Overview of Discovery Village at the Forum

Independent living, assisted living, and memory care are the three levels Discovery Village at the Forum offers in Fort Myers, FL. Its neighborhood is The Forum.

Independent living is for someone who wants the community’s services without any daily care. Dressing, bathing, and medication are what assisted living staff help with, and the apartment still belongs to the resident. Memory care is the most protected of the three, with supervision in a secured setting for a resident who might wander. A resident whose needs grow can change levels here rather than change communities.

Short respite stays are also possible, and pets are allowed. Julia M. Torres is administrator on behalf of the operator Britton (Forum) LLC.

Poolside cabanas give residents time outdoors, and there is a bistro and a movie theater as well. Dimensions Health & Fitness is the fitness program. Connections transportation handles scheduled rides for planned outings. The 150 beds are in residences with one- or two-bedroom units.

The accepted payers here are CHAMPUS and insurance and/or HM makes two of them. Medicaid is the third, for a family whose savings won’t reach the cost of a long stay. Veteran Affairs Benefits is the fourth option, and it may work for an eligible veteran or their surviving spouse.

Overview of Page Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center

Page Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center is a nursing home offering skilled nursing, memory care and respite care in Fort Myers, Florida. Skilled nursing and long-term care provide licensed nursing support for ongoing medical needs, with 24-hour staffing keeping staff available overnight as well as during the day.

Memory care offers a secured, supervised setting for residents with cognitive impairment who may be at risk of wandering. Rehabilitation services support short-term recovery at the center, avoiding the need to arrange transportation to a separate therapy location, while respite care provides a temporary stay when a regular caregiver needs to travel, recover or take a break. Having several care levels in one community may be a good fit for someone whose needs could change over time, since care arrangements can shift within the facility when clinically appropriate and available.

The center has 180 beds. This makes it a larger setting with more residents and staff rather than a small residence. Occupancy is 94%, so most beds are in use and families may want to ask about current admission availability and waitlist status. Total nurse staffing is 4 hours and 34 minutes per resident per day, which represents the facility-wide amount of nursing time across residents rather than guaranteed one-to-one care for each person.

Page Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center accepts Medicare, Medicaid and private pay. Medicare can cover qualifying short-term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid may help eligible residents whose savings cannot cover long-term care, and private pay uses personal funds. A Walk Score of 37 out of 100 identifies a car-dependent setting where most errands require a car or ride, so residents who do not drive will need transportation for off-site errands.
