Recently, me and my grandmother toured the facility, and we were VERY impressed with the community! The staff were very friendly and personable, and treated my grandmother as family. The rooms were very spacious and cozy, our dining experience was phenomenal, and there was an abundance of activities for the residents. We are planning on moving her in as soon as we can. Thank you for the great experience!

Many thanks to the entire staff but especially to the maintenance crew for their assistance with hand trucks, Dollies, and garbage bins as we moved our Father/Grandfather's belongings from his apartment. During an already difficult time for us, they stepped up with tireless help so that we could efficiently take care of our task at hand.

Kudos to the culinary staff for their above-and-beyond preparation for the winter storm this past weekend! Staff gave up time with families to be onsite so that all of the residents had seamless support.

I accompanied my parents on their tour of Forwood Manor. Brian Abraham provided an informative yet not overwhelming experience. It was clearly evident that he has established a rapport with many staff and residents. The facility was clean and furnished beautifully. Forwood Manor has created a very “homey” and positive environment. Residents made it a point to welcome us and tell us how much they enjoyed their experiences there.

Big shout out to the staff at Forwood Manor! Only 5 days after my Mom and her partner moved to Independent Living she had a medical emergency and spent a few days in the hospital. Her partner is disabled and needed care. The Forwood team sprang into action. Brian, Tia, Pat, Jubian worked together to arrange for a quick transfer to assisted living until my Mom recovers. Their extra efforts helped our family navigate through a very difficult and stressful time. I would like to add that the facility is well maintained with lovely common areas, always clean and inviting. The apartments are the best we saw after touring many retirement communities. The entire staff are caring and responsive. I expect in another 20 years I too will call Forwood Manor my home!
