“Fair Haven is this best. My mother is an resident there and I am highly satisfied with her care. The workers and management is very professional and kind. There is no other place I would rather have my mom at. I highly recommend any family that needs care to visit Fair Haven. Love it”

★★★★★Wendy Havro · 2024-06-04 · via Google
“I recently just had a friend to come out of Fair Haven of Forest City. She was in there for rehab after getting out of the hospital. The facility was very clean, the employees seemed really nice and helpful when needed. Also she had a wound, that the wound staff did their best keeping an eye on it and dressing everyday to help it heel faster. We were very pleased with the care she received.”

★★★★★Kimberly Campbell · 2024-05-30 · via Google
“My mother in law is at Fairhaven. The staff treat her like family and as if she is their own! Not a day goes by when they aren’t doing something special for her. We rest easy when we aren’t there because we know she’s receiving the best care possible!!”
