I visited 6 or 7 retirement faculties in the Bay Area and chose The Forum for its beautiful 50-acre campus and its easy access to my previous home town of Los Altos Hills. Everything about the Forum met and exceeded my expectations, including: plenty of space to walk my little dog, the friendly residents, the efficient and diligent workers, and two restaurants with delicious food. The only downside is trying to not gain weight while enjoying the easy life here😂!! There are also many offerings of classes, programs with speakers, and even a library, so it is easy to keep busy and engaged without having to go off campus. And to keep fit, there is also fitness room, swimming pool, and of course lots of trails both within The Forum’s campus and at the nearby Rancho San Antonio Park. I highly recommend The Forum !!!!

My Grandmama was one of the first members to move into the community back in 1991 when it first opened. I would frequently visit and enjoy our visits. The experiences at the community were always positive. Among the many positive experiences, what always stood out was the wonderful hospitality provided by the entire team. Consistently we were greeted with a smile and asked if there was anything else that they could help with. It was also good to see the same team members throughout the years. This was an indicated that there was a low turn over rate, which meant the team was treated well. The team knew grandmama's preferences and paid attention to the details. On top the ambience there is the scenic view that this community provides. Grandmama's back drop was Rancho San Antonio mountains. A gorgeous view to watch the sunset and sunrise. This community provided as I said the the beginning a lot of positive experiences.

As a new resident to The Forum, my first experience was with Michelle, who guided a tour through all of the facility and then skillfully and professionally helped during the offer/acceptance/buy and move in processes. This is a first rate senior community and Michelle set the tone with her first-rate organization and helpfulness.

The experience we had while my mother was recovering at the Forum is hard to capture in a few words. My mom was at Forum for a month and three weeks at which time she was cared for by angels. From our entrance into the facility Will helped us with situating mom in the right room. All the nurses that cared for mother, I wish I had all their names, but ones I remember were Francisca Rose just to name a few. Joanne, who was my mother‘s case coordinator was so helpful in all the things that needed to be done to facilitate my mother‘s discharge. The physical therapists were incredible. The occupational therapists were fantastic. Melissa, the infectious disease nurse was so patient and helping us understand what was happening with my mother. The care and the cleanliness of the room of the facility was something that we have never seen before, and my mother has been in other facilities as well. We would highly recommend Forum if anybody ever needs loving caring light hearted people to help for recovery thank you everyone for what you have given us which again I cannot describe in words. sending everyone hugs and more hugs wishing everyone a happy new year because you have made it and happy new year for all of us truly Bahareh And By the way, the food at the Forum was so good that we would often ask for extra Caesar salad or wonderful soup to have while visiting my mom.

My husband and I enjoy living at The Forum at Rancho San Antonio. Each of us has found new friendships and great projects to which we can contribute. Recently, we participated in Earth Day and supported development of a Wishing Tree project where all residents and staff were invited to share their hopes for the future of the Forum in context of a healthy community and planet. These hopes and wishes inform actions and actions create possibilities. The grounds are beautiful. The homes are beautiful. The people are wonderful and the food is terrific. We are happy to call The Forum home and for all the possibilities here !
