Overall Review of Fair Haven Of Forest City

common 28 reviews mention this

Staff are described as attentive

Residents and families repeatedly describe staff as kind, professional, and responsive.

Many reviews praise the professionalism and kindness of the staff, with families saying they felt confident in day-to-day care. Several also describe a team approach and staff who go out of their way to make residents feel at home. A smaller set of reviews, however, reports experiences they consider unsafe or inadequate, including concerns about how care was handled.

caveat 6 reviews mention this

Cleanliness is a frequent topic

Some residents’ families praise cleanliness, but others describe strong odors and stained areas.

A few reviews specifically call out the facility as clean and say the environment felt well maintained. Others contradict that impression, describing smells (urine and feces) as a warning sign when they visited. There are also complaints about condition details in patient areas, including stained surfaces, which adds to the range of experiences.

common 5 reviews mention this

Rehab results get credit

Rehabilitation care is a major thread, with multiple reviews describing meaningful improvement.

Several reviewers talk about rehab after a hospital stay, including one describing wound monitoring and daily dressing to support healing. Others describe improvements after stroke rehab, including a family report that their loved one was able to come home and manage life afterward. Even among critical reviews, therapy and professional disciplines are mentioned, though the overall care experience is still judged inconsistently.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Care timing is criticized

Some reviewers say staff response times and assistance were slower than expected.

One review describes long waits for the call button, even with a family member present. Another reports that answers to the call bell varied from minutes to significantly longer waits, along with concerns about how consistently basic needs were handled. Together, these comments point to variability in responsiveness during day-to-day moments.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Diet and personal care need follow-through

A couple of reviews describe problems following dietary rules and providing timely personal care.

One reviewer says a strict diet ordered for their relative was not followed, with food and liquids being provided that were not allowed by the doctor. That same review also raises concerns about diaper-changing practices and the level of urgency during care. Another review adds dissatisfaction with overall consistency in patient care tasks, reinforcing worries about follow-through in daily routines.
