My Dad was there for such a short time we did not get very acquainted with the staff. Those we did interact with were very friendly and helpful.
What we like the most about Fairforest Grove is the friendly staff who appear to know our loved one and recognize us each time we visit; appears to be taking care of our loved one; cleanliness; different activities offered. Price went up which may be a challenge.
