My husband suffered rapid decline from memory loss / Alzheimer's, and I struggled to navigate the world of placement options for him. When I stumbled on Forever Young (his 3rd placement) and met the owner I honestly very quickly considered him to be my guardian angel. He was very knowledgeable and confident that his home could manage and care for my husband. The home itself was immaculate and full of life and the staff was kind, caring and professional. I couldn't have been more relived that my husband would spend his time in the care of competent caregivers that honestly cared for and treated my husband as their own family. It is with the highest level of confidence that I can recommend Forever Young for the care of your loved one.

I work as a shower aide for an Orange County hospice agency, and I have been assisting Forever Young Memory Care for more than a year with our hospice patients. I want to share my experience working with Forever Young Memory Care team because it is one of a kind and families need to know this. Each time I visit the team members greet me with a smile. You can see that they like their job and enjoy caring for the residents. I am treated like a team member when I am there, which makes me feel special. The team culture at Forever Young is very contagious. If you visit you can experience it yourself. Forever Young is not just a facility, it is a home. An actual home where there is love, harmony, and most of all respect between the team, residents, and visitors. This home is the best home that I have ever supported. Thank you [name removed] for creating such a beautiful home!

Between my brother and I we toured 10+ assisted living and memory care communities. Visiting Forever Young Memory Care was a breath of fresh air. Before visiting we spoke with [Name removed] on the phone and he was generous with his time and not only answered all our questions, he gave us good advice. His home is clean, inviting and professionally ran. This was the first home where the caregivers greeted us and made eye contact. I was not surprised that there was a waiting list if you wanted your parent to move-in. We did put our mom on the waiting list and hope it works out. Fingers crossed!

I own a non-emergency medical transport company and get to visit hundreds of care homes
and large assisted living facilities every year. Very rarely do I leave a positive review for a
care home, but Forever Young deserves it! When I arrived at their home with my client
(their resident) there was a "We Missed You" sign on the front door for the client I was bring
back to them from the rehab facility. Two of the caregivers came outside to greet and hug
[name removed]. They seemed to genially care about her and were happy she was back. I followed
them into the home and was impressed with its cleanliness and how well it was kept up. I
was blown away when I received a card in the mail from their administrator thanking me for
getting [name removed] back to their home safely. It made my day!

I've found in the past dealings that all care facilities are different in many ways. When I spoke to [name removed], I felt good about where my brother was and where he was going to spend the rest of his life. The staff were extremely nice and genuine and safe, the facility was very nice and clean, and the food and care were excellent. My brother and I grew up in Tustin, I will always feel good about the A+ experience he had during his final DAYS OF LIFE

Some places stand out more than others. I think it is the people that make an impression and
William does that in spades. It is patently obvious that he really does care and that your loved
one will be in great hands. He will offer the best suggestion for your situation, even if it is not
the best situation for him. I trust [name removed] and would not hesitate to recommend.

My mom lived at Forever Young Memory Care for 7 months before her passing this year. Our experience here was so far beyond anything we were hoping for, on every level. The owner {name removed} is a compassionate expert in the field, and he sets the highest level of care standards in the industry. The caregivers are not only very experienced at caring for residents with dementia, but the level of love and dignity they provide to the residents is unsurpassed. They make the home feel like everyone's home and are so welcoming to family members and supportive of the individual needs and interests of each resident. We were able to decorate mom's room, have her dog, plant a garden, do crafts, celebrate her birthday and mom was made to feel so loved and wanted there. Every care need was met and communication with family on any and every item of note was made without delay. {name removed} always makes himself available and so kind to answer messages right away, in addition to offering advice on any range of questions relating to mom's care. The house is spotless and such a warm and welcoming environment. Even though my mom has passed away. {name removed} and the staff still feel like my family since they loved my mom. I can't recommend Forever Young highly enough to anyone who may be fortunate enough to have an opportunity to get into his home. It was life changing for my mom and my family in every good way. Many heartfelt thanks to you {name removed} and all the caregivers at this amazing place!

After months of care in a couple of skilled nursing facilities after my mother's stroke, it was time for her to move into a more home-like nurturing living situation. She needed more care now than her prior assisted living apartment. My sister and I were shown several board and care homes and Forever Young was a STAND OUT! {name removed} and his staff made us feel instantly at ease. The home is in a comfortable neighborhood on a large lot. {name removed} has remodeled this home with 6 private bedrooms and 3 beautifully finished bathrooms. One is extra large with a roll-in shower. The living areas are expansive with large windows to view the beautiful park like-backyard. Besides the staff being highly trained, they are exceptionally welcoming to family members visiting and extremely kind to all residents. {name removed} is always available by phone or text. Even at times when he is busy with his own young family, he will return calls right away. He has been so helpful with information as my mother's dementia has progressed . My sister and I are grateful that we have been able to have our mother live at Forever Young, we rest easier knowing she is in a safe, clean, loving home.

Forever Young Memory Care, with William at the helm, is widely regarded as one of the best residential care facilities in Orange County. As an assisted living facility that specializes in memory care, that is, providing care for resident with dementia and other forms of cognitive loss, Forever Young is one of the best board and care homes that a family can choose for their loved ones.

Review of Forever Young Memory Care
I visited Forever Young Memory Care 3 weeks ago and I felt like I was walking into my dream home. I was meeting with William, the owner, and he greeted my colleague and I with such a warm welcome. We were discussing a product that the company that I work for makes and he gladly allowed us to share our love and passion for the elderly, especially ones with dementia. In exchange, he expressed his great passion for his residents, which I was astounded to hear. His heart and passion is genuine and it shows in the home he has created for his beloved residents.

