12 Oaks Senior Living

Family member fell and was found on floor. Was put in bed without assessment even though hip was broken. Charge nurse or family not notified about fall. I seriously question staff qualifications, training, policies and procedures.

Very clean building. Really love the marketing lady. We really like the nurse makes you feel very comfortable and she is really friendly. Care staff is really good. Haven’t had a very good experience with the older lady that is apparently in charge of billing. She doesn’t seem to know what she is doing. She doesn’t return emails or phone calls. The new lady that is in charge of the building now isn’t friendly at all. One day I was in there and the way she was talking to the nurse was not professional . Hopefully they will get someone that knows what they are doing.

I lived at Emerson South Collins for almost one year and my experience at this facility was terrible. Every time that it rained, it rained in my 2nd floor apartment. They agreed to leave Sunday dinner at my apartment and I agreed to pay $5.00 for the service for the next six months. They delivered it only three times. The dining staff had a terrible attitude, except for [name removed] whom they made head of dining service. Perhaps things are better now. The quality of the meals was poor. Turkey pot pie sounds great until you ate it and it had few vegetables and was bean based with two pieces of meat and plenty of beans in it. The deserts were minuscule In size. I hear that they have cut back to two meals now. The social director quit. They asked a staff person to head up the position after 5 months and the program went from none to bad. The staff are pleasant. [name removed], in maintenance, is like a bull in a China shop. He came to fix a leak under my bathroom sink. I guess he spilled something under the sink and used my good matching hand towel and took it. After their trying to replace it with an inferior quality of towel, I left with the front desk the matching cloth. It disappeared. After 2 months, I replaced it and they did give me rent credit for it. Next, [name removed] came in and thinking the water was coming in from a bad air-conditioner. I walked in and he was cleaning up the broken pieces of 5 out of 10 ornamental glass cat figurines which my daughter had given me for my birthday. There was no way to replace them and so I was just out. I then again told him that the water was coming from the window. The window was never fixed. I told the manager that I felt that they had broken the contract and that I was moving out. The new manager was kind enough to not charge me for two months rent.

Yesterday, the management decided that it would be a reasonable, compassionate thing to do to inform their elderly residents that their DINNER MEAL will be eliminated in 4 FOUR days. These residents pay over $[removed] a month and all of the contracts they signed say meals are included. This is one of the strongest marketing points of the community. How can you eliminate a dinner meal when there are no stoves in the units. Also, over 65% of the residents do not drive nor have transportation. This is assinine and unbelievable. I get corporate bottom lines but do a utilization study, you will see that breakfast would make more sense. But dinner, for elderly folks. Doesn't make sense. I found this community from A place for mom, and you all should remove them from the search engine.

My mom had a fall at Emerson and broke her hip. After that, she declined and passed away a few weeks later. I had to pay for the following month, even though I gave Emerson a heads up about the situation. There was no flexibility with management at all. I was very unhappy with how they handled things.

I didn't care for the community during the tour. The tour guides were nice. It felt the residents weren't as engaged as we wanted for our loved ones. During the tour it felt hot in the community and they had fans trying to keep the residents cool.

Started out well enough but over time constant staff turnover with non-experienced people who were giving poor care. NO administrative oversite of care or staff.

I think that it needs to stop being promoted as an active adult lifestyle facility because it is not. It is between a nursing home and assisted living. A lot of the residents here need way more care, I would say about 65% of them. I feel like part of sold a bill of goods. I would encourage people to do lots of research for wherever you go and do not go by yelp or all of the other reviews, because a lot of times they ware not done by the individual who is actually living there. The website shows that it was remodeled but it was not, only one part was and that was due to ice damage.

High staff turnover, cannot get resolution to any problems.

Moved my parents out after 6 weeks of lockdown during Covid (no residents had Covid, employees did), meals skipped during the lockdown. Told several times that my parents were not "on the list to receive food delivered" The entire facility was on food delivery due to Covid. Facility ran out of food! Staff would walk in to check vitals on my healthy parents 3 times a day, starting at 6:30 am! Lack of respect for privacy. Our family spoke to the administrator multiple times. They were apologetic and nice nothing changed. Don't be fooled by the beautiful pictures on their website. The food is the worst! ALWAYS cold and many times unrecognizable. We showed the food to one of the administrators who responded, "well I'm not surprised." Poor mismangement by admin. Meadows borders on elder abuse because of overly strict "corporate" guidelines to keep residents in their rooms at all time, not even allowing them to check mail. The Haven in St. George - locally owned and no corporate rules.

We did not have a good experience with this community. The staff members were not encouraging so she never got out of her bed. The convenience of the facility was good, the problem was that they kept changing personnel and every time I got familiar with the owners and staff they would sell it to someone else and it would all change. We also had a lot of issues with communication. I would advise people looking here to strongly maintain control of your loved ones money and not just turn it over to them.

Bad experience!! I had my mom there recently for 3mos and she died while lying on the floor. She had called for help by pushing the nurse button and nobody came. They found her hours later. This senior living is not a safe place and staff is non caring and also management. They have a nonchalant attitude. State needs to come and investigate this senior facility.

This community was great in the beginning. However, over time the customer service, resident care and communication from their management has decreased tremendously. Unfortunately this facility does not care about the residents, only their bottom line for profits. I would not recommend this facility for any family looking for a safe and secure place for their loved one. Currently does not have a full time director, nurse or receptionist which all positions have been filled with temporary and inexperienced people. Resident and facility staff turnover is also very high for these same reasons. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else in the area. Beware of this place !!!!

Some very unfriendly upfront office staff

Walked into chaos after having difficulty finding entrance. "Apartment Building" feel as apposed to 'Home'.

Administrator is rude! Doesn’t even know her families by name or sight most of the time. I have seen her treat her workers with disrespect. There must be a better way.

Legacy Ranch Memory Care Community was not a good choice for our parents. We decided to move our parents after only 1 week there because it was more of a skilled nursing care atmosphere as the residents were in a more advanced stage of dementia and there was not any real interaction whatsoever.

I am not impressed and actually very upset with how things went at this community. My mom wanted to try out this property before she had made the final decision to move in for a seven day test trial it was going to cost us over eight hundred dollars. Well after the first night there she had decided it was not for her and she would not be moving in at all. The staff would not refund her any of the money when she spent only twenty four hours in there. I think that is absolutely sneaky and not right. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

[Removed] is the worst example of a professional I have ever seen. Do not expect a return phone call even if your mom is on hospice. Don't expect to just drop in on her either. You will wait outside her office until she feels like blessing you with her presence. Her staff are not like her. Thank God. It is disturbing she is their leader though. I have emailed, called and stopped by. It is a constant job to try and get a response from her. When you do, its like you've asked for the world to stop spinning. She will tell you a family is difficult or high maintenance if they ask anything of her. So all is fine if you ask for nothing. I cannot move my mom or I would. There are other families who feel exactly like me, but worry about [Removed] retaliation. Because there would be some. She is just the type. The owners and rest of staff seem very good. Not always, but most days, that makes it worth it. If I would have known what [Removed] was before, I would have went to another community that might not have been as clean or food as good just to deal with a nurse I knew actually cared about my mom. Because I know [Removed] doesn't care about my mom.

This community was the best until new management arrived on the scene. Previously, the employees were extremely caring and competent, but new management is either running them off or firing them. The excellent executive director left August, 2015. Now the activities director, the RN, the cook, the medication aide, and many caring employees are either gone or will be soon. MANAGEMENT IS RUINING THIS COMMUNITY!
