PruittHealth

My Mom lives at Forest Heights and has now for over a year. This is her third assisted living and this is by far the best one. The staff is great and handles her needs with care and compassion. The CNA's and Med Tech's are family really, and always alert me to anything, or any changes going on with my Mom. The fact that the Forest Heights is pet friendly is huge because I can bring my Mom's dog to her anytime and they can visit. And oh the music! Lots, and Lots of music takes place. The residents sing, and even have their own group called the Foresters. Forest Heights is a first rate place, doing a first class job. I would recommend this Assisted Living/Memory Care Community to anyone!!!

My family and I researched and visited multiple assisted-living facilities in the Winston-Salem area. Forest Heights came out on top: truly personalized care made possible by the small number of residents, clean and aesthetically-pleasing facility, good food (no small thing when one’s life is limited), reasonable all-around pricing and, most importantly, devoted, upbeat and involved staff--from the director to the sales and business managers to the physical therapist, right on down to the CNAs stationed on every floor. While it is never an easy decision to move a loved one into assisted living, at Forest Heights I know that my father will be well known, valued and treated with dignity by all. Staff are exceptionally responsive: they worked hand-in-hand with me and my father, down to the last detail, to make my dad's transition as smooth and stress free as possible. I can pick up the phone or email to inquire about my father and be assured of a response that very day, if not within that very hour. There are valid, important reasons why this facility has been granted the highest ratings by the state’s Department of Health and Human Services. Professionals at FH know what they are doing and are utterly devoted to the seniors they serve. In fact, several staff members mentioned that they consider it an "honor and a blessing" to be serving people who are in the final stage of their life span. For many, working at FH is more than a mere job: it is a calling and a service. You can sense that spirit upon visiting.

Unfortunately my loved one was only able to be here a brief time, but I thought they did a wonderful job. Everyone here was very caring and professional, and the facility itself was clean and well cared for. They are definitely worth a look if you are looking for care in the area.

Both my parents have been in forest heights for over 6 months now,they have been taken care of very well and the nursing the facilty has is excellent, The room they stay in is clean ,quiet and patient friendly. They tell me they enjoy the food ,the hospitality the nurses give them and also the attention they need when they need something.The only thing I do for them is shave my dad when he needs it and buy them depend under garments, liquid soap and any things might use.I would recommend this senior living facility to anyone out there.

My mother has lived at Forest Heights for 9 months. She has some memory problems and the staff is wonderful with her. She is in a wheelchair but she doesn't 't sit in her chair all day. The staff bathe her, get her dressed, and take her to the dining room three times a day. They put her in her lift chair during the day and also help her get into bed for naps. The staff members are very kind to her and patient with her. They call me if they notice something concerning or out of the ordinary. I know my mom is treated well when I'm not there. My mom gets her hair done in the on-site beauty shop each week and it is very affordable. She has had pedicures and manicures done also, and a podiatrist visits the facility regularly. The dining room serves nutritious meals that taste good, and I know because I've eaten there. The dining room staff are so nice and try to please everyone! There's planned activities every day and a wonderful activity staff. They're even able to get my mother to participate sometimes, and that's not easy. The best thing about Forest Heights is the people who work there. They love the residents and truly care about them, and the residents love them back! That's the first thing I noticed when I initially visited before deciding where I wanted my mom to live, and I have never regretted my decision!!

So far we've had a very positive experience with Brookdale Beckett Lake! The staff is friendly, the food is good, and every time I visit everything seems clean and well kept. They really try hard to meet the individual needs and wants of each of their residents. I would give them top marks across the board!

Sparks Inn is a very nice place, overall. They're very attentive to the needs of the residents, and I think they do a great job introducing new people to the community. Our experience so far has been a good one, and I would recommend Sparks Inn to others looking in the area!

I have been a resident at Heritage of Brookstone for over 5 years. I moved to Kennesaw from out of state to be closer to my children. We as a family visited several other facilities before deciding to move to Heritage. I was immediately struck with the light, comfortable and spacious common areas obviously well kept and odor free. My studio apartment is comfortable and cleaned frequently. The meals are well prepared and nutritious. We the residents are very well cared for by our 24 hour caregivers. We have a nurse on site, and a full time activities director who keeps us busy with activities on a daily basis as well as arranging shopping trips and outside excursions to community and special events. We also have quarterly family socials which are enjoyed by all. I view my fellow residents AND our wonderful, caring staff as my new family. All the staff from the executive director to the kitchen staff are competent, kind and caring individuals. Corporate management has shown itself to be committed to a program of cultural excellence.

I appreciated the diligence and assistance I received from A Place for Mom. Brighton Gardens is a quality setting with great customer service and health care assistance.

