Staff is friendly and our dad seems to be content.<br>My only complaint is the very sloppy dress code.
- Cassidy Kimbley ★★★★★ December 3, 2025
I’ve been to over 100 facilities across the country, this is one of the best ones I have visited. Staff are friendly, helpful and genuinely care for the residents here. It’s clean, well kept, and the Administrator, Todd, and Director of Nursing, Tess, were well informed and aquatinted with all of their residents, which is not something you see often. The residents were all happy and interacted with every one, and are involved in the many activities they have here. Overall a fantastic facility, I would not hesitate to place a loved one here.

I was visiting a family member and had a disappointing experience with Nurse Donna. She was rude and unprofessional—not just in how she interacted with us, but also in how she spoke to her coworkers. I understand that everyone has tough days, but there are still ways to communicate with kindness and maintain professionalism. I hope this is addressed to ensure a more respectful and supportive environment for patients and staff alike.

Everyone I have visited during the last several years is enjoying life at Lake Forest, formerly Good Samaritan. Nice staff, clean facility, plenty of activities.

The social worker Lisa was very unprofessional an could not communicate. She slammed the door in my face an it's very hard to get any of the staff available like they are very delusional. Was glad to get dad out of there.

About this data
How to read this page
Star ratings vs. Care Quality Score: The Google star rating reflects visitor and family opinions collected from public reviews. The Care Quality Score is an independent metric derived entirely from federal inspection data — the two measure different things, and comparing them side-by-side gives a fuller picture.
Where this data comes from
All clinical data on this page originates from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the federal agency that certifies and inspects every Medicare- and Medicaid-participating nursing home in the United States. Reviews are imported verbatim from public Google business listings.
What to do next
Data is a starting point, not a final answer. We encourage families to visit facilities in person, observe daily routines, and speak with staff and residents. See our guide: Questions to Ask When Visiting →
