The tour I had at ComfortCare Homes - West was good and very thorough. We were able to walk pretty much everywhere. We saw an occupied room, but there was no one there and it was perfectly OK to go in and just get a feel for what the facility looked like. Certainly, it was a leisurely tour. We didn't feel like we were rushed. We could ask questions as we went along. I thought it was a very thorough look at what life might be like in that facility. The facility itself was great and very new. As the presenter described, it's built from the ground up, as opposed to most places which they purchase and renovate. It was built to their specifications. It was a nice facility to kind of fit their style of service and care to the elderly population. It was very eye opening and revealing to us as far as what's available. I saw more like studios, and there's basically a room for a bed, a dresser, and a chair. It's not large certainly. I think they encourage the people there to be out in the living areas and not necessarily in their rooms. There's a half bath that's attached to each room, no shower or anything, just basic stuff. I think safety is paramount for the folks there. That's the idea of the design. They described several things every day that they do, and it's not like on a set schedule. They described it as kind of a free flowing sort of a deal. They would encourage activity, and then if people are interested, they do it. If not, they postpone it. It's very engaging, but not necessarily a structure per se that the people perhaps wouldn't appreciate. It was a nice feature. It's kind of a group get together, "Hey, let's play a game" or "Hey, let's do this." It's not, "Come at 2:00 because we're gonna do this right now." It wasn't like that at all. That's kind of how they sold it.

My parents moved into ComfortCare Homes - WEST yesterday. They only have 12 people and it's set up like a home with a living area.

My parents moved into ComfortCare Homes - WEST yesterday. They only have 12 people and it's set up like a home with a living area. The kitchen's in the middle, and they're both in single rooms right across from each other. It is just really well run and it's three minutes from my house, so that makes a difference too. The staff has been wonderful, kind, and good. Everything went great yesterday. I couldn't say enough about them. They're very good. They have a beautiful courtyard walking path. I know they do activities, and they take them out occasionally. They have a library, a game room, and a beauty salon. They have a good variety of menus.
