The Lorelton

Living at the Lorelton is as close to "living at home" as you will find. The food is good, you have a large selection of room types to choose from. Some apartments have washer/dryers and some have full kitchens. The employees are caring. Just what you want.

My mother lived here for several years until she required more intensive nursing support. I think it is safe to say that this was for her the best assisted living facility she ever encountered. The staff made all the difference, all of whom were caring and engaged -- and their longevity was evidence that the environment was good for them, too. The one bedroom apartment my mother had was large and bright, a complete change from the cramped circumstances she had at two other similar facilities. As a former art teacher, I knew she was sold when she found out the place is a converted school -- and when she saw the great art room there!

After living in the home in Westover Hills that her father built for the past 43 years, our mother referred to The Lorelton as “my home” for the past 2-3 years until her recent death at age 99. With large windows, lots of light and her own furnishings, it really did feel like home for her. The staff there were consistently helpful, friendly and welcoming during her entire stay. Mom enjoyed being able to sit outside in the enclosed courtyard to get some fresh air among flowers in a well tended garden. She particularly liked the long halls (it is a converted school) so that she could use her walker and get exercise safely, as well as during her regular physical therapy sessions which she also enjoyed. I was always impressed by the cleanliness of the facility and friendliness of both staff and residents. During this past summer, after two strokes, the staff went above and beyond to not only be supportive of her, but also of the rest of our family. Though we miss her already, we feel comforted that she spent her final years being well cared for by The Lorelton staff, as well as being loved by her family.
