be to others. There's an ala carte menu on the back of the regular menu, but I have a hard time getting specific sides. I know its there because it comes in daily and it's always there, but they'll tell me they don't have it even if its on the menu. Most times someone else will go and get it for me. If they won't be able to provide those things, then they maybe shouldn't add it on the menu. There's always something going on with the activities. There's not a lot of visitation with the activities, which is to no fault of the community or the activities director. It's more so what the residents are interested in. For example: bingo has high a attendance rate, while some other activities may not be as desired. I'm very happy with the location of my room, I'm happy I'm allowed to have my pet here. I also like that I have easy access to the outside. Cedarview is a beautiful place, but I can't compare it to many places. I have no complaints - there's just some professionalism that needs to be displayed in regards to calling others out in shared spaces.
They were very accommodating. They tried very thing to make my mom happy. They tried to get her involved. It was just so different from living independently. I would highly recommend Lanark.
