Forest Trace Senior Living stands on 73 acres of protected Cypress Preserve, with walking trails, wildlife, and a 30-acre lake, so residents get to enjoy leveled paths and plenty of natural views, and the whole community is gated for safety and peace of mind, which seems to help many feel at home. The community offers a range of living options, including independent living, assisted living, memory care for those with Alzheimer's and dementia, 55+ senior apartments, nursing and rehabilitation, adult day care, home health care, and flexible stays like snowbird rentals and respite care, so there's help for both long-term and short-term needs. Apartments come in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts, and you get either a private unit or the option to share, with every one having a full kitchen, private bathroom, washer and dryer, screened patio or terrace, and emergency call system, and the rooms are pet-friendly too, so you don't have to leave a beloved animal behind.
The staff provides compassionate, respectful, and individualized care, trying to promote each resident's dignity and independence while having safety features like grab bars, roll-in showers, emergency systems, and options to age in place, and with a part-time nurse, on-site skilled nursing, medication reminders, physical and occupational therapy, and hospice available, health care gets handled right on campus. Daily living assistance includes help with dressing, hygiene, housekeeping, laundry, and linen services, all tailored around each resident's needs, plus a housecleaning team works to keep apartments tidy and comfortable.
Dining at Forest Trace centers around restaurant-style service, with two gourmet meals per day, snacks as needed, and an open dining room available all day, and guests can join meals or residents can get meal delivery to their apartment, so there's flexibility depending on what somebody wants, and complimentary transportation is available for shopping, errands, or medical appointments.
