Decreased quality in regards to service and living quarters
Forest Hills has been bought out by another company and many people have moved out for various reasons. A big complaint is the food and they said they needed to cut back. They have also cut back on workers and changed nursing. My mother in law also wants to move and we are not willing to start from the beginning again. Most of the people moved to the to the place in Mt Washington, where she was originally denied, because she need more care.

Highly recommend!
I would give Forest Commons a 5 in all categories. I am very particular, and my tour went very well and all questions I had were answered. From there forward, they made everything easy and my Mother is very happy there. They have fun activities such as Bingo, Movie night in the home theater (including popcorn) people that come in and play music and sing. Fun field trips are also made. A doctor comes once a week and a nurse is present 24/7. Transportation is also provided for personal doctor appointments. Medications can be given by a nurse if needed. This facility is extremely clean. Your laundry is done for you, once a week . Linens are changed and your room is cleaned over per week. Physical Therapy is also-present in the facility if needed. They also have a nice library, arts and crafts and puzzles. My thought was when I began this journey, I would not place my mother-in-law in a place I would not live in myself.

Our families experience
We gave Forest Hills overall a 3 because they are short staffed, but we do understand it is like that everywhere. The communication with the director [name removed] has been great, we have even seen her a few times step into the kitchen and help out. The dining staff is extremely short - sometimes the residents have to wait long periods just to get into the cafeteria, but they are actively working on the issue. The communication with the nursing team is great, anytime we call with questions or concerns they are right there to answer, and if not we get a call back within 15-20 minutes. They do have a very good physical therapist and speech therapist so the medical side of things has been awesome and overall we are happy with Forest Hills.

Forest Hills Commons review
Forest Hills community is a lovely place, they keep the facility spotless. It is nicely decorated without being overbearing. The residents really seem to enjoy life here, and we are constantly getting new residents all the time. The staff is vey caring and there is a good relationship between the staff and residents. The staff are always greeting us and calling us by our first name. The day to day food is about average but the special meals our outstanding. The special meals include lobster, and prime rib. For Mardi Gras we had a big holiday dinner it was just outrageous. I find this place to be very comfortable and would recommend to others coming here and giving it a shot.

We walked in and were immediately overwhelmed by how big the facility was, I was nervous dad was going to get lost. It is a gorgeous place but it is pricey. The person interviewing us was brand new and did not know how to answer my questions.

Great place. Our dad was apprehensive to move, especially from out of state. He looked at and picked FHC, but was still unsure. He agreed to a 6-month trial. After 3 months, he announced he was "not going back." Great staff and facility.

Independence with care.
The personal care gives a lot of freedom to the residents. The meals are wonderful. It is a good fit for the folks that are higher functioning. They have a lot of Independent folk there. The room sizes are very nice. Memory care is a much smaller area and has more intense care.

Not what my mother needed...
I didn't really get to see much, we were going to go there at one point but they evaluated my mother as needing more care than they could do, they only had a couple patients at the time. Other than that the place seemed nice cosmetically, and the people that I came in contact with were very nice.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Kentucky regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Kentucky regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Forest Hills Commons 7.7 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