Forever Young Memory Care has cared for my mother for the past 16 months. I transitioned her to this wonderful care home because of her increased needs that were no longer met by a larger memory care residence. FYMC has a professional, caring staff that feel like family! The owner, William Young, created a beautiful, clean, and safe home for residents, and I am so thankful my Mother is getting the best care in Orange County.

Review of Forever Young Memory Care
Forever Young is an extremely well-managed home with a caring staff that has a lot of patience and kindness. Our mother has been there for four months, arriving shortly before the quarantine. It was such a relief to find a home with a well-trained staff, excellent management and deep understanding of how both patients and families are affected. One of the most significant advantages is that doctors visit weekly (or face time during the pandemic) and arrange for extra care as needed on site (podiatrist, etc.) The doctors are responsive to the families and medications are delivered as needed. The backyard is a huge plus, with a stunning gazebo and wonderful walking path for our Mom.

Review of Forever Young Memory Care
A few months ago my sister and I moved our mother to Forever Young Memory Care from a facility in New York. We spent a considerable amount of time and research looking for just the right place. After touring the residence, meeting with William (the owner) and seeing how much he personally cares about people we knew that this was the place
for her. William and I spoke for many hours over many days before my sister and I made our decision and it became very clear that he has a level of knowledge and experience in the field of senior memory care that is hard to match. Just as importantly, his love for his profession and the residents is palpable and is strongly reflected in his staff as well. The residence is bright, beautiful and clean and the back yard is set up with a make believe general store where the residents can take or borrow anything there that hits their fancy. The residents share a large common living room that includes a full, attention catching aviary. My sister takes weekly pictures of our mother and the improvement we have seen in her physical health and general emotional state had been remarkable. It is good to see her smiling. I highly recommend William and Forever Young.

Wow. Words can't describe the amazing human that is [Name removed]. This is the real deal, hands down, some of the best care and service I have ever experienced. My grandfather, in a time of great need, was helped and guided by [Name removed].

Review of Forever Young Memory Care
My dad live at Forever Young and it was a great experience for both him and our family. [Name removed] and all the caregivers truly care about his well-being and always welcomed any and all visitors. Their care for my dad was a great relief to us all and give us peace of mind that he was getting the care he needed. When I was researching board and care homes for my dad is in like the others were clean but were not designed to provide stimulation to the residents. Many had recliners lined up in front of the television which I believe was the "entertainment" for the day. At Forever Young, [Name removed] goes to great lengths to provide other stimulation with music playing, a large birdcage which my dad enjoyed watching regularly, a beautiful backyard and so much more. While the cost is higher than the other homes, our entire family felt it was a great value because the team [Name removed] has is the best I've seen. If you are thinking about having a loved one stay forever young, I would highly recommend it.

Review of Forever Young Memory Care
I have the pleasure of visiting the Forever Young facility. It was not the first of such facility that I visited. My mother passed away two years ago at the age of 82 at my dad is still hanging on at 93 so I have on many occasions frequented a few of these elderly care facilities. If I compare Forever Young based on how large their facility it is against the commercial institutional company is, then my review and is here. However, sometimes it is not about the size of the company that matters but the quality and professional care the people within the organization exude.
[Name removed] was very courteous to the residents while giving me a grand tour of his establishment. I don't believe he did that for my benefit because it seems so natural. Him along with his wonderful caring and compassionate staff really put forth the effort to improve the quality of life of the patients and their families.
Having grown up in the Midwest, I can appreciate having a general store and the ice cream parlor on the premises. The green lawn and landscaping was neat and meticulous. We had a great leisurely conversation under the gazebo gazing out at the roofs of the neighboring homes with the help of the slight rolling hillside.
The facility has been upgraded with all the latest and greatest security equipment. My olfactory picked the aroma of home cooked meal from the kitchen as I toured the special rooms that was recently remodeled to accommodate even the extreme patient.
Nobody lives forever, so one day down the road when I will eventually require living assistance, I'm going to personally check myself into Forever Young. If I am on able to do it myself that I hope my son will make the arrangements for me.

Review of Forever Young Memory Care
I first contacted [Name removed] two years ago when my 79-year-old mother was experiencing memory loss. He spent a lot of time educating me about dementia and living options. It was clear how passionate he is about this subject. He said my mom wasn't ready for his house, but he gave me lots of tips on how to choose an assisted living facility. We kept in touch and he was always willing to answer questions and help guide me through this world that was so foreign to me. I really appreciated the time he spent with me, particularly since he asked for nothing in return and didn't try to push me towards a certain facility.
What temperature of 2018, it became clear my mom needed more care than she was being provided. I called [Name removed] and decided to move her to Forever Young. She was adamant that she didn't want to move, so [Name removed] came up with a plan to make the move as stress-free as possible for mom and me (since I was so anxious about going against mom's wishes). He visited with her, hosted us on a visit to Forever Young, and called me daily to make sure I was OK. He truly went above and beyond and I'm extremely grateful. After only three days at Forever Young, my mom said she never wanted to leave. I was amazed!
The house is beautiful and the backyard is so serene. The caregivers are wonderful, caring people who seem to truly be bond with the residence. They often send me pictures and videos of months I can see how she's doing. After watching my mom at two different assisted-living communities, I believe we have now found her "forever "home" at Forever Young. I can't recommend [Name removed] and his house highly enough.
