Oaks Senior Living

Beautiful location but we live on one island and they are on another. Might be to difficult for us to get to her in emergency from our location. Wish it had worked out for us. No complaints

I toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The facility was well kept and clean, and all of the staff I met seemed friendly and professional. We ended up selecting another community, but this is somewhere I would have considered as an option for my loved one.

Overall I think they do a good job at Dogwood Forest of Alpharetta. The facility is clean and well kept, and for the most part the staff is friendly and helpful. I really have no complaints, things have gone very well since my loved one moved in!

Beautiful facility, very clean, open, bright, and the staff seemed very nice. Lots of activities to keep residents busy and engaged.

Our experience with The Oaks at Post Road has only been a brief one so far, but so far things have gone well. I'd give them high marks across the board, the facility itself is clean and well kept and the people are friendly. I do think they could use a few additional people on staff, but overall it is a very nice place.

Mom and Dad are happy with their new home as compared to another place they have lived. There is always room for improvement that can be seen once one is settled in any assisted living environment. Dogwood Forest seems to be all they claim to be but it is still necessary for residents and their family to point out where some details are lacking. I think this is mainly due to turnover of staff in residences like this and the attention to detail and customer care mind-set of each individual staff member. My siblings and I have found that our parents are not always willing to speak up but will grumble to us behind the scenes. So we take it upon ourselves to kindly point out to those in charge, the areas of concern our parents have. So far our small concerns have been well received and addressed....and that's a good sign! There are always questions you don't think to ask upon visiting a residence so I recommend each person who is searching for one, to think through your own day and the needs you have on a regular basis in order to make a list of items to ask about and get answers up front. For example, if a place says they do laundry, ask specifics about how it is done to determine how well your parent's belongings will be taken care of. Some places throw darks right in with the whites. For a woman who has been meticulous about her own laundry all her life will feel discouraged when her bright white items come back looking gray, which in turn could reduce her enthusiasm and morale. For someone who never cared much about how their laundry looked, this item wouldn't be a concern. You get the drift...watch out for the things that are important to your parent, not just to you.

Overall, we are very happy with Morningside of Evans. Lately there have been issues with employee turnover. This affects my mother both in the care she receives, and in her overall well being. The staff become like family to her and other residents. That said, I believe they are working to solve the problem. We are hopeful things will stabilize soon.

A lovely homelike facility, Ashley River Plantation has offered our family member an engaging community. Having a Memory Care Unit was very important to my husband and I as his mother had Moderate Dementia. She was able to bring her small dog there as well, however, with her use of a walker, taking care of her dog has become a burden. As active as this Activity Director makes the calendar, my mother-in-law does not take full advantage of the fun! She receives her medicines on time daily which is really appreciated. We no longer worry about her safety and know she is eating three good meals a day, which she wasn't doing when living alone.

I thought the facility was very, very nice. The only thing is that it seems a little older and it shows. However, The age of the building is not important to us, the care is. My loved one hasn't moved in yet. She will be moving in soon.

Staff is helpful and caring. Setting is homelike with many sitting areas both inside and out. Activities offered daily. Independent father doesn't find much for his interests unfortunately as he is a bit of an intellect and is still with it. Bingo , flower arranging, chair yoga and taking care of the aviary just aren't his thing. There are other choices not mentioned. Food alternatives are offered my vegetarian father as they flex to meet his dietary needs. Food is ok but could be more nutritious. Great weekly musical entertainment! Nice 2 bdrm for mom and dad. Staff has worked hard to meet moms needs re Incontinuance, gastro problems, and some dementia. Her adjustment has been hard, talk of moving her to memory care during adjustment has caused anxiety. They do have memory care where she will transition eventually. Christian home in nice location. Grateful.

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The Oaks at Hampton seemed like a nice place overall, the staff were friendly and the facility was well maintained and clean. However this place seemed a bit more male focused to me, it has sort of a rustic lodge feel and more male residents. It was a nice place, just not the right atmosphere for my loved one.

Overall I think they do a good job at Gracemont Assisted Living. The staff here are friendly and professional, and they work hard looking after the residents. They do, however, seem a bit understaffed at times. All of the residents I have met seem happy and content. I have had a few issues with their billing service, more than once I have received invoices with incorrect amounts on them.

My loved one has only been here a short time, but so far things have gone very well! They really put a lot of effort into making her feel welcome. I think they do an excellent job in terms of the care, the facility itself is nice, and they even do a good job with the food!

This is a nice place overall. The facility is clean and well kept, the staff are friendly, and for what they charge you get excellent service. I'm pleased with it overall!

Nice and homey...friendly staff.Meals need to be upgraded. The food is not consistent, sometimes good, sometimes pretty bad. Should be a lot better quality of food.

Lisa the activities Director gave us a tour.She was very professional and seemed to really love her job and enjoy the residents. Lots of volunteers from Lanier tech, residents were busy, out and interacting with others. Property is very nice, clean and maintained well. The Former Director had been here for many years and is going to open a new Facility for Company in Canton this Fall.

on the down side I thought the community had a slightly corporate feel to it. On the up side it was immaculate. I didn't get to speak to any residents.

Although young, Andrew Greeson was quite knowledgeable regarding seniors, their life styles and what The Oaks had to offer them to stimulate their interest and appetites. This is essentially a brand new establishment. Foyer is quite grand with a very open feel which leads into a front sitting area with a glowing 2 way fireplace. The dining rooms was likewise open and had a lovely view of the back walkway. The hallways seemed quite long and somewhat dark. The apartments had just one window each which made it feel somewhat closed in, and dark. Am not sure if this would be a good fit for mom.

They have just really done a good job making mom feel welcome and at home. The only thing I would say that probably needs to be improved is their sign-in/sign-out system. Other than that it is a great place and we would certainly recommend The Oaks at Post Road.
