Not a good experience

The communication with the staff was not good. I did not have a lot of confidence in them dispensing medicine. They seemed confused about the medicine. Overall it was not a good experience. They did everything to get us to move in and nothing once we moved in. The internet was down for 2 weeks so no television.

He is at The Forum

My dad is very happy there. We are all happy with the cost as compared to his standard of living there. I recently visited my dad and all the staff and employees were friendly and helpful. My dad is paying $[fee removed]/month, and his same living situation would be $[fee removed]k/month here in LA.

Would Recommend.

The forum is a great place for seniors who do not need a lot of support. Seniors have to be relatively independent to be successful in this community. The people are very nice and the facilities are also really nice. There is not much of a difference in the level of care as your senior ages that is available. They are a great facility. My dad's illness just progressed faster than we anticipated.

Friendly and beautiful community

The people were so accommodating & nice. The sales person we dealt with worked around our schedules for tour of facilities & signing of documents. Also the residents were so happy there & shared their opinions. They allowed us to eat a free meal in the dining room which was great since food was an issue at my mom's last place. They also offered some great discounts to help us with costs of the transition. The best value for the money!

Great staff, beautiful grounds, substandard apartments.

The grounds are beautiful and the staff is very friendly and kind. My biggest problem was with the apartment. It was small and dark and depressing, and had problems with infestation of bugs, specifically cockroaches..I told management and they said it would be taken of, but wasn't. As a retired chef, the tiny kitchen was frustrating and difficult to work in The new cheap flooring leaked glue and always felt wet, which was unpleasant. Several parcels had been delivered to the front desk, which disappeared. Many activities were offered, which was nice. In general, the demographics were a little too old for me. Also, only 3 washers and dryers to accommodate the entire building made doing laundry challenging. As an insomniac , I would use the laundry at 1 or 2 am because there were so many people needing the facility during the day and evening.

Overall nice community

I would rate 4 for all except food as 5. It was good. Activities could be more varied. Admin as 3 could be more responsive to resident requests. Yes, we would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

I would not recommend nor warn against The Forum.

The place is significantly run down, and there is little evidence they are investing in improvements. It doesn't cost much to paint, and many of the common areas in residence buildings are in serious need of updates and at a minimum repainting. The meal program has been a bright spot in our experience.

Great place fire seniors!

Great place to live. The grounds are beautiful. Good location. Food is excellent. There are ducks. The staff is friendly and helpful. Maintenance is responsive. The only downside is it’s an older facility so there are sometimes maintenance issues.

Review for The Forum at the Woodlands

I do think they have room for some improvements in some areas. We picked them because of the price and closeness to me.

the Forum

My husband and I have lived in a Cottage at The Forum for 5 years and love our accommodation, food and activities but, we are exceptionally pleased with the Director and Staff. They are all very caring and supportive no matter what your concerns may be. If you’re having to look for that final home, it’s my opinion you couldn’t do better than The Forum.
