The management team, including the administrator, Director of Nursing (DON), and unit manager, are commended for being friendly, fair, and welcoming, creating a strong team environment.

Activities and personal care services like nail painting and hair styling are provided to residents, ensuring their well-being and happiness.
Several employees express their satisfaction with working at the center, citing a great community, family atmosphere, and a focus on providing quality care. The introduction of a new Pulmonary Unit with specialized staff and a comprehensive strengthening program is highlighted as a positive development. Continuous upgrades to the facility, including new paint, flooring, and dining room remodels, are mentioned as evidence of ongoing improvement efforts.
However, there are serious concerns raised in some reviews.

The reviews present a complex picture, suggesting that while many find the care and environment at Forest Street to be excellent, there are significant areas that need improvement.
