    My mom lived here for almost a year…read more She moved here from a private residence. We needed a spot immediately, and I feel the price reflected that need, it was very expensive, maybe unfairly so. I feel they put her in a price point higher and had assessed more care than what she truly needed, and getting that downgraded was more difficult than it needed to be. I feel part of the reason for this was some the forum was in the transition of new ownership which makes things bumpy. When she first arrived was the forum at Knightsbridge and when she left, it was the estates at Knightsbridge? To be honest, I'm not sure what the name of the place actually evolved into everybody still calls at the forum. I have since moved her out of the facility I can say that when she was in their care, her experience was good. She never was treated roughly or had any incidences that I needed to be aware of. The food seems to have gone downhill and I do not like that the assisted living across the street where she lived is not as nice of the public spaces as it is across the street for the independent care that is my biggest ripe of this place the people who need more care and pay higher cost have a lesser aesthetic in their common space and that did irritate me. I'll be up. It irritated me more than my mom. We moved her to a different company/facility not because of care or quality of care but more due to location. I do like that the forum has memory care and skilled nursing. It was a nice place for my mom, but I would explore pricing of other places when you're looking at this place, this place is good but also is expensive comparatively.

    My mom lived at the Forum for around 7 years. She transitioned from Independent Living to Memory…read moreCare during that time. We also switched to a facility in Upper Arlington for a 6 or 7 month period during that time. The people at The Forum cared for my Mom in so many ways. They went from being friends to being caretakers during her transition. I could not recommend The Forum highly enough for how they took care of Mom. We moved Mom to the facility in Upper Arlington after she broke her hip. Great physical therapy team and great facilities. But the one thing they lacked was humanity. They didn't care about Mom, just the checks my sisters and I were writing. Back to The Forum. Not the gold standard for facilities, but certainly good enough and they are upgrading constantly, but more than the Gold Standard for the assistance we received and the help from the entire staff. Mom passed a couple of weeks ago. The nurses and hospice people that took care of Mom were in tears. Genuinely. Love this place and you'll be blessed if a family member has to be there.

I arrived about 445?? pm, was almost an hour before I was even acknowledged in the room. Then it was mostly administrative, no nursing care etc. It was almost 11 pm before I got my evening meds. The room was old and Musty and triggered my asthma cough for 16 days. I asked about any kind of air purifier, they had nothing in their stock and would do nothing to accommodate my concerns. The floor was under construction adding to the chaos of getting patients to and from the dining hall. Food and Physical therapy department were the only positive sides of the facility. I could tell the aids for the permanent residents were very caring and respectful. I had days I never saw my CNA. From a business standpoint I see Wesley Glenn as a high end Independent living / assisted living facility. The skilled nursing floor was added as a way to keep their residents in house during rehab from age related issues, stroke, falls and breaks etc. I got the minimal care I was there for, my IV infusion 3x a day but that was about it. I felt as if I was a transient patient on Medicare. I sent in a letter with my concerns, never expecting any response and I was right. Not even an acknowledgement form letter.

    This facility apparently does not have qualified staff to provide the level of care of the patients…read morethey are accepting. My 53 yr old sister died there today. She'd gotten very sick two months ago, she had to have a trach and long story short, she was transferred to another facility who, had her transferred to this hell hole of a nursing home! First of all, if Arlington does not have staff around the clock who are skilled at suctioning patients with new trachs then it is ILLEGAL for them to accept a patient who's needs they can't meet! The nurse told my brother that my sister stopped breathing while she was suctioning her, this tells ME, a retired nurse in NM, that the nurse had her airway blocked much too long! Once she stopped breathing they called the paramedics who transferred her to Riverside who pronounced her. DO NOT LET THE HOSPITALS SEND YOUR LOVED ONES TO PLACES LIKE ARLINGTON! Their last survey in 2024, they had MULTIPLE nursing issues, Specialty is also at fault for not ensuring they had staff who could provide the level of care she required.

I did and then I sat in a urine soaked nightgown and bed for 6+ hours. The room was a toasty 78° and I had ask at 2pm to have it lowered. They said they would do it. Never happened. They had nothing for bed sores. And, did I mention that the lights flickered non stop. Staff said they had been that way a long time- so they put me in a room that wasn't 100%. And I wasn't alone. I heard other residents calling out. The call button was a joke. They had no oxygen for me. They had only large size depends. At one point I was told that there was no nurse or boss in the home and I believe it. They could care less about the people.

