Westbrook Senior Living in Streamwood, IL
5.0

My mother has been at Westbrook for just shy of one year. It has been a wonderful experience from the very start. The entire staff has been incredible. They do a great job in communicating with me and everyone there really cares about the residents health and well being. My mother has transitioned from the assisted living section to the memory care section. The staff really helped us make the decision to move my mother to memory care. We couldn’t have hoped for a better outcome. My mother is happier and we feel more secure with this level of care. Special mention should be made of [name removed]. He has been fantastic. He took the time to really get to know my mom. He really cares about her and he communicates so well with us. We don’t know what we’d do without him. On a separate note, Westbrook made some tough, but wise, decisions during the pandemic. They are to be commended by continually looking out for the welfare of their residents and employees.
