Happy

We are very happy with Forest View. Staff is very friendly and caring. My dad is a super picky eater, but they are willing to work with us to make my Dad happy. They do need to hire more staff, especially on afternoons and Weekends.

Worst place you could put your love one.

When I showed up to visit, my mom, staff told me she was taken to the hospital after a fall. But they refused to tell me where she was taken or anything about her current status. I asked to speak to the manager and she threatened to call the police if I did not leave the building!!! She refused to tell me where my mom was too!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! My brother put her in this disgusting place without my knowledge, and even after I provided Forestview with a court order showing I was entitled to know about my mom's healthcare and obviously her whereabouts they still refused to comply. Her room was disgustingly dirty. We found all kinds of debris on the sink in the bathroom on the floors on the walls. Her bedding and her clothes were soiled when we came to visit her. We had to tell the staff they needed to clean her up on more than one occasion, and to clean her room up on every occasion. She fell multiple times at this facility and their solution was to put her in a wheelchair bound roo

Residents leave and nobody notices

A family member got out, and got hurt the facility had no clue he was gone until the family called from the hospital hours later. They have no compassion for the people who reside there. Not enough activities for them. Facility is so cheap they get a tiny candy bar if they are lucky at bingo. Residents are neglected all they care about is putting on a show to look like all is well. Once you complain there is the management arguing with you blaming you, lie to you whatever makes them feel like they are right. Worst place downriver. I should of called around to other facilities and ask about this place no one will recommend it I found that out too late. If you are looking for cheap that's what you get here they have the lowest prices because that's the only way to trap people to move in.

Thank me later

You think you can't get through on the phones, imagine going there after hours waiting a long period of time to get buzzed in,and you got residents pushing and pulling on the doors to try to let you in. Very Scary.

Do Not Consider This Facility

I have a loved one in this facility, but plan to move them soon. The care is terrible! It is not kept clean. The meals or HORRIBLE - They mostly get sandwiches. The food is worse than the worst hospital food you have ever received. The staff is not knowledgeable at all. They don't have an interest in the residents and don't attempt to get them involved in activities. Honestly, keep looking for a different facility and spend your money more wisely.

Keep looking

Went to visit a family member she is in very sound mind or I would worry .I heard a resident in another room screaming .Short staff indeed bells go off for long periods of time on days when I'm there.They raised the rent and for what?The care isn't any better it's at it's all time worse since my family member has been there.Before I left I asked if they could put a clean pillow case on a pillow ,I went to visit the following week and the same pillow case was on the pillow.

Terrible Place

New Managemebt is horrible, only in it for the money, all the pleasant, valuable staff is gone. New management doubled the rent on residents and families recently. No nurse in building, Unskilled staff now in nursing office, food service is horrible, staff come and go and dislike their jobs. This is the truth, families use caution nicer places everywhere . The owner is uncompassionate and rude towards families and staff. Building is old and outdated. Take a tour it speaks for itself. Check surrounding prices on rent much lower.

My Amazing Experience!!!

Brownstown Forest View Has great , friendly staff. The management team Is very responsive, Friendly and always have answered any question i have had . The staff actually CARES and thats something you can not train ! My Dad had a great experience here at Brownstown during the last month of his life and would not of had it any other way! While reading some of these false reviews, I feel its sad how people can voice such harsh opinions because there having personal issues in there life and venting on Brownstown. I assure you residents at Brownstown are Happy and they inhance the quality of life for your loved ones. They do activities , outings now that its getting warmer. The feed back I got from residents was that this is there home and love it! Everyone is family around Brownstown ! Before taking others opinions please stop in there and just feel the positive energy from the time you walk in the door and possibly talk to a resident thats living there. I guarantee that resident will give you positive feed back!!! Also the rates are fantastic compared to most assisted living along with the care being priceless!

Hire anyone

They will hire anyone, lost the best staff last year, now very unskilled staff in Nursing office, should not be able to put untrained, people in these positions. Also new staff every week. Hardly any residents left in this sad place.

Disappointed!

I've got to be honest. My mom was set to have dad be here, interview and tour completed. Assessment completed next day with them telling mom they'll call back with a cost and care package. Mom never received a call back...after waiting three days she finally called them, of course she hears "I was meaning to call you" only to be told they couldn't take dad. No explanation was given, nor did they have the courtesy to call her as they said they would. So I have to question, is this the relationship they have with patients and their families? Needless to say, we won't be recommending this place anytime soon!

The building looks very ran down, The person giving tour could not even answer any of my questions, prices very high reminded me of a nursing home, very small facility.
