“A culture of caring”


Forestdale Park has successfully created a culture of caring amongst its staff.  They are always pleasant, upbeat and it is quite obvious they care deeply about the individuals who reside there.   Our Mom is quite content at Forestdale Park. They are all nice here! We are very pleased with the care and attention our Mom receives.

“My siblings and I are so pleased”


I wanted to say thank you for being open with the families of residents. I have friends whose parents are in different facilities of varying kinds and that is not the case with them.

I know this is a very difficult time in so many ways and I commend you and all your staff for the hard work and commitment to the well-being of residents (and staff). My siblings and I are so pleased with the facility and the work that everyone does. God bless each and every one of you.

“Our questions and requests are always responded to”


We are so grateful for the care and attention Phil’s brother Victor is receiving with your facility and program. Gratitude hardly expresses the relief and joy we feel. He has grown better physically and seems peaceful and content. The reception staff is so pleasant and helpful. Our questions and requests are always responded to – ALWAYS.

There is such a sense of joy and fun from your programs. We have seen first hand the excellent food. The facility is very clean, well maintained in a lovely setting.

Your Facility and programs are indeed LIFE-GIVING!

“This place has been a blessing”


Too much information to discuss here but talk to the director and support staff. Go see the facility, it’s beautiful. Talk to residents and families as well.Tour and compare other facilities. Do research around assisted livings and memory care units. When you do your own research and understand the industry and what is involved you will understand why this place is different. They hold themselves to higher standards. That is what makes this place special. The level of care, empathy, love and compassion made it the right choice for our family.  This place has been a blessing for what is the most difficult decision for many families. I would highly recommend their care for your loved one.

“Happiness & quality of life”


Forestdale Park was a wonderful place for my Mom to live. She had great care and attention. Living there allowed her to be independent, which allowed the family to focus on her happiness and quality of life.

“The food they serve is delicious”


“My grandmother is a resident here and loves living at Forestdale. Every time I visit they have a different form of entertainment scheduled for the day. I have had lunch with my grandmother 3 times and the food they serve is delicious and on par with a fine dining restaurant.”

“My mother sings the praises of the staff to everyone she talks to”


A year and a half ago, I began my search for an assisted living facility for my mom.  I toured several different facilities, but none of them felt good enough for my mom.  When I toured Forestdale, I knew almost immediately that this place had what I was looking for.  I wanted a place that was clean, well maintained and nurturing.  I wanted staff caring for my mom who would see her as a person of value, despite her aging body and mind.  I wanted staff who would be receptive and open to me reaching out to them when my mother needed something. I found all these things at Forestdale Park Senior Living.   Forestdale hires exceptional people to work for them.  My mother did not want to leave her home but she knew she needed to.  The staff assured me that she would adjust…that she would gain weight…that she would participate in activities…and that she would flourish…and they were 100% right!  My mother sings the praises of the staff to everyone she talks to.  My siblings and I all agree choosing Forestdale was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made.  We highly recommend Forestdale Park Senior Living.
