The Forum at Park Lane

This is my dad's second stay at the Bentley. I moved him out the first time to have him closer to home but guess what he's back at the Bentley again. He loves it there, the staff is very friendly and very helpful. He enjoys the food there a lot better than the last place that he was at. He was happy to be with some old friends from his previous stay and to make new friends. He thoroughly enjoys the happy hours on Friday. I enjoy being there with him so I can meet his friends and we all have a great time together. I would definitely recommend this community to anyone who is looking for a super place to live.

I have an aunt who has aged out of the day to day upkeep of her current home. I have been exploring living options around Dallas that would offer her an independent environment with a community, no upkeep, and eyes on her just in case. When I came by the Forum I was lucky enough to meet Zan and she was awesome! She showed me around, gave me the overview of the living spaces and answered all of my questions. The accommodations are lovely and the residents seem very well taken care of. I feel like I have a true understanding of independent living and I feel much more comfortable talking to my aunt about the possibility of moving. Thank you Zan for making me feel comfortable and the time you spent with me! It really was a great experience!

The NUMBER ONE criteria for a place for my mother to live - even more than first class tangibles (like The Forum has) — is the Heart of the Staff and the Staff’s Leader. Here, the Forum gets 10-Stars, not just 5. My parents moved to the Forum in 2013. My Dad passed away in 2017. My mother has continued and continues to thrive and flourish - and enjoy life and living - at The Forum, now 9 later and almost 13 years since first moving there. EVERY member of the The Forum’s Staff - the Executive Director, Sonia Nix, and the front office, the Receptionists, the Executive Chef, Paul Glassman (who is a world class chef and consistently provides top quality dinning) and the dinning room staff, the activities, lifestyle and well-being staff, the limousine drivers, house cleaning staff,Maintenance staff, Security staff, “Happy Hands” assistance staff, the Ageility physical therapists on site, the Salon on site, are Angels who do what they do as a Calling… THEY are the heart and soul and fabric of The Forum. They care personally about each resident. And they also care about and are welcoming and attentive to residents’ family members (and as a result, we know and love ‘em all). A lady from another top institution of excellence once told me that before considering anyone for employment, she first talks to them by telephone. “If I can’t feel their smile over the phone, I tell them this isn’t the place for them”. And so it is especially as to Heart) for The Forum. My experience is likewise for the other residents at The Forum. They are friendly, welcoming, genuine… no pretentiousness. My mother has made many, many dear friends at The Forum, who - along with The Forum’s Staff - enrich her life daily. My mother has always been wise. Never more so than when she selected The Forum.

This place was so beautiful and the faculty is incredible. Zan was our sale representative! She was incredible at acknowledging and anticipating needs for my mother! She knew what she was talking about, and seemed well versed and experienced in caring for our elderly! She explained the process, layouts, pricing, and extinguished any worries and anxiety I had! My mom is new to living in a facility and this is by FAR our favorite we have looked at mainly because of our how easy it was to work her.
