reviewed on: 10/05/2016 by AnonymousMy loved one seems to be enjoying they meals they are providing as well as the desserts. The staff have been really motivating to my sister on making sure she gets involved with the different activities throughout the day. I am also very pleased with how well her room and bathroom is kept clean.
Review of New Forest Estates
reviewed on: 09/26/2020 by Amy FordBeautiful, clean facility. Staff are first class. Friendly, helpful, caring. [name removed] is amazing. Prompt and helpful. Thank you!
Excellent independent living facility for a reasonable price.
reviewed on: 02/20/2014 by C RogersNewForest has an excellent on-site director and Pacifica, the corp. owner, is constantly upgrading and repairing the facility. There is good attention to safety and awareness of resident's missing meals. Services are limited as this is an independent living facility. Meals are generally very good and there are options of delivery or pick up. The services our parents have needed most that aren't available are for someone to do laundry and for transportation to doctor/hospital after regular hours and on weekends. It is truly independent living but has many residents with outside care giver's. the service We need most is an on site services coordinator, social worker, counselor or someone familiar with services to the elderly living on just Social Security and heavily subsidized by children! We have difficulty getting help with information about services and additional help with memory care needs. NewForest is excellent as long as the family is able to stay involved on a regular basis.
