Memory Care
My sister has lived at Forest Hills in the Health Care Center for a while. Before the pandemic, they had wonderful activities as well as great nursing care. In the pandemic they have done an incredible job to keep everyone safe, to figure out ways to have safe activities and/or virtual or safe visitation zones (following CDC guidelines). The staff is working under challenging circumstances and they continue to be kind, patient and deliver high quality care. We are so very grateful my sister can live in such a great facility.
I enjoy dining in our Fireside Dining Room, The Bistro and The Pub. The food is well prepared, presented in an attractive fashion, and is exceptional. The atmospheres of the venues are unique. I particularly enjoy the specials which are offered each night. The variety of the Seafood/Fish and Chef’s Special is remarkable. Overall, it is a pleasure to enjoy good food with good company.
The staff at Aarondale community is great, we are very happy with the care services our loved one as been receiving. They have done an amazing job with containing COVID. Its not a very large community, and for a good part of the spring and into the summer the residents had to stay in their rooms, as well as eat in their rooms instead of in the formal dining area. During this time the staff members would come around to engaged with the residents since they had to cancel most of the activities. However the residents are now allowed out of their rooms and can social distance. What impressed us the most was the staff and how the facility has a very comfortable and homey feeling to it.
