We liked this facility. My husband was with me and he was telling me about it, because I'm blind, and he loved it. Their staff was very nice. They were courteous and very informative. They treated us to lunch and it was just delicious. The salad was very fresh. They have arts and crafts, bingo, and I would be able to get the audio book in the library for the visually impaired. They also picked us up to bring us for the tour, which we liked, because we don't have transportation. Everything was just perfect.

My mother has moved into here. It's a great place. It's much more homelike than most of the other facilities (that seemed a lot more institutional), and the people we met there were nice and agreeable to work with. They worked with myself and my mother to get things squared away so she could go in. She had some requirements most assisted living places would not support but we were able to get in, which was essential because she has such limited mobility. She's not a very demanding patient. She feeds herself and does all the other activities of daily living, she just needed help.
Her room is like a little efficiency apartment. It's got good windows and a place for furniture. The people are very nice. The food is OK. It's semi-institutional just by the nature of the place. They're providing food, not only in assisted living but also in independent living. There are quite a few folks they have to cook for and it's not terrible. It's better than some places that I've seen. My mother said the food is good.
They have a common room, which is kind of a large living room setup. It's a lot more homey looking. There are a couple of TVs there, and they have some card tables and stuff in a very big living room situation. They usually have activities with making decorations for their rooms and learning how to do crafts and whatnot. There hasn't been a lot of that just because of this COVID stuff. The surrounding is very pleasant. It's much better than anywhere else I saw.

My mother has been there since Jan. 21’. The residence is nice and clean. The food is average and the employees are very nice.
They always have something going on for the residence which is nice.

We visited here. They did a good job in their presentation. It's an older community, but it's been refurbished. The person who gave us the information was very capable. I don't have any recommendations at all. We didn't get into a great detail about the amenities because my mom is relatively sedentary.

I visited here. It was a pretty nice place, the people were accommodating, and they had easy access. That's the place I originally picked for my father, but he didn't want to move. They were willing to work with our financials. The rooms were nice, they had a little kitchenette in them, the staff was very nice, and willing to help out with everything they could. They had a salon and a library.

I often suggest Newforest Assisted Living to my friends with aged parents. The staff and facilities are absolutely wonderful. I have not regretted moving my father here not for one minute! Blessings to all who work here <3

I am impressed with Newforest because of the cost and location. The staff is every nice. The rooms are large, clean, and spacious. The food is good. They have activities like day trips, card games, water aerobics, and exercise programs. I will recommend it to others.

I have lived here in Assisted Living for almost 1 year now. I love that it is a small intimate home with Great staff. We have our days filled with optional activities. Our staff has been here longer than me. I never realized how difficult life had become. My decision to move was one of the best decisions I made in 2015.

We choose this facility for my mom because she likes it. The staff seems to be great. My mom likes the room, and she's really happy to be there. They have all sorts of activities, and my mom is always into something. The staff is always there to help out. The food seems to be great, and the dining room is very clean.

I visited here. I thought they were very friendly. It was a very nice facility, and they kind of met my mom's needs. The rooms were spacious. We liked it. They had their own bathroom and kitchen. The grounds were very nice and open. They had lots of activities. They could go on and play games. They had bingo, exercise, and different things that you could do. It was in a nice neighborhood and was accessible to a hospital.

My father was a resident here for almost 3 years due to Dementia/Alzheimer's. Throughout his very long stay the staff was professional, helpful, and truly cared for his well being. He had the same care givers for the entire time he was there and they knew him and took care of the many problems that he had. But most importantly, I trusted their judgment on what he needed. Especially at the end when they worked with hospice to ease his passing. Choosing a facility for a loved one is hard. The quality and location of the facility is important but even more important is the quality of the care given and the care given by the New Forest staff was excellent.

My mother was at this facility. and it was a very nice place. They had separate apartments and they also served food. I was not able to try the food but my mom said it was good. They had a lot of activities both spontaneous and scheduled. She was completely satisfied there although it was far from the area that she wanted. I also liked everything about it.
