We're moving my mother into the Washington Oakes. It's a wonderful community. There are seniors of all ages. There are lots of activities for them to do. They provide shuttles for doctors' appointments and groceries. It's just a very welcoming community. I've been working with Claudia and she made the transition very easy. She was very accessible, answered all my questions, and was extremely helpful.

We found Washington Oakes for my brother. It has an excellent reputation and reasonable pricing. They're absolutely outstanding. There's very low staff turnover, so they have been there for an awfully long time. They have an outstanding director and medical staff and the best chef on the West Coast. All meals are prepared from scratch on-site so the food is just outstanding; anybody who stays there will tell you that. Their transportation services are great.

My mom was at Washington Oakes for one year. It was clean and very pretty. It was an old elementary school that they turned into an assisted living. My mom liked it, but she was no longer able to give her own insulin, and they didn't provide that service. The rooms were older, but they were nice. The staff was wonderful. Food was good. The activities were good. They had concerts, seasonal activities, game nights, and craft classes. The value was fair market value.

Washington Oakes Retirement Community was really nice and beautiful, but for me personally the financial part didn?t work out. My son also really liked it. The way they had eating was like in a restaurant, and you had more choice. You could go in when it wasn't mealtime and get snacks, which was really nice. The people were really nice.

I visited Washington Oakes and met two people on staff. They were really nice and somewhat knowledgeable, but the grounds looked old school, like an old brick building. It seemed fine, though. It is in a residential neighborhood within a block or two from the hospital. If you needed easy access to a medical center, you could walk there. There is a cancer center right there too, so for somebody with cancer, that would be fantastic. However, Washington Oakes didn’t seem like they provide much care, so if you needed more care, I don’t think you would go there. They did have a nurse on staff. They had set meal times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

My mom knew it was time, so she quit driving and moved into Washington Oakes. I think it'll be good for her. They have plenty of activities, all the cooking is taken care of, they provide cleaning services like changing of beddings. And transportation around town is taken care of so she can get to and from her doctor's appointments. There's also an emergency call station.
