  I would not recommend bringing any loved one to this facility? They did not take care of my cousin. He was there from March until August. They did not take care of his bed sores were horrible on his backside, his elbow. And they released him looking like that! Please do not if you love you your family or friends I would not recommend zero out of 10.

  Visited my friend twice recuperating at this rehab facility. Overall, it is a professional place that values patients and their security. The staff seem to be kind and respectful to the patients.

  As I walked into Oakland Healthcare every single person who I saw made me feel welcomed. People did not just smile they would say hello and say have a good day. I was blown away. I have been in many skilled nursing/ sub acute care communities and I have never experienced such a warm feeling as I walked the halls. The place was bright and tastefully decorated. Now, the only cons I would say is the large outdoor patio had no tables, no chairs , no umbrellas, no plants. It could use all those things and a water feature would make this place perfect. I have been around these communities all my life. My Mother was an administrator for a few in her career, so I have seen many places from behind the scenes. This place is a gem!

  My grandma had a private room and it was nice having staff that spoke Spanish. The place was very clean and everyone was so friendly.

  I went to visit my mom and wasn't too pleased. The phone in her room wasn't working and they didn't know....well, she's been there a week. That's something that should be checked before EVERY new patient/resident comes in. Also, her water container was damn near empty and it's been hot these last few days. Also no one came to the room to 'check' on the residents, my mom nor her roommate, the whole time we were there and we were there an hr. This was just my first visit so hopefully this was just a fluke🤔

  If you or your loved one needs nursing home care or a rehab stay while recovering from surgery or illness, you can tell from my rating what my overall recommendation would be. As with any facility, take a tour first. Don’t stay at this facility (or any) after only speaking to marketing or admissions staff. Visit in person and insist on seeing more than the lobby, which is nicely decorated and comfortable. I stayed at this facility as I was recovering from a neurological illness. If you must stay here, make sure your room is either close to the nursing station or on the wing close to the therapy gym. Do not take a room close to the kitchen. The 4-person rooms close to the kitchen and the common restroom in the hallway are drastically different than the 2-person rooms with the restroom within the room in other parts of the facility. Physical, occupational and speech therapies are available. Therapists and therapy aides are proficient, encouraging and friendly. However, those with illnesses or disabilities that cause a sensitivity to noise might find the gym a challenging place when there are several people having therapy sessions. The gym is small and can get very noisy. Finally, if you stay here during warm weather, take advantage of sunny nursing home patios and convenient proximity to restaurants and Starbucks.

  I have been disappointed in the care provided. My husband spent 45 minutes sitting in his own waste and the nurses would not help even after two requests for clean up. Two nursing assistants came in, but said, sorry, he's not our patient. His room was grim, with barely room for 4 patients, and a window that was almost always shuttered, and a broken florescent light above his head. The food was mediocre and he would often not eat it, and lost over 15+ pounds during his stay. Also, during one particular episode, the staff grabbed his arm so hard it left a gashes that needed wound care. The junior staff seem poorly trained (and probably poorly paid). I can't recommend this facility to anyone.

  I wish zero stars had been an option..... RUN, do not walk, away from this facility. My mother-in-law needed rehabilitation after her surgery, and though this place looked shabby, we could find no other beds available locally. The "care" was shoddy at best, dangerous at worst. Prescribed medications were not administered, while tranquilizers which had not been prescribed obviously were. The doctor who attended her seemed incompetent and appeared to be suffering from dementia himself, as he was unable to understand anything we said or make himself understood. He looked and dressed like one of the more unfortunate residents, which we mistook him for when he wandered uncertainly into the room. In fact, he was so elderly and frail that at one point while standing with us, he began falling over into my wife, and she had to catch him and help him to his feet. If this sounds unbelievable, it was to us also. We had to take over much of her care. She was supposed to be receiving assistance with walking; there is a room with exercise and rehab equipment, but we never saw anyone using it, though we were there every day for over 2 months. My mother-in-law was in a wheelchair against her doctor's orders every time we arrived, and we had to help her get some walking practice. They lost many items of her clothing, though we had written her name in them; she never appeared in her own clothes after the first week. She presented with unexplained bruises, smelled and looked horrible, never was clean or had brushed teeth unless we did it during visits. My wife began to visit at different times during the day, and often found her asleep in bed with the blinds drawn. We often came just after dinner to find a full plate of uneaten food, with no one monitoring the fact that she hadn't eaten anything, and then someone would come for the tray. This may not have been such a bad thing, as I cannot describe how much like dog food some of the more unrecognizable food was. The worst part was that, out of concern for her welfare, we still had to be friendly with the uncompassionate and rude staff, especially one of the managers, Anna, who repeatedly assured us that my mother-in-law's stay was completely covered and that she would let us know the minute insurance coverage ran out, yet presented us with a large bill the day we went to pick my mother-in-law up, believing everything to have been covered. In what was supposed to be a restful place to recover, my mother-in-law's dementia and ability to walk worsened considerably, probably from inactivity. I would not let my dog stay in this place.
