Operated by PVL at Grand Rapids, Provision Living of Forest Hills at 730 Forest Hill Avenue in Grand Rapids is a 116-bed, two-story residential community offering apartment-style housing in studio, one-, and two-bedroom configurations.

State inspections spanning 2019 to 2025 have flagged operational and procedural matters: items related to medication handling, food storage, and equipment security, plus documentation in individual care plans. In findings across this period, there’s no clear upward or downward trend.
