Assisted Living
Your own front door, and help down the hall.
Assisted living at Westbrook Park is about making everyday life easier — not taking it over. Our team helps with the parts of the day that have gotten harder, so you can spend your time on the parts you enjoy.
Care is built around each resident, and it changes as their needs do.
Is it the right fit?
What assisted living looks like here.
Assisted living is for people who are still living their own lives, but who could use a hand with a few parts of the day — bathing, dressing, keeping track of medications, getting to and from meals.
Residents have their own apartment, their own furniture and their own routine. What changes is that help is close by at any hour, and someone is always looking out for them.
How we help
Care, wellness, and everything in between.
Support here is hands-on where it needs to be and invisible where it doesn’t.
Personal care
Help with bathing, dressing, grooming and getting around — offered discreetly, and only to the level each person actually wants.
Health and wellness
Medication management, regular wellness checks and daily exercise, with our team coordinating alongside your own doctors rather than replacing them.
Everyday services
Housekeeping, laundry, maintenance, scheduled transportation and a concierge at the front desk, so nobody spends their week on chores.
A home of your own
A private apartment with its own bathroom, good natural light, and room for the furniture and photographs you already have.
Day to day, we can help with
- Bathing and personal care
- Dressing and grooming
- Medication management
- Getting to and from meals
- Moving around the community
- Coordinating with your own doctors
Personalized care
A plan built around one person.
No two residents need the same things, so nobody is handed a standard package. Before a move-in we sit down with the resident, the family and their doctor, and work out what help is genuinely needed.
That becomes a written plan the whole team works from, and we revisit it as things change — so the care keeps pace instead of lagging behind.
- 01
We sit down together
A conversation and a health assessment, with family and physicians involved from the start.
- 02
We write it down
A care plan setting out exactly what help is needed, when, and from whom.
- 03
We revisit it
Care needs rarely stay the same, so we review the plan whenever they change. The help a resident gets is the help they need now, not what they needed six months ago.
- 04
They move in
Their own furniture, their own photographs on the wall, and a first day that is about settling in rather than paperwork.
Care is set by level. Ask us how the levels work and we’ll walk you through it plainly.

Life here
There’s always something on.
Three meals a day in the dining room, a bistro for the hours in between, and a calendar of exercise, games, outings and visitors that changes every month.
Assisted living residents follow the main community calendar. It’s printed monthly and posted by the dining room — and this month’s is here to read before you visit.
Questions
Questions families ask us.
If yours isn’t here, call us on (714) 775-6775. We’d rather answer it than have you guess.
How is assisted living different from a nursing home?
Assisted living is for people who need help with parts of the day, not round-the-clock medical care. Residents have their own apartment and come and go as they like. A skilled nursing facility provides constant nursing and therapy — a different level of care altogether.
How do we know when it’s time?
There is rarely one moment. It’s usually a build-up: meals being skipped, medications getting muddled, a fall, or simply too many hours alone. If daily life has started to feel like a struggle, it’s worth a conversation — and we’re happy to have it even if the answer is not yet.
What does it cost, and does Medicare cover it?
The cost depends on the apartment and the level of care. Medicare does not generally pay for assisted living, so most families use savings, the sale of a home, or long-term care insurance. Call us and we’ll go through the numbers honestly rather than making you ask twice.
Can we bring our own furniture?
Please do. Residents are encouraged to bring their own furniture, photographs and the things that make a room feel like theirs. It is the fastest way for a new apartment to start feeling like home.
Can couples live together?
Yes. We have one and two-bedroom apartments, and couples are welcome to share — including when only one of them needs care.
Does a resident need a car?
No. We run scheduled transportation for appointments, shopping and outings. Residents who still drive are usually welcome to keep their car, and there is parking on site.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, we’re pet friendly. There are some size and breed limits, so tell us about your pet and we’ll let you know.
What happens if more care is needed later?
Care levels are adjusted as needs change. And because memory care is on the same site, a move to more support doesn’t have to mean leaving the building, the staff or the people you have gotten to know.
