“Regular nursing homes are too dangerous for dementia patients. Fortunately, there is James L West Center for Dementia Care. The care provided for our father was exceptional. Their patient to caregiver ratio is around 4-1 while your typical nursing home is going to be around 18-1 or even as high as 24-1. There’s no way a regular nurse by home can provide superior care for your loved one with such i…”

★★★★★Shirley Martin · 2026-02-23 · via Google

“We moved my dad here after he spent time at 2 other dementia care centers. James L West has been a breath of fresh air! I didn’t even know to expect some of the wonderful ways they take care of dad! He’s very happy here, has friends and fun activities. They take good care of him and involve the family in his care. It is expensive but also so much better than our other experiences at the other memo…”

★★★★★Pris Walker · 2026-02-23 · via Google

“The staff at James L West are wonderful. They're first class in knowledge, compassion and extremely hard work. The residents are well taken care of and are fond of their caregivers. A plus with the facility is that they have a contract with the Veterans Administration; so that the resident veterans are fully taken care of, as well.”
