I toured Juniper Village at Forest Hills early one morning while searching for a community for our Mom. When I walked through the doors I was immediately greeted by a sweet woman at the front desk who was chatting with residents as if they were family. Country Roads was playing and there were at least 15 residents singing along - and this was before 10 am! The community was clean, the tour was lovely. I could see Mom living there. While Juniper Village at Forest Hills was the best choice for me, Mom ultimately ended up moving closer to friends/family in Florida. I wouldu recommend and would consider this as an option for myself down the line.
Comfortable and welcoming. I love the holiday celebrations and decorations, the lovely grounds, the social media posts, and the ease of talking to staff (especially our new Exec Director). My father feels safe and is content…and he enjoys his meals and interactions with the dining room staff.
I have nothing but positive things to say about Juniper Village and their staff here. I am grateful that my grandparents, Bill and Dorothy Fisher, were able to spend the last several years of their life here being well cared for.

I just wanna say that there was a chili contest in the community and my FAVORITE chili was made by this business. The Cajun beef sausage and shrimp chili was AMAZING. I wish they sold it at the restaurant because I would DEVOUR it.
They were very well staffed and possibly overstaffed, which was reflected in their prices. The place is beautiful and looks like a resort hotel. The Head Nurse was great and could even be reached by the staff after hours. The Admissions lady, [name removed], was incredible. They also had a nice bistro with snacks for the residents. The food was okay most days. My one pet peeve, which happened to our family and another family that we got to know, is that they have meetings which we didn't know about and weren't invited to during which it was determined that our family members in needed a higher level of care which resulted in an increase in their monthly fees. We received the news in a form letter which didn't even explain the reason for the need for increased care or the accompanying increase in costs. I talked to our mom's caregivers who all said that they hadn't noticed any increase in the amount of care needed.
We toured Juniper Village at Forest Hills. The room was very big and clean, and the people were very nice. The staff was very nice and accommodating, and they have a craft area.
Overall, it was a good place. The lack of communication with the Director [name removed] was the biggest problem during our time there. Paying [fee removed] a month should at least entitle the family to be kept in the loop and contacted personally, not in a form letter which didn't even say why the increase in cost and the level of care was necessary. That was VERY disappointing! I talked to her nurses to find out what had changed, but none of them knew why she needed a higher level of care. They then also retroactively raised the cost of her care to charge additional money for the month that had already been paid for! The only other issue we had was one of the female dining room workers scolding us for not seating my mom at her "assigned" table. I was only yelled at one time, but it has happened 2 or 3 times to my sister and her husband. I must say that the Admissions person [name removed], the Head Nurse [name removed] and one of my mom's nurses [name removed]were incredible, extremely kind, extremely caring, extremely compassionate and a pleasure to deal with.
Juniper Village of Forest Hills has proved to be the correct place for my brother to reside at this time. My family and I have had nothing but positive experiences. My brother enjoys his accommodations, food service, daily group activities and the care he has been provided. Every day the entire staff shows friendliness, kindness, and compassion when caring for my brother and the other residents. Overall it has been a positive experience.
