Distinctive Living

After an intense research for the right place for my husband, this one made the grade!

It is one "Big Family" at Inspired Living Lakewood Ranch. I am reassured this is the right facility for my father. I had inquired seriously at 3 other places, then discovered Inspired Living Lakewood Ranch. They treay their residents like their own mother and fathers (family) Thank you LWR Inspired Living to each employee and volunteer for your kind attentive care to my father and listening to my concerns. I would like to add the nursing staff is exceptional.

Not only a premier facility, but a warm, happy, loving environment. The staff is beyond amazing. I have a feeling they will become extended family.

I moved my mom to Inspired Living when it opened about four years ago. Previously she was at two other facilities in Sarasota. Neither one of them compare to the care she is receiving at Inspired Living. My wife's family has been so impressed with my mother's experience all these years that they decided to move their mother into Memory Care. They have been very happy with their decision. My mother- in -law loves where she lives.

great employees, great atmosphere, great facility, great place to feel the love.

I thought the entire community was beautiful and every staff person I met with was very friendly and helpful; it was an excellent experience for me, as I am just beginning the process.

My brother, who has Alzheimer’s lives in Tampa at Inspired Living. I visited several facilities that treat Alzheimers patients before deciding on Inspired. He has been there a couple of years. The care he has received is exceptional. Inspired staff are well trained, very caring and patient with my brother. They have many daily activities and take him to restaurants. He is so happy and I have peace of mind that he is well cared for. I highly recommend Inspired Living!

My brother-in-law, who has Alzheimer’s, has lived at Inspired Living for the past two years. He is so happy! His care has been excellent. The staff are well trained, the food is good, and his needs are met. He sees a doctor every two weeks, goes to restaurants and outings and is busy through the day with activities. I highly recommend Inspired Living.

New facility, staff friendly, seems like a lot of activities are available

I had a very good tour with [name removed]. She answered all of my questions with confidence and I felt I can believe the answers that she provided. Location is extremely accessible which was a big plus. Is a top contender on my list.

Mom enjoyed every aspect of her time at Chelsea at Forsgate. The staff was caring, competent, compassionate and considerate of Mom’s wants and needs. Mom even loved the food and enjoyed sitting through both the early and late dining time each day. Words cannot express how grateful I am to the Chelsea at Forsgate family for embracing Mom in everything that mattered and making every day worthwhile. ??

When I visited there were very friendly,caring staff and talking with residents. I felt like this was a home and not a facility. Very large beautiful courtyard! If your loved one wakes up late they can still have breakfast, flexible dining not like other facilities. Open door policy with all managers they are available and they listen,especially [name removed]. [Name removed]

My mother, [name removed] has been so pleased with the kindness and excellent job that the aides are doing. The aides are making sure mom takes her medication on time and promptly. When the aides bathe my mom, they are gentle and kind with mom. I want to recognize the staff at Chelsea Forsgate for their excellent care.

My brother and I put our mother into the Chelsea at Forsgate and we are so glad we did. Our mom was in the Memory Care at Chelsea until the day she passed away. The staff at Chelsea were wonderful! The nurses kept my brother and I informed about mom's care each step of the way, as her condition deteriorated. The staff and nurses were always available to us if we had any questions. My brother went all different times to visit our mother, and he commented more than once, that he was very happy with the aides, and staff. Toward the end of mom's life, we were very grateful to the Grace Hospice staff and their team. Our experience was excellent, and we would recommend The Chelsea at Forsgate to anyone looking for a place for their loved one. [Name removed]

To the entire staff of The Chelsea at Forsgate Monroe Twp, NJ May 18, 2018 Very early today my Uncle [Name removed] passed away. Also today he was buried. In the Jewish faith we bury the deceased quickly if possible. Everyone did what was necessary to ensure this happened efficiently and promptly. I want to thank each and every team member because my uncle was happy at The Chelsea. At first, it was a big adjustment but he acclimated quickly due to the loving care and attention he got every day from every person there. For me, it all started with [Name removed]. I interviewed many such facilities in Jackson, near my uncle's prior home and in Monroe, near my home. I chose The Chelsea not only because of its proximity, but because of [Name removed] and also [Name removed]. Both were very assuring and so I believed he would get the proper care; my conclusion proved sound. Nurses [Name removed], [Name removed], and [Name removed]were wonderful. They kept me informed at all times. They called if there was an issue. They took great care of his needs. They welcomed me each time I visited. They were not just his nurses; they were his friends (and mine too). Dr. [Name removed]was wonderful. [Name removed]and the team downstairs in the Cottage were fabulous. I wish I could remember everyone's names. So many, all were terrific...Associates I can describe but cannot recall their names, for that I apologize. Everyone always made me feel welcome and provided care and concern for my uncle. He ate with the V.I.P.s and he truly felt he was just that- a VIP. This morning when I went to his room at 6 AM to see him one last time, I was so impressed that 2 staff members who tended to him came to say their goodbyes. Clearly, though he has passed, he wasn't just another short term visitor. They treated him with care, respect, and with loving attentiveness even after he was gone. The Grace hospice team was exceptional. [Name removed] and [Name removed] deserve huge kudos for the care they provided in his final days. Thanks as well to [Name removed], the social worker, and the Rabbi who came to offer prayers and blessings and give support to me and my family... I suppose this is a love letter of sorts. I love every single person who made my Uncle's time at The Chelsea enjoyable. Yes enjoyable. He adored the staff. And he loved the food! He had Sloppy Joes for the first time and loved them! He also enjoyed festivities, especially the music. Uncle [Name removed] was a loner for many years. But he was never lonely at The Chelsea. I will be forever grateful that you gave him joy these last few months. Thank you, thank you, thank you, and bless you all for the wonderful work you do. My family and I are so very appreciative... - [Name removed]

I walked in to check out Chelsea late on Thursday evening. A receptionist took my information and told me that the sales person would call me the next day. I told her I was from out of town and would love to see the building. The receptionist called someone to do her job, while she showed me around. The building looked great and everyone I met was friendly. Unfortunately, my mother had to stay in a nursing home, but I would highly recommend.
