The staff at Oak Gardens Place was exceptional. They were extremely professional and extremely friendly. Tony, the Community Director, was amazing. You could tell he had a lot of experience. He wanted to find out things about my mom, her likes and stuff, right away. He spent a lot of time with her. He just did a great job. They had an exercise class, and they had a library there. Tony just knew people that like to do the same things as my mom and he's going to set her up with them to do crafts, sewing, and music. It's an excellent place. It's just too expensive for us. Otherwise, that would be the place we would like her to go, but it just didn't work out.

Oak Gardens Place has good transportation access. It's one block from the bus stop and my brother could walk to that. It is our favorite right now. The only thing we don't like about it is the rooms are pretty small and they seem to have a lot of staffing transition. The manager checks in with me every two to three months and we talk and update. They were very courteous and attentive. The rooms were nice, the facility was clean, and they have home cooking there. The meals were great. They had us dine there and the food was good. We liked the staff that we talked to. Though there were some changes in staffing, the changes have been fine. We've already met the current head and we like him. He was my favorite one there. He wasn't the director of the whole center, but he was the director of sales and he was attentive to my brother's needs. He seemed to get what we needed and try to give us more information about those particular details. The facility was new, well kept, clean, and modern. They had nice group rooms and amenities. They had a piano and my brother likes to play the piano. They had a nice bright dining room with lots of windows where the people could look outside and in the summer, they have things going on outside, like little gardening projects and things like that. He would enjoy that a lot. A lot of the food is cooked in the facility. Communication is very good. They follow up pretty often with me, and they're always very courteous. The cleanliness was very good, and the residents can get extra help with that, too. They've been really good about checking in with us.

I liked Oaks Garden Place, but I didn't think the amount of assistance would be enough for my mom there. She's borderline between assisted living and memory care, and I didn't think that would be enough care for her. I did a tour of it, and the staff called me a couple of times. I thought he was very, very good. They offered meals, they had laundry, and they had a patio area.

Wonderful and caring staff/team. Was an ideal home for my Mother.

Oak Gardens Place was okay, but we didn't choose it because it was larger, and they didn’t have any openings. The staff seemed very friendly and helpful. The activities were similar to most of the places we visited, and a number of them were helpful. The dining room was very open, it looked very large, and was very nice.

Oak Gardens Place was fine. The staff was good. The lady who gave us the tour was very friendly. However, the place wasn't a good fit for my dad. They did have an elevator, but the stairs were open, and I'm afraid that that would be something my dad would try to use. The room wasn't nearly as nice as the place where he currently lives.
