I have been a resident here at the Forum since July snd I can honestly say I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else! The staff is so thoughtful, caring and makes living here a pleasure. It’s a fun place with many varied activities and evening entertainment. The food is very good with a wide variety of choices and special requests are honored. My fellow residents are all so nice it’s hard to believe it’s real. A real place of peace and fun!

Yesterday was my very first time visiting here in my life! This place is absolutely beautiful on the inside especially the lobby when you walk in the main doors! This whole place was super clean from top to bottom! I came here yesterday for a job interview and a tour! Alex was so professional and helpful she really is a great team member and I enjoyed having her as my guide! I was coming to fill a spot as a CNA but the position was only PRN! Hopefully when there's more availability I will consider joining the staff at the forum at brookside! Thank you to all the staff members of the forum at brookside for making my first time there so enjoyable and comfortable you guys are so great!!!!!

My mother, in her 90s, moved into the Forum about a year ago. Although she was reluctant to leave her home, she is now much happier at the Forum where she has daily companionship, excellent care, and no worries about caring for her house. The staff members are fabulous; they truly care about their residents. The food is very good and individual requests are honored. (Thanks Jerry!) The apartments and grounds are well cared for. Our family feels so fortunate to have the Forum.

My father is a resident in one of the apartments.My father and our family are concerned that visitors are now allowed in the residents apartments. We feel that it is too soon to allow non-essential visitors. The reason why is that the residents just received their second Covid vaccine shot last week. There should be a few weeks of time elapsing after the second shot to ensure the vaccine is effective on each resident. After this time elapses, then the residents bodies would be less susceptible if exposed to a contagious visitor.Also, we feel all non-essential visitors should have gotten both required vaccines before being allowed to visit a resident at the Forum.As an example --What if a resident is walking down the hallway and an outside asymptomatic visitor coughs or sneezes near that resident? The contagious spores could possibly infect the resident. It would have been safer to wait approximately 3 weeks after the residents received their second shot before allowing non-essential visitors to enter the buildings.We know everyone is anxious to see family and friends. However, waiting a few more weeks of ensuring a safer environment would be better in our opinion.We are pleased with the transparency and other aspects of my father residing at the Forum.

This is the kindest place; every level of staff here friendly and kind, with the residents comfort and happiness as an obvious priority. My elderly parents have been here for 5 years, and they and the family truly feel blessed with how they are cared for.

I have worked at a few other rehab, skilled nursing facilities, nursing homes but the people that work right along beside me at the Forum at Brookside are some of the greatest individuals I know. They are truely in it for the love of serving others. One usually sees how much the staff loves their residents when you enter on the unit. The residents are happy and you see staff engaging with them. There are great residents, families, and staff at the Forum at Brookside and I truely love going into work every day.

My mother was at the Forum for rehabilitation services after a fall. The people are great and helped her get back her independence. Mom particularly liked the therapists and the food.

My dad has been at the Forum health center since May. We have been very pleased with the staff and the care he has received. Specifically, Sharonda, Bobbie, Erica, and Shameka have gone above and beyond to ensure the absolute best care for my dad. Id like to list some other staff members who have given my dad exceptional care as well.Vyteis, Tiffany, Lana, Shawn, Rommel, Ronald, Gloria, Victoria, Albine, and Jen. Id also like to include Eric, Kristin, and the two ladies that plan all the activities! I hope I havent missed anyone!

My wife spent 6 months in the skilled nursing center. She couldnt do anything for herself including talking or understanding when you talked to her. The staff did an exceptional job taking care of her. I spent a lot of time there and saw how difficult a job they have. Any issue I had was addressed immediately. They have many caring and dedicated people working there. Several have been there for many years. They certainly knew how to care her.

My parents have been in this beautiful facility for years. After my dad passed, my mom was at the mercy of the management. Who in their right minds would force a 96 year old woman to move from her apartment? The Managements needs always outweighed her needs. It happened before, too. Shame on them.

My father came to the Forum independent living on January 5, 2018 and after 3 months my sister and I think its one of the best decisions weve ever made. Dad loves it. I love it. The activity director, Mark is really good and there is tons going on all the time. High quality food. You can have your pet if you want. You do not need a car. There are weekly shuttles to grocery and other stores. They will take you to doc and other appointments. Tipping is not allowed. They have trips to the theatre, restaurants, orchestra, Louisville sports and many others. Out of town over night trips too. There are craft classes, creative writing, games, exercise, swimming, aerobics. A podiatrist comes to the Forum. They have a hair salon, barbershop you do need to pay for. There is a happy hour twice a week. You cannot wear jeans to dinner. There is no alcohol at meals. There are religious services, computer classes. They seem to have all different types of living situations. My dad has an apartment. We got him a scooter and he zips around everywhere. The ages seem to range from late 60s to over 100. The campus has plenty of green grass, lots of large mature trees, a Brook. Oh, dad has a patio too that overlooks the quad. This place is a blessing since moms death. I highly recommend.

The Forum at Brookside is more than a happy and comfortable retirement village with beautiful facilities. The Forum at Brookside is composed of a large, friendly and talented staff and with many, many warm and familiar faces. It is a neighborhood, a growing family, all sharing in our unique and extraordinary journey of life, with the various pains and joys of one another as newfound brothers and sisters. Is there any other way?Billy Cox

The Forum at Brookside is a wonderful place for elderly care. It was difficult when my mothers physical health failed and home care was no longer a consideration. The Forum at Brookside provides wonderful meals, medical care, great rest, a social environment where the residents can get involved in activities, and a staff who truly cares for my mom. The staff at The Forum at Brookside engages my mom in banter, speaks to her kindly and truly cares for her needs. My mom requires total physical care, as well as bandaging of a wounds issue acquired before she became a resident there. They care for her impeccably and I cant express my appreciation enough nor acknowledge highly enough the great peace of mind they have provided me with the quality care they provide for my mom. Sara, an administrator there has provided unprecedented one on one kindness and consideration for me and my mom, and with all considered, I have to recommend The Forum at Brookside very highly!
