Finally At Ease
reviewed on: 03/28/2019 by AnonymousI visited New Forest Estates by myself prior to taking my mom to visit. I was very pleased with the information I was given initially because it allowed me to determine whether or not this facility would be affordable for my mom. The executive director and sales person in training were very warm and receptive to all my concerns and answered all my questions. I was extremely impressed with the interactions I witnessed between the executive director, the sales person in training and other staff/employees and the residents we encountered during my tour. The residents were addressed by their name and some even hugged my "tour guides" along the way. It was apparent that the residents were happy and well cared for. It made my decision to place my mom there a little easier upon experiencing this type of atmosphere. I have no doubt that once my mom has moved in, any concerns we may have will be promptly addressed and every effort will be made to make her living arrangement there enjoyable. It was evident that the executive director and sales person in training love their jobs by the compassion and caring they showed their residents. How lucky can we be?
No cooking or driving
reviewed on: 10/23/2015 by Patricia FitzgeraldI attended an open house our at NewForest Estates, I was not ready to move in yet when my best friend of over thirty years informed me she was moving back to San Antonio. I informed her that I had the perfect place for her to move into. She loved her new apartment and the help. When I was ready I also moved in and I have been here one year. I love to eat my meals with my friend and I am glad that we do not have to drive anywhere to see each other. I am safe here and the best part is I do not have to cook! The staff is nice and helpful. There is transportation outings if I need to get anything.
Very nice looking place!

It was clean and well kept, and the staff all seemed very friendly. They are worth a look if you're looking for care in the area!
