My mother recently moved to an independent living apartment at The Westbury in Columbia, MO. From the very first visit through move-in and getting her settled, it has exceeded our expectations. The staff genuinely care about the residents and love what they do. The amenities are great, including the food, social activities, maintenance, grounds and services. The residents are very welcoming and positive about their experiences living there. We couldn’t be more pleased. It is opening up a new chapter for my mom, and providing supports that are really valuable at this time of her life. Thank you to everyone at Westbury.

This place is a sham!! The accommodations are sub par. The food is inedible. The “activities” are laughable.

Since Sihreta Jones stepped in as Director of Wellness at The Westbury we’ve seen such a big difference. The care our parents are getting in the assisted living facility has really improved — it feels like everything runs more smoothly and thoughtfully now. Sihreta is super hands-on, pays attention to the little things, and really seems to care. She’s thorough, observant, and always on top of what’s going on. You can tell she sets a high standard and genuinely wants the best for the residents. It’s such a relief knowing she’s there and looking out for our parents. We’re so thankful for the impact she’s made.
