Homa Saneinejad2024-03-20 The Forestview residence has very friendly invirement. The staff are very caring and resident feel like a family member. The location and nature around the building make the resident vey peaceful. Rami Aizic2024-03-06 Forestview Retirement Residence has been excellent from the very first phone call! My elderly dad fell and needed temporary care, which Forestview offered. A respite suite was immediately set up for him, and we were welcomed by name by the staff as we walked through the doors. The accommodations are clean and spacious. The food, offered both in the dining room and in my dad's room, is delicious. The extra care provided for my dad is gentle, sensitive and personal. He feels very cared for, which makes us, his adult kids, feel relieved that he is attended to respectfully. From the General Manager all the way down to the helpers, including social workers, dining room attendants, maintenance and all other administrators, we continue to be treated with the utmost professionalism and courtesy. I am SO GRATEFUL to have found Forestview Retirement, and highly recommend it to anyone who needs extra care for their elderly loved ones. Rami Aizic Alya Da Silva2024-03-05 My late husband and I chose Forestview as we thought this is the best one after visiting a lot of places. Living here for 5 years now, I can say that Forestview is a nice and a friendly environment. The view of the grounds is beautiful, quiet, well paved and with lots of beautiful birds on the trees. The staff are very approachable, personable and if they're new, they always take the time to know us by name. There's lots of activities to promote our brain health and to really help preserve both our physical and cognitive abilities. Susan Nash2023-04-09 Forestview is very honest about their pricing, and very prompt and frequent with their communication. My mom lived on the assisted living floor for a short time before she died. Apart from one person working the front desk, everyone (at least 2 dozen staff) I encountered working there was friendly, caring, kind, loving and approachable. My mom needed a private PSW to stay with her that we hired from outside Forestview. There were 5 different PSWs that we brought in to help my mom, and every single one of them said Forestview was the nicest home they had ever worked in. The nurses (especially Marites) and PSWs (especially Bibiana), and dining staff at Forestview are extremely hard working and they treat the residents like they are their own family. The sales team and management team are honest and helpful. If they don't know the answer to a question, they find out for you. Parking is easy and free. The residence is secure and safe. Donna-Marie Chambers2022-06-28 Forestview Retirement Home at Bathurst and Finch is a nice place. There is some very nice residents there. Most of the staff is friendly. What i hear alot of complaining about is food choices..."everything is chicken everyday". " We don't get steak; good fish; too much french fries; fish & chip all day; no good vegetables; bananas alway too ripe; desert not good choices; breakfast served at lunch too; breakfast don't have hot meals like porridge, pancakes sausage, omelet; FOOD MENU ALWAYS THE SAME FOR MONTHS;" "Not much creative activity that everyone can enjoy". When love one's are at any retirement home or long-term care, visit them regularly and call to check on them. You will find most residents need extra support from the outside. Jordan Dicker2021-04-08 My grandparents are residents of this retirement home and they are pleased with their experience. Linda the general manager has also been incredibly accommodating. I would highly recommend this home.Load more
