How we see Forestview Retirement Residence

One unique aspect of Forestview is a monthly residents' meeting, where your opinion gets heard on issues like upcoming events, as well as any other suggestions you have. That extra personal attention is seen also in the care options available. There are regular services like laundry and medication management, of course, but Forestview goes beyond that. For example, you can create your own personalized care plan that meets your specific needs, adding a la carte services as you require.

Downsview, Willowdale and North York seniors find the option of pure elegance in Forestview Retirement Residence. This is a community that takes its interest in your needs and concerns to a whole new level. The community offers a continuum of care from independent to assisted living to memory care, coupled with luxurious care that includes unique daily dining experiences, and a bistro and juice bar.

Management of health care is, of course, a central concern, and inside, you'll find registered health care practitioners, as well as assistance with activities of daily living. This community also welcomes post-surgery and other short stays. For all that, no words can capture the peace of mind and personal warmth you'll find in this community. Opened in 2017, this community combines experience and completely contemporary values in construction and design to create a happy, fresh environment. Forestview meets seniors' needs, certainly, but seeks to enhance your life beyond any expectations you might have.

The food, offered both in the dining room and in my dad's room, is delicious. The extra care provided for my dad is gentle, sensitive and personal. He feels very cared for, which ..."

"My late husband and I chose Forestview as we thought this is the best one after visiting a lot of places. Living here for 5 years now, I can say that Forestview is a nice and a friendly environment. The view of the grounds is beautiful, quiet, well paved and with lots of beautiful birds on the trees. The staff are very approachable, personable and if they're new, they always take the time to know us by name. There's lots of activities to promote our brain health and to really help preserve both ..."

At all times we must follow the guidelines set forth by the local provincial health authority. In many cases we implement safety initiatives before the governments mandates them. While we pride ourselves on doing everything we can to keep our communities safe, it does alter the way we connect with the outside community.
