"Basic Needs Met, But Services Lack Quality"
My dad's place is okay for someone with simple needs. The upkeep isn't great and can be pretty careless. The food and the way they serve it are awful, my dad says, and the cleaning could be a lot better. He does like having the elevator close by his room. Places like this really should have bigger bathrooms for people in wheelchairs.

"Disappointing Decline in Quality at Assisted Living Facility"
When my father-in-law first moved in, everything was great. I'd rate it all a 5. But then, new owners took over, and everything plummeted to a 1 or 2. He had to move out.

"Food quality and portions need improvement, spoke with management."
There's a bunch of complaints about the FOOD. Like, how good it tastes and how much they give us. I told the Food Service boss and the big boss about it. Let's wait and see if they fix it...

"Inconsistent Communication and Understaffing at Assisted Living Facility"
I chose this place because it was affordable. They're not good at keeping us informed about what's happening. They don't have enough staff, and they could improve in that area.

"Not Recommended for Fixed Incomes"
I didn't like New Forest Estates at all. The separate buildings mean residents have to go outside to reach the dining room or activity room. Keeping the doors open for walkers and wheelchairs felt unsafe. The community looked poor and depressing, despite the high price. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're on a fixed income.

"Assisted Living Review: Not Quite Apartment-Like"
We wanted something more than just a room for living with help, more like an apartment. The bathtub in the bathroom required stepping in, which wouldn't have worked for my loved one. Other than that, nothing special really stood out to me about NewForest Estates.
