I was worried about the transition of my mom into an assisted living facility. Fortunately, Brookdale Forest City provided excellent care and exceeded all expectations. The memory care unit had a great layout and decorations that gave the residents something to do and interact with, and the staff were very kind. My mother has seen both physical and cognitive improvements since moving in, and I have heard there is a great cook there as well. Overall, I highly recommend this facility for its outstanding care.
