The Forum at Lincoln Heights delivers three distinct levels of care—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care—so residents can remain on the same campus even if their needs evolve. Licensed nurses are on-site around the clock and coordinate closely with physicians, therapists, and hospice providers to manage chronic conditions, supervise medications, and respond to emergent issues. For individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, the secured Memory Care neighborhood is designed to minimize confusion and provide a safe setting that reduces wandering risks both day and night.
Beyond the core care levels, the community offers a wide array of clinical services on-site, including speech, occupational, and physical therapy; podiatry; optometry; and dental visits. Staff members are trained in advanced dementia techniques and provide incontinence care, diabetic monitoring, and ambulatory support. Residents who need help with bathing, dressing, eating, or toileting can receive hands-on assistance, and transfers are accommodated whether a person uses a walker, wheelchair, or simply needs standby supervision with a one-person assist. Hospice and respite services are available, and family counseling is offered to guide loved ones through changing health situations.
Living options range from studio apartments to larger residences with kitchenettes or full kitchens, and some floor plans include balconies, terraces, or patios. Select units come with washer-dryer hookups, fireplaces, or direct access to landscaped gardens and walking paths, while all have basic utilities and cable TV included; telephone and internet can be arranged separately. Wheelchair-accessible showers, individual climate control, and Wi-Fi are standard, but not every accommodation contains every feature, so it’s advisable to confirm specific details during a tour.
Dining is flexible and health-focused. Residents can choose restaurant-style meals, family-style tables, or all-day grab-and-go service. A professional chef prepares options that cover standard, low-sodium, no-sugar, vegetarian, vegan, kosher-style, gluten-free, and other allergen-controlled menus. Guests are welcome for meals, and a bar-style venue offers light fare and beverages. Special diets are monitored in coordination with nursing staff to align with medical needs such as diabetes management.
Daily life is bolstered by an activity center, fitness and Live Well programs, arts and crafts studios, a library and computer lounge, and an indoor walking path that complements the outdoor trails and swimming pool. Residents can join clubs, attend educational speakers, volunteer with community service groups, and participate in on-site and off-site social outings. Celebrations such as birthday parties, live dance or theater performances, and other scheduled events help foster a sense of community and engagement.
