Its easy for terminated staff to leave bad reviews about Forest City but when it comes down to it if you did your job you would still have one. Forest City is not only a nursing home but its centered around behavioral health- that alone makes everyones job a little harder. I absolutely love my job and everyone I work with. If you truly enjoy working with the elderly and anyone with mental illness and want to make their day better then you look past that our building may be older and not as up to date as the building down the street but the staff that we have looks at our residents

I am sharing only a one star just because they accepted and had my mother in law there as a patient. They are poor staff. They never returned calls or made sure my mother in law phone was charged for us to call. We call and they would say they will charge it a whole month went by and nothing. They never updated on how her P.T. was going. I give props to Kendra one of the staffs as she was helpful and to Amanda she was very rude. I do not recommend this place to any one at all. When it was time for discharge which was recently they have lost her items. She did not come back with a phone/charger

This facility is lovely. The people who come to take care of me are lovely and friendly. I have a comfortable bed and get to work directly with Physical therapy workers. I have social workers who visit with me often. The facility is doing all they can during a hard time to make sure I don't feel lonely.
