Vitality Living Lake Forest

Brian

My mom moved into Vitality Living Lake Forest. She loves it. She's met a lot of people and she's having fun. What attracted me the most was the fact that they had all the doctors that come in every week. The staff are awesome, too. I had lunch there the other day and my mom loves the food. It's great. They have movie nights, bingo, and all sorts of things.

I went to Vitality Living Lake Forest. We're probably going to go with them. It is a total community. It looks like a resort. It provides everything that my husband could want. They have restaurants, sports rooms, a physical therapy room, and very nice studios and one-bedrooms. It's about 18 minutes from the house, so it's convenient regarding that. The facility itself lays out beautifully. They have about 125 residents, so I think it provides my husband ample stimulation and people he can inter...

We have put a deposit down at Vitality Living Lake Forest. Assisted living level one is what they have for my mother. Everybody seemed very professional, warm, and welcoming. The property seemed clean and kept up. It was kind of elegant. They had chandeliers in the entranceway. They were very astute to me being there, and they're very efficient. I just thought it was very nice looking and very comfortable. I saw the menu and people were eating. I went by myself the first time on Sunday, and then...

Vitality Living Lake Forest was a beautiful facility. It was just the type of facility that I thought would overwhelm my mom and my aunt. It was very, very large. It meant that they would have to take elevators everywhere they went, and that was just way too much for them. The person who worked there was wonderful. The rooms were very nice. They did not have a 2-bedroom apartment available. We decided that it would be OK if they had rooms across the hall from each other, and they were very wil...

My husband and I visited Vitality Living Lake Forest together, and he said we would move in there. They have great common areas on every floor. There are gaming tables and chairs. They have separate areas for different activities instead of like one room for all activities. The staff who gave the tour was great. He was really good. He gave us a lot of information. We didn't find anything that was critical there. Everything was really good. The dining area is very inviting and well decorated. T...

I was able to see Vitality Living Lake Forest. The residents seemed pretty active, it had a friendly staff and a nice layout of the building. They also had their own medical facility, there's a lot of space for different activities, and a great walking path outside. We saw the residents eating dinner, and we saw the theater room, they had a nice wall that honored veterans right there in the front and I thought that was nice. The place was a little bit older and worn compared to the other facilit...

Vitality Living Lake Forest was nice. The atmosphere was friendly. The person giving the tour was also very nice, warm, friendly, attentive to the needs that we were looking for, and very informative. The units shown to us were very nice and clean. They showed us some that were still under construction and they showed us some that were ready to be rented out. Everything looked nice. The place was very clean and very warm, and everything seemed to be up-to-date. We chose it for mom because of the...

I'm hoping to get my mother into Vitality Living Lake Forest. It's very clean and you feel like you're on a cruise ship. The room had a nice setup and you don't feel like you're in a hospital, it has an apartment and it feels it's homey. The staff who assisted me was very nice. They have a decent amount of staff who've been there since they opened 20 years ago. So it showed me that they care about their employees and they value their people and that they're going to value their residents. I saw ...

Vitality Living Lake Forest was beautiful and very welcoming. The memory care residents seemed well taken care of and looked happy. Wish we could afford to put my mom there. They had a lot of crafts and board games. Even the residents were talking to us and showing us some of the latest crafts that they had done. So, it looked like they had some fun things for the residents. They have church services, too.

Vitality Living Lake Forest was nice, new looking, very clean, very open, and very vibrant. It would have been my first choice. The staff was helpful. I met one of the doctors and the executive director (or somebody fairly big in operations). The rooms were nice and well laid out. They offered a lot of amenities. They had activities and transportation to and from locations. I met a lot of the clients that were there.

We had a pretty thorough tour at Vitality Living Lake Forest. They did a great job in providing all the information up front. Their handouts were really informative. The facility's a little dated, but the atmosphere was really fantastic. I liked the way they had it laid out. Each floor has a different color scheme. It's the same layout, but each floor is color coded with its carpeting and its decoration. This is good for the seniors to know which floor they're on because it's easy for them to ge...

Helena went above and beyond to help my Dad. I came down with Covid and was unable to help my dad with his dog. She was an amazing helper and she did a fantastic job. We so appreciate her.

The Vitality Living Lake Forest was extremely clean, and they were very very helpful. They spent a lot of time with me explaining. I thought that it was a first-class place, it was very nice. I visited their assisted living.

I've moved into Vitality Living Lake Forest. I've had several incidents waiting and pushing the call button. One time, I had to wait for 40 minutes and I was on the potty seat. Another time, I waited for 3 hours before I finally pushed it enough times that somebody came. I also have had trouble getting my showers scheduled. I'm supposed to be showered twice a week and Sunday was one of those days. The first Sunday that they missed was due to a computer glitch. I asked one of the aides what was g...

My dad has been in Vitality Living Lake Forest for a week now. The price is right, and the care is excellent. Move-in was easy. The staff seems to be very pleasant. My dad loves the food. The rooms are very nice and very clean. The building is very clean. The layout is like a cruise ship. It was designed with a cruise ship in mind. They have patios, a garden, and a front porch area, they're very nice. They have activities seven days a week. They can go on outings, they have games, and they have ...

My mom was here before she passed away. The way Nick kept in touch with me and the location being closer to my family members were the reasons why we chose the place. He was very professional and very awesome every time I had a question or needed anything. I didn't have any problems or issues. He would be in touch with us, even if I left a message on his voicemail. He would call me back. Mom's a very picky person for food, and she said she enjoyed the food. When I went in to retrieve her fur...

