Reviews Forest Ridge
October 2026
Large turn over of employees. Which is leaving FR short handed due to new hires leaving on their first day, or within a week or two. Not a good situation for daily residences care.
October 2026
My mom has been here for 2 years as of October 8, 2026. Things you need to be AWARE of before you sign the papers. Nurse Ratio to residence This is a 1 nurse to 6 residence per State Regulations. This facility ONLY has 2 aids on the floor per Living options. But told at facility it was by State Regulations. THIS IS NOT ENOUGH OF STAFF.!!! TRUST ME!!!! Keep reading… Sage Core Call System This is like life alert system. Don’t believe what they tell you about this system. In theory it sounded great. In reality, it is not any better than the other system they had. Per the letter I received: Faster help when it counts, Teamwork you can trust, Proactive care, and Transparency and clarity. Doesn’t happen!!!! THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH STAFF!!! And don’t let them tell you otherwise. Keep reading... Fees for Level of Care 1-5 These are not what they seem...TRUST ME!!!!!! I am paying for Level 5 Care, $1,860, which I thought would give my mom that extra attention you would think the top level would be. They are BS, you're just paying for the illusion that you're getting top level care. Keep reading... **True Event which happens on MANY occasions When a resident needs both aids to take a bath or go to the restroom and it takes 10 to 20 minutes. My mom one rings the call bell along with 2 other residences that also needs both aids for assistance. She is now having to wait for her turn for assistance. BUT there only 2 aids and now 3 people are in line for help so her wait time has now gone up to 10 to possibly 30 minutes. This has happened a lot and she has sat in her own urine for as long as 20 to 30 minutes. I buy her briefs, so I know it happens. Please note: This IS NOT THE AIDS FAULT. ITS MANAGEMENTS!!! THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH STAFF!! On 10-08-26 I finally had enough of my mom sitting in her urine and her room wreaking of urine smell, so I spoke to [name removed], Executive Director and Administrator and [name removed], Director of Clinical Services, RN to address these matters. Along with asking why they can't keep staff from quitting and being short staffed. [name removed] said they were not short staffed, they were staffed per state law. I then told her I was tired of my mom sitting in urine and having to wait for someone to come help her. She then told me she had to "wait her turn" when the call bells were rung. I then asked what good is being on Level 5 care if she is not given a little more attention. To which she said, “everyone gets the same attention.” And my reply was...” WHY AM I PAYING FOR TOP LEVEL 5 CARE IF EVERYONE GETS THE SAME CARE AS SHE IS??? I want my price to drop since there is no difference, apparently, in how you are cared for.” Her reply was, she does not set the price. Which was not an answer to the question. My final statement was "you ARE short staffed." **This is for Navion Senior Solutions. Since you did not respond to my message on Friday afternoon. I can only assume you are short staffed as well and instead of “We’ll be in touch shortly” that means 5 to 7 business days. You can refer to that message as to who I am. SECOND REQUEST Once again, I want a breakdown of the TYPE OF CARE that is given for each of the 5 Levels of Care for this facility. I also want a printout of the Sage Core call system for the past 4 months or as far back as possible. Because per my Sage for Families letter, Transparency and clarity: Sage documents every action, so families have a clear view of what’s happening day to day. I know this will not be shown on your Reviews. But I will keep posting it until I get a response.

I visited my friend Pat. She was up in her recliner watching TV (which is what she likes). Staff came by to check on her and bring fresh ice water, while I was there. Forest Ridge is clean, staff is friendly and responsive.

My wife is a memory care resident at Forest Ridge. I could not be more pleased with the care that she has been given. She loves the staff and the staff loves her. If I ever have to go to assisted living, it will be at Forest Ridge.

This community has gone beyond our expectations in their care for our mother. I have not seen my mother so content in many years. She is taking part in the activities and on the field trips she has helped the needy kids pick-out school supplies, she helped a friend find a watch. The community is beautiful, clean and welcoming.

I just think Forest Ridge did a really good job on helping my loved one adjust to the atmosphere. It is a difficult time for anyone, but my loved one ended up liking it at Forest Ridge. It was a good experience.
