Experience with Forest Trace Senior Living

Our biggest problem with Forest Trace is the memory care is always understaffed at mealtime, and they do not provide enough for the patients to drink. There are very few activities that aren't religion-based or totally lame. Some suggestions- more bingo/game sessions, exercise classes, walking outdoors- especially for memory care patients who are capable, fix up the patio area of memory care with plants, comfortable furniture and tables, shade, fountain or water feature. Offer full-size or at least 6 oz. 3 oz. Of…

Amazing Staff

Our mother has been living at Forest Trace for a few years now and the Director at the time made us believe that we never had to worry about anything and his door was always opened if we ever needed anything.

She stands on business and keeps her word! From the front desk supervisor who always greets you with a smile as you come in, the sales reps who get yo…

I visited this facility

I went to Forest Trace Senior Living. I like everything about it. I like the amenities, the rooms, the food, and the staff. The facility itself was nice. I saw the kitchen, the dining room, and the activity room. The staff was nice, too.

Look elsewhere

Overall, this turned out to be a very sad place to live. I would recommend anybody looking into Forest Trace for a loved one to look elsewhere.
