Westlake Woods by New Perspective Senior Living is full of lies! They do not have a memory care unit in this facility & the staff is not trained in memory care! In fact, the staff is not trained at all and the only requirement to be employed is to have a pulse! Most of the staff is only there for a paycheck and not because they actually care about working as a caregiver in an Assisted living facility! Drug testing is not required, and background checks are not completed before hiring! You would think, that since these people are going to be ((or supposedly) taking care of some of the most vulnerable among us, we would want the right people taking care of them! As for the "Positive" reviews, if you notice they are all done within days & hours of each other, so if that is not a HUGE RED FLAG, that they are trying to BOOST their ratings! Stay away!

At one time, Westlake Woods Assisted Living Center was the premier facility in Erie, Pa, but that reputation is long gone. We had my mother in-law there for several years & then a few years ago New Perspective purchased it from Life Services & it was a steady decline spiraling downward! We had a camera in her room & the aid actually pulled the covers over her head when putting her to bed. We were wondering why she was always scared & that was why, not to mention that the aids were always rough with her. We moved her to Manchester Assisted Living & would advise anyone to stay away from any New Perspective owned facility, I would venture to say, that the county home provides better care!