Dogwood Forest is a clean, safe, and caring environment. I moved my dad there six years ago, and, when she needed assisted living, my mom two years ago. Both parents were treated with respect and love. The staff genuinely cares for the residents and delivers personalized care. The food, by the way, is excellent.

Things have gone great with Heritage of Brookstone! It's a very nice looking place, and they have been taking great care of my loved one! The staff are all very friendly and caring, and the community has a lot to offer!

We're very pleased with how things have gone with Emeritus at Beckett Lake! It's a very nice place! The staff are extremely friendly, and they try very hard to provide whatever it takes to make their residents feel at home. The facility itself is very attractive, well kept, and clean, and they've got a lot to offer their residents!

We visit mom at this facility approximately 3 to 4 times a week and eat with her at least once or twice in the dining hall. Everyone there is friendly and makes it a point to know the people who live there. It is also very clean and maintained. The Director, Mike, also knows everyone's names, employees and residents. This says a lot about him. He helped design and opened this facility 13 years ago, and his own mother stayed there before she passed. Pricing is comparable to other places, but the value highly exceeds other places. This is a must on your list of places to check out!!!

My mother-in-law recently moved in Heritage of Peachtree and couldn't be happier!

Had a wonderful visit. Very friendly and the residents seem very happy. Its like fine dining to eat, and the rooms are spacious.

It's been really good. Sometimes there is a little bit of a lack of follow through with getting everything set up with medication and things, it takes a little bit to get settled in. The staff does a good job. The facility is nice. The food is healthy and they have different courses and they have a varied menu.

Our mom is thrilled to be living there. The rooms are well designed, and the building overall has a warm home-like feel to it. Lots of light, windows, and the building is well taken care of. The residents I met were very friendly and seemed eager to meet our mom. Pets are allowed, and our mom has a cat. No problem. The business and sales manager worked with us every step of the way. There were a few paperwork glitches, but none of any consequence. Both my sister and I live out of town, and we were anxious about moving mom. But she's happier now than ever. Keeps telling us how happy she is in her new apartment. The nursing staff is very attentive, and the meals are delicious. Our last experience with assisted living was a nightmare. As corny as this may sound, Forest Heights really does feel like home. I felt at ease the moment I first stepped through the front door. And my gut signaled this was the place for mom. My sister and I are both very pleased. Best kept secret in Winston-Salem.

Overall they have been fantastic! They are very responsive. They have good management. She likes the food and activities are great. It's small in comparison to some of the other places we looked at and that makes a difference. The only issue I have is the way you have to get medication they use a service and they don't always tell me when medicare doesn't cover a medication. I don't know untill I get the bill. That's not really Heritage though it's the medication service they use.

I am so glad we found Heritage when we needed a place for my parents. My parents are quite happy here and I'm happy with them there too. The office staff really worked with us to transition my parents here from another facility and were helpful and flexible to our needs. I'm really glad we choose this place for them! There are always activities for my dad, who's very social, and my mom gets great care too. It's been a while now, and my parents feel very 'at home' at Heritage. Their apartment is a good size and well maintained. It feels quite homey and comfortable. Heritage has a great staff-I truly believe that the care staff cares for my parents-they are affectionate and genuine. My parents have some medical issues and these have been handled really well. I've been made aware of things as they happened, but it's been taken handled-the medical staff really does what needs to be done! In other words, if my parents have an issue, yes, I'm called and aware of it, but Heritage already has the game plan in place and is able to take care of it. I can choose another option, but to be honest, they had the right game plan set to put in place. Another thing I really like about the staff is that they treat my parents as adults-they listen to them and ask for their input on things. Sometimes people forget that these folks lasted many years on their own just fine. They aren't children, they are fully grown and functional adults that just need life to be a bit easier. The facility is really nice. It's well maintained, and quite accessible. I've eaten with my parents on several occasions and the food is pretty tasty and fresh. It doesn't taste like a school lunch but a meal from home. I recommend Heritage highly for anyone that needs care for their family in this area.

My family knew that moving Mom into an assisted living facility was the right thing to do. But the actual "doing" was difficult. There were two bright spots that made this experince less difficult. One was the senior living advisor, Jenny Colditz. Jenny was "assigned" to my family and she was always there making sure that our search was progrssing and we had the information needed. The other bright spot was Brighton Gardens itself. When we toured, we meet with Matt who was an excellent representation for the community. By the time Mom moved in 6 months later, we had Eleni who was equally as awesome. We flew in from NYC to Atlanta and there was Eleni with an umbrella and smile to welcome Mom. This is a very personal decision for every family and I hope that each of you have the same positive outcome that my family did.
