Oakwood Village Assisted Living

At Oakwood Village the memory care workers have a special gift dealing with their patients. Some dementia patients get mean with their mouths at times but the workers continue loving them daily. I like how the workers will fill us in on what's going on with our loved one whether it's good or bad. We were told by a nursing home staff that my MIL could never go into an assisted living. Was she ever wrong! In my opinion Oakwood Village is MUCH BETTER than a nursing home...happier workers at Oakwood Village who really care....the cost of assisted living is half the price of a nursing home (with better care).. Thank you A PLACE FOR MOM for directing us to Oakwood Village! Your ads are 100% true!! THANK YOU!

Oakwood Village was warm and welcoming to my mom. The staff were upbeat and helpful during the transition. This includes the aides, nurses, and housekeeping staff. The residents are happy and very friendly. The overall atmosphere is great. Mom loves the food and the staff are very accommodating when she chooses to eat in her room at times. The activities are entertaining with routine outings available to the residents. Mom continually says that if you need to live in assisted living then this is the place to be.

The staff and residents are very nice and they would be happy with Oakwood Village. It's a place I would recommend to others. We picked this community, because of the friendliness of staf and cost.

I would recommend it. Some of that's the location - it's very convenient to where I live. It's an older facility, but it's well maintained. They seem to be well organized. It is assisted living, and not a nursing facility, so understand that going in. They have hospice located there if it gets to that point, which is a nice feature. They have amenities that cost extra, like a nurse to administer medication if you need it. They have haircuts in the beauty salon available, and the food is great. My loved ones go on and on about the food. It's not a big place, so there's a not a lot of people. With the staff they have, they do a great job. I have no complaints. If it was a newer place, great, with more staff, great But that would be any place you go. I've been very pleased with it. I have one loved one in assisted living, and another in memory care, and they're both doing as well as can be expected. The activities are more arts and crafts, which I don't know what other options they would have. They have bingo, and upcoming holiday celebrations for Cinco de May and Mother's Day. I wish my mother especially would get more involved in the activities, but she's not an artsy person. And again, I wouldn't know what else to recommend though. But my loved ones have been doing well there. Oakwood's communication is really good too. So many problems are averted because either they will let me know of an issue, or I call them and they jump right on it. They've been really good at that, which has been wonderful for me. They've always treated me like I'm the only one who goes there, and I've been really happy having my family members there.
