Food quality needs improvement.

There are a lot of complaints about the FOOD. That is, the quality and the portions. I have talked to the Food Service Director and the Director about this.. We'll see if things get better...

Better Communication

I picked this community because of the price. They are not consinstent, with communicating what's going on with operations of the retirement home. They are understaffed, and could do better with that.

Tour experience

I was not at all impressed by NewForest Estates. There are separate buildings so if residents need to get to the dining room, activity room, etc. they have to travel outside. They have to keep the doors open because so many people travel with walkers or wheelchairs which we felt was unsafe. The community also just looked very poor and depressing, but the price was high. I would not recommend this community unless you are on a fixed income.

I would recommend this place to an older senior but not an active senior

The people are super nice and I really enjoyed the bible studies. However when it came to the meals they are heavily loaded with carbs and always have the same vegetable's. They could also have better activities - they definitely are catered more towards an older crowd.

Tour of NewForest

We were looking for something more than just a room for assisted living, more like an apartment. The tub in the bathroom was step in and that would not have worked for my loved one. Other than that, nothing special really stuck out to me about NewForest Estates.

Comfortable Place

It's a nice place. They got a new chef, although they didn't replace the sous chef. So the sides aren't the best, but my parents tell me the entrees are delicious. Housekeeping tends to knock on the metal doors with their keys, so see about getting a doorbell if you're loved one is hard of hearing. Also double check some things before you move in, but that would be true of any place. For the most part, the staff have been very good. My loved one has had some falls, and they were very quick to call the lift services to get her back up and make sure she was okay. They provide assistance to the dining room if needed. And housekeeping seems to be very nice.

The room was too far from all of the amenities offered in the community. What was offered per the cost and the care needed just did not match up. The tour was good but the community just did not git the needs of my loved one.
