My elderly uncle was a resident at Timber Oaks Nursing Home for about a year before passing away. He would beg routinely to be taken home, but then most residents do that. The nursing home is located across the street from a park on a large grassy lot with many paths through it that are easily wheelchair assessable. He did enjoy going out of doors to look at the small vegetable garden some of the more able people were growing. He shared a medium sized room with another man. The room usually had unused linen lying on a chair or window sill making it look sloppy. The beds were made in an "open" fashion when the resident was up making it look more hospital like than home like.The dining room was small but bright and cheery with a TV which was left on during meals. The food appeared to be adequate and he said it tasted "OK", which is a compliment since he was a picky eater.There was at times a strong odor of stale urine in the halls which I found to be unacceptable.The staff seemed kind and concerned and treated the residents with respect.
