Happy home that's a great value

My mom has been there a year and loves it! She has something to do all day everyday. Remodeling is underway and really making a difference in the aesthetics of the property. Management is friendly, helpful and welcoming. Highly recommend!

Great place

My husband and I toured The Forum at Town Center this past week. We came away amazed at the variety of activities and all the amenities. My husband thinks the indoor pool and spa is a perfect way for him to keep fit. I love the 24 hour fitness room with all kinds of exercise equipment. There's even a dog park! We loved the variety of rooms to choose from, some with full kitchens plus washer & dryer. Prices are very reasonable. We stayed for lunch and the food was great. The residents are very friendly too. We are planning on moving to the Forum when we are ready to move to a retirement community.

I loved it!

The community was very welcoming. The staff was informative and kind. This was a great experience overall. We were offered to stay for a meal but we did not have time to stay. They have assisted living as well as independent living. We really like that we have the option to age in place.

Fits

It was the only facility that fit my mother's eating style. The Forum at the Town Center only covers (and thus only have to pay for one meal per day. My mom likes to eat out with friends and family so she would not make use of the 3 meals/day offered by other places we visited. That and the location is perfect for her.

The Forum at Town Center

She is in independent living, so no real care. Food is great, but some times they do not have enough servers. I find the staff very friendly and helpful, although you don't see them that much unless you go to the main building. The facility is nice. However, the pool has been out of commission for most of the last year.

Friendly staff

Slow at responding to requests to fix things in unit. Very friendly. Knows everyone by name. Dog friendly. Not good at listening to residents about things that they would like changed.

Great Experience

My experience with my mom went very well. Very grateful for the support and knowledge of the process. I will definitely use the program again I’d needed for any other additional care

I would whole heartedly recommend the forum if the CEO isn't [name removed]

What I like the most about The Forum are the residents are not cliquey. They are friendly and positive. The people who worked there were the same way. Except for [name removed].

Nice place, good staff

Staff is good, caring and the place is clean, homey, not feeling like a hospital. My mom loved the food, activities. Liked how they kept us in the loop on her care. The cost was reasonable. Would use them again.

Friendly, fun atmosphere

[name removed] and the rest of the staff were responsive, supportive, and extremely flexible. Our move in was chaotic for several reasons, and we were able to work with them on every issue we had. Our mom has been greeted by staff and other residents since move-in day, and she has made many new friends quickly. She has been there two months and tells everyone she could not have found a better place to live!

Review for The Forum at Town Center

I have been happy here. The staff are super friendly.Food ranges from good to very good. Always lots of choices and plentiful. I don't partake in activities by choice. But I have recently started exercise classes and love the instructors here. I appreciate the transportation to medical appointments as I don't drive. Also, the location is great as I am in walking distance of stores including a good sized mall. If there is one thing to improve, it would be housekeeping services. They are good as far as they go but it's mostly superficial.

A good community with some areas for improvement.

The apartment is roomy and comfortable. Pets are allowed. Good variety of activities. He likes the pool for exercise. Dad does not like the dining. It is often closed due to shortage of wait staff. He has to go get his meal in a bag and take the food to his room. He says it takes a long time when dining hall is open. He has not like choices on menu much of the time, especially the fact that they seldom serve beef, he feels portions and choices are more geared to women's taste.

Over all a good experience.

Staff was nice however a few staff members would get too involved with my mom and even give her their personal cell number . My mom was having some attitude and mental issues and would tell the staff things that were not accurate and instead of coming to me they would try to help her with personal manors.

Good Facility Needs Cosmetic Refresher

Good place with lots of activities for residents and transportation to and from shopping and appointments. A little patching and paint would make this place be so much more inviting. Facility has pool and fitness center.

Lots of Smiles and New Friends

The staff work well together and care about the residents. The CEO, [name removed], however, does not get along well with either staff or residents. She tries to run the facility like an autocrat, so the residents are forced to take care of each other when the facility could have been involved. There is a very positive atmosphere which prevails. People make positive remarks, smile and greet one another in the hall, and help each other out. The hot tub was useful as a way to reduce pain. The food preparation/organization is excellent.

28 Months and Going Strong

Moved here sight unseen from out of state in December 2021. I learned about it through A Place For Mom. It was a tough adjustment, but my family had worked with the staff to make the move as easy as possible. I am really happy I chose The Forum, due to the quality of the food, the caring staff, and the feeling of community here. The pool was a big plus for me and there are plenty of opportunities to get and stay strong. They go out of their way to provide many opportunities for learning, worship, and fun. After talking to people who moved from other facilities, I am so glad I chose The Forum, as I feel I am getting good value for my money.

A community of friends who play, learns live together

I have lived here for 9 years. The atmosphere is if friendship, learning, experiencing, listening and activity. The food is delicious, the number of activities and excursions is exceptional. If a resident has an idea of something new to do, the staff makes it happen. Spacious rooms and lovely setting.