    My mother-in-law has been cared for by Friendship Village for two plus years. She's had a lot of…read moreup and downs in her medical journey but overall she has declined because of age. I've seen the daily routine of care and you can see the aids are in experienced and seem careless at times leaving her for hours of unattended checks on her for bathroom visits. This leads to her room smelling of foul smells. This is the reason local family members for not wanting to see their grandmother. I'd give five stars to of activities department. Because of the one great RN named Dawn, she should get five stars. So, that's a total of two stars for the rest of the place. For the price we pay, this place should have better aids and provide more attention vice leaving them to exist in their rooms to sit in filth.

If my aging parents lived in this state, there's nothing that would give me greater happiness and peace of mind than seeing them retire to FVD. Imagine a super cool college campus with great people, fun activities and awesome food - but NO job, responsibilities or stress whatsoever. That's what retirement living at FVD is like. You move in young, healthy and spry in your 60s and basically have the time of your life. As you get older, additional care and support is there when you need it. The new expansion they're doing, while obviously causing a bit of construction noise/mess now, is going to be AMAZING once it's complete. The Health Center (nursing home) side is wonderful too, once the time comes for that level of care. The people are great - both residents and staff. I love this place and I'm so glad I get to work with the team and residents as part of my day job!

    When my 84-year-old mother got out of the hospital after having pneumonia, she was extremely weak…read moreand bed-ridden. My adult brother and sisters hoped that we could take care of her on our own until she recovered. We soon realized that although one of us could be with her most of the time, we needed some help, not really medical help because she had visiting nurses and a visiting physician. We need a caring person who could help her get to the bedside commode, keep her hydrated and just try to make her feel better. Our wonderful sister-in-law took it upon herself to try to find caregivers that would care for our mother like us. She scoured the yellow pages and called Granny Nannies. After speaking to the owner, Heidi, she was so impressed that we set up a meeting with an aide for the very next day. We all met Paula, a retired RN, and liked her immediately. She started the next day, sitting by our mother's bedside, helping to make her more comfortable and coaxing her to eat and drink. Then, several days later, we needed help overnight because our mother was very restless and needed someone to be right there with her during the night. Although some of us were coming in from out of town and my siblings who lived there were often spending the night, we were simply not equipped to provide care during the night and then try to work during the day. So, Angelina came to be with our mother so we could sleep. After several weeks, we moved my mother to my sister's house nearby so my sister was there during the night if my mother needed her, although the aide was right there with her. My mother was slowly getting weaker and needed constant attention because she was unable to do anything for herself. Finally, we needed a third aide to be there from 3pm until 10pm to have coverage the full 24-hours a day. So, we called Heidi again and\, like before, she sent another lovely young lady to meet us. Sara began the next day and we were her first clients with Granny Nannies. She was so wonderful with our mother, sat with her and watched the old movies that our mother loved (but couldn't really see or hear too well), helped do everything she could to try to make her more comfortable. She looked up smoothie recipes online to try to come up with something "not sweet" that my mother would drink. The night before our mother died, Sara was talking to us about some candles and room sprays that might help our mother's anxiety or help her sleep better. After hearing her ideas, I immediately got online and ordered some vanilla and lavender pillow sprays that promote sleep. My mother died the next day and her Memorial Mass was a week later. Both Heidi and Sara came to the Mass to pay their respects. I and my entire family can wholeheartedly recommend Granny Nannies if you need help caring for loved ones. When I met Heidi after Mass, she said that she has an elderly mother and she would not hire anyone that she wouldn't have care for her own mother. It was very difficult for us to even consider bringing in outsiders to care for our mother and we knew she would hate having strangers in her house. But after meeting Paula, Angelina and Sara and seeing how they interacted with our mother, we thanked God that we had found them. And our mother was, too, because, weak as she was, she would take their hand and lay it against her cheek and say "thank you."

    When my 78 year old mother suffered a catastrophic stroke and entered the hospice phase, we turned…read moreto Granny Nannies for round-the-clock home care. The caregivers could not have been more professional, kind and nurturing. Russ and Heidi handpicked each aide based on experience level and personality, choosing the right fits for my mom and her level of disability. They were there for her 100% and supported our family all the way through her passing. Truly excellent and highly recommended service.
