Distinctive Living

Visited Bald Eagle. Impressed.

Very clean, well organized and exceptionally well run. Extensive programs for the members.

I really liked this community but they did not have any single beds for my loved one.

They have people to clean and do your laundry for you. I have a nice size unit with a nice walk in shower. I would like a kitchen but they don’t have those. They have a lot of activities, bingo, exercise, and church services. They do have transportation. I would say they are the best in the area. They have a beautiful swimming pool and a park. You can have pets. Owners are wonderful. They keep grounds just beautiful.

My Mother was in need of a Senior Living Facility and I contacted the Chelsea at Forsgate. The facility and the staff was wonderful, accommodating and answered all of my questions openly and honestly. I was even provided a tour on very short notice. What was impressive that on the day I was to tour the facility, the amount of residents sitting in the common area, reading, listening to music, talking - it was nice to see them socializing and not sitting in their rooms; unfortunately the location in Monroe was not convenient for my mother and our family but I am holding on to their Brochure in case our situation should change. This would be the First phone call I wold make.

I am resident here at The Chelsea Forsgate and have been for over a year. Staying at Forsgate is a little different from being at home, but very close to my home environment. The staff is just like family members to me. Staff will reach out and helps me with anything I need. If you are considering a move for yourself or someone in your family I highly recommend Chelsea Forsgate.

Very nice facility and employees are very good, efficient and caring. It is also a very pretty place with wide hallways and a beautiful setting. Nice views out the window. My mother loves her apartment on the Independent Living side.

The most diverse clientele of all the places I looked at. Very friendly. Leadership is very attentive and goes above and beyond to be helpful. The activities are great. Overall very pleased with the experience so far.

My mom was at the Chelsea at Brick since March 2018. I couldn't of asked for a friendlier staff of caring individuals. They have treated us like family members since day one. My mom recently passed away and the outpouring calls and asking if we needed anything was incredible. The Chelsea is a clean, welcoming modern facility, I would recommend to any family.They have many activities to accommodate all.

I had to place my husband in care while I had surgery and recovery. He was very happy, well cared for and enjoyed the entire time. All of the staff and employees were absolutely wonderful. I would recommend this facility to anyone. It really is a wonderful place.

I don't often write reviews, however, my experience touring Autumn Leaves in Venice was something to write about. I have researched and/or toured every Assisted Living and Memory Care Program in SouthWest Florida finding nothing I could feel good or confident about. After my visit to Autumn Leaves, I finally felt a sense of relief that there was an option for my father to live in a safe, dignified and caring environment where his needs could be met respectfully. The physical facility was brand new and immaculate and was decorated in a way that was warm and homey. The staff were professional, friendly and really knowledgeable about Alzheimer's Disease. They definitely related to what our family and father have been going through. They were able to answer all of our questions and concerns. I was also impressed with the plans for high quality food services and stimulating activities for the residents. I'd highly recommend looking at this residence if you're needing to go through the ordeal of moving a family member to an Assisted Living Care environment

I have been searching for the best care for my father who sadly has suffered with Alzheimer's Disease. I have toured every possible Assisted Living and Memory Care Facility in South West FL. I found Autumn Leaves in Venice to be the absolute best residence and the only one I would consider moving my father to. The physical environment was beautiful and dignified. The staff that we met were compassionate, knowledgeable and supportive towards my father and my family. The activities, living environment, privacy and actual treatment was so impressive. We left our tour feeling for the first time with a sense of relief that we now have an option for quality and respectful care for our father.

My mother has recently made the move into this community and we could not be more pleased with how things are going for her. The overall staff have been so amazing and are always available to answer any questions we may have for them. The thing I am most impressed with would have to be the meals. They are always beyond amazing and my mother has actually gained healthy weight from eating so well. I like to see that she is getting out and starting to participate in some of the activities they have going on for the residents. Overall we are very happy and would recommend it to anyone.

They have a lot of activities at The Chelsea. My wife enjoys going to the auditorium and watching movies. She seems to like the food and the staff seem to be on the ball. This is a beautiful community and I would recommend it. She has made lots of friends and seems to like it there.

The staff has been extremely supportive and caring. My mom came in with dementia, but was still walking on her own and could care for herself mostly. As her needs changed, and she needed help with showering, dressing, and using a walker, the staff alerted me and we made accommodations. The only change my mom would have liked is more native English speaking helpers who dressed her - my mom sometimes had difficulty understanding them with their accents/limited vocabulary. But other than that, she's loved all the staff.

It has been 1 month so far since my Mom entered The Chelsea. She sounds like she has adjusted to the environment very well and she is eating all her meals. Plus getting physical therapy.

They are doing a pretty good job so far. When we first got mom in there, they had a new director, but things have run pretty smoothly. I did have an issue with the level of care at first. She seems to be happy and seems to have made an adjustment. Anytime something has come up it has been handled very well. It's clean, the people are extremely friendly, and not fake or phony.

This facility is Beautiful! The staff is so sweet and kind,they do everything to make our family member,and our family feel at home.The staff pays attention to every detail,no matter how small.We really feel like they are a part of our family. We know our loved one is happy and healthy there.We would highly recommend The Chelsea at Brick.We looked at other places,but we knew when we took a tour of The Chelsea,this was the place.All of the residence were so happy to be there! Kelly and Bennett were so helpful and sweet to us and our loved one,we knew this was the place for us.

My dad is 91 and pretty self sufficient. My mom is 86 and a diabetic who had to go from oral meds to three shot of insulin a day. She was unable to administer these shots herself. They live five minutes away from me , so I would go there three times a day to do this and help with breakfast and lunch and bring dinner to make sure they were eating correctly. I am their daughter and love them ,but it just got to be exhausting. I am recovering from cancer and will hopefully be able to go back to work soon. I had to figure out a better way for all of us.i went on line and a place for mom came up. I put in my information and 5 minutes later I received a phone call that gave me peace of mind. I was not the only one in this situation. I was given a list of wonderful facilities to check out in my area. When I walked into the Chelsea ,I knew it would be perfect for them. The people were very kind and accommodating. Their little apartment was just perfect for them. It is clean , pretty and a happy place. Everyone greets you with a smile and a hello. My parents are making new friends and adjusting. They are slowly getting involved in some of the activities and I am happy for them. It is much better than sitting and watching TV all day! We went to the Mother's Day tea they had and it was very nice. I am so happy that they are in a great place and being taken care of. I truly have peace of mind and we are all able to have a better quality of life. I hope this little story helps someone realize that sometimes you just can't do it all and it's OK.

We're very happy with this community! It is a nice looking, clean place, and all the residents and staff have been very friendly! Everyone has really made her feel at home, and she is loving it here. She was recently nominated as the Valentine's Queen For The Day, which really tickled her. We toured quite a few places when we were looking into options, and this place was just a great combination of room type, amenities, and location for the price! I'd definitely recommend taking a look at it if you are searching.