It was very nice. The thing that I liked about them is that you can age in this place. If you need to go to assisted and then to a memory care, it's all there in the same facility. I was really impressed with that. I thought the employees seemed to care a great deal about the residents. They are all very friendly and helpful. I thought the setup was very nice too. There was enough room, but not too much room. It was very accommodating. We looked at the menu, and it looked very nice. They had a n...

I went and talked to the salesperson. She followed up with emails and calls. I also talked to the director. They were nice people. It is a nice facility. Everybody was very helpful. I was impressed with the facility. They got Memory Care as well as Assisted Living. At that particular time, they did not have any two bedrooms available. They had what they call a one bedroom deluxe, which to me still seemed awfully small for two people. I was a little bit disappointed in the size of the rooms, but ...

I toured this community and it is at the top of my list for when my mother is ready to move to a memory care facility. It was very clean and smelled good, and the residents looked happy and well-kept. There were activities going on, a musical program, and while the staff were certainly busy they were attentive to the people who lived there. The Sales director told me about the current visitation protocols due to COVID, which I understand because it is important to keep these people safe. I also ...

We visited here for my mom. It was good, and the place was very nice. We were there twice but unfortunately, we could not make it work out. But it was a good visit. The staff were phenomenal, very helpful, and pleasant. The facility was very clean and well laid out; it was a nice facility. The location is easy to get to. There was a lot of road construction, but that will go away eventually. They just had a lot going on.

Ed

We had looked at the assisted living, and they're very nice. In fact, my mother even liked it because I took her with me. It was very nice, very clean, and had very friendly people. I wouldn't have a problem living there myself. I think the room is for a single person or maybe two. For a couple, it would be great and its a good size. There was a lot of garden area around, so if the person wanted to go outside and sit under a tree. Of course with Covid, I think they've cut back on that. The rooms...

Angela

I had a very good visit. They had an enclosed outdoor area for the residents, a cafe patio, and they had more than one dining area, and I was impressed with that. They had a big rec area, they had a little chapel, and the rooms were really nice and spacious. They showed me a 1-bedroom, one was furnished, and one that's not furnished. The staff who gave me the tour was really great.

Joel

The rooms were very nice and I liked the staff. They have a couple of different activity rooms based on memory level. The place is resort-like and top quality.

My mom has been here since August. I would say the food is a good restaurant to a home-cooked meal. The rooms are very nice. Everything is within a reasonable distance. She does the exercise, the bingo, the cards, and trips out to lunch. The outdoor grounds are very nice. It has more of a nice hotel feel than a typical assisted living place.

RL1

It was very nice. The only difference was it was a little far for me to drive to go see my loved one. The place was very open and decorated very nicely. The dining room was restaurant-style. They had buses that come and go for different activities, plus they had bingo, arts and crafts, and exercises.

My parents are doing well here. I really like it. The staff is very good. They are always informing us when something is going on, if we need to take care of something, or if they need more medicine. They are always good, and they like my them too. They are in the memory care unit, and they have a small dining room. The place is very clean, and there is no bad smell.

We were very impressed, they had a movie room, a private dining room, and a library.

I have visited and I am very familiar with this facility. Actually, I have a relative that lives there. I have nothing but good things to say about it. They are extremely caring and accommodating. They are aware of the rest of the family, and they are always very friendly and welcoming to us. She is in the Alzheimer's portion of the facility, and she has a very nice accommodation. She also likes the food. The dining room has a nice size, and it is very clean. They have an activities room and a T...

My parents were in assisted living, and we were fairly happy with this facility. It was clean, and the food was good. When my parents left and I had to go back and enter their apartment, so many people stopped by, asked personally about them, and cared about them. So they really were very personally engaged in the care. We had a problem with the geriatrician who was in contact there. We were not impressed with her. I think she really put our parents' health at risk, but we ultimately had to move...

My parents were here. The facility is wonderful and I am very, very pleased. The staff are very loving, caring, and dedicated. Their rooms were very nice, spacious, and comfortable. We ate in their dining area and it was fantastic. It was one of the better ones that I have come across. They have a movie room and they do outings, poker, bingo; they do all kinds of different things. My dad is in their independent living, and my mom is in their memory care. I think she is having some difficulty wit...

I searched for several months to find a place that was right for my father in law and met my high standards. This is the ONLY ALF in the Seminole county area that met my requirements. The food is amazing and they have nice furnishings and tablecloths! My father was eating lobster and shrimp when I arrived one day and they remember his breakfast choices and bring him "the usual" when family dine with him. They have live bands and events and lots of activities and field trips. The nursing staff is...

We have our step-father here, and everything exceeds my expectations. The staff amd caregivers who work there really seem to care, and I give them the highest praise. They have many activities. I wish they had greater proximity because they are half an hour or more away.

I visited this facility when I was looking for Respite Care for my Dad while we were away. It is a beautiful place and quite large. The staff member who gave me the tour was most welcoming and very helpful. The rooms were clean and nicely furnished for those seeking a temporary stay. The activity rooms were large and lovely. Residents have a wide variety of lovely places to gather both inside and out.

My mom stayed here for a year and a half. The place is very nice. The care was good for her at that time because she was not very well, but she got to a point where she was more alert than the other people. She didn't like the food though.
