The rooms are very dark and outdated with ragged bed linens.

The rooms are very dark and outdated. Cleaning is erratic.

We've been to the Good Samaritan Society - Lake Forest Village. It was a very, very thorough tour. We told her what we were interested in. We had already requested brochures so that we could see what types of homes they had. And she found one of the residents who was willing to let us look at their apartment and everyone was very friendly. It was in a quiet, peaceful area, and independent living is actually what we're looking at. They have cottages and apartments, and they also have what they call twin homes, their duplexes with garages. She had an adorable little dog with her, she was very sweet, very thorough, very willing to answer questions, and explained everything really well. We did not go into the dining area. We just walked past it. It was too early for lunch, and it was large. It was well-appointed. The buildings are older. It's not a new facility. It's an older facility. But it looked well-kept. We looked at the apartment that we ran into. The appliances are older there, but they were roomy. One of them is actually as big as one of the houses I had at one time. And there are a lot of trees, there were cottages up and down the streets all through the trees. They have an exercise room. It had a lot of equipment. They had a chair volleyball court that looked like a lot of fun where you could play volleyball sitting in a chair. They had a great library that was, and the library was large. And they have a big meeting room where you can have a private event like a baby shower or something, like if your granddaughter got married or something. It had everything we wanted. A lot of walking areas for my husband. He walks a lot.

Shortly after I moved into Good Samaritan Society - Lake Forest Village, there was a big mishap at my apartment. The current facilities manager didn't want to investigate why this happened, and he wanted me to pay for the repairs. They can't keep the cable service on the TV running. Channels are off today after they've installed new equipment. There is a dining room here, but you either have to buy a ticket for your meals or put it on your monthly bill with the rent. Activities are going on here every day. There's a library, a gym, and laundry machines on each floor. There are a lot of trees around and there's a lake on the property.

The staff is always ready to discharge patients as soon as possible, before they are ready to go home. The Medical Director and her nurse practitioner care very little for their patients.

My mother-in-law moved into Good Samaritan Society - Lake Forest Village. It's very well kept and the staff is very friendly. They have a lot of different options available in terms of living in a cottage versus an apartment, so that's nice. It gave her some options. It has transportation if she needs it, and activities. There's a lot to like about the facility. They offer the chapel, crafting, playing cards, gardening, and some of her general interests. She made a comment about the food and she enjoys it. She's in a two-bedroom apartment and it's perfect. It's a nice layout. It gave her an office craft space. That was a good option, and it's a nice little living area. They call her by name. She received a nice welcome to the community gift, which she appreciated. They work to get her connected, and they are really responsive to any maintenance needs or anything that she has (so far, minimal), but anything she has ran across, they have been very quick to respond. It's a great facility. I would definitely recommend it to others who are looking for similar living arrangements.
