The Oaks at Woodfield

I don’t know why everyone says this a great place. Don’t go by the reviews are here. Most of these great reviews are written by the workers and their relatives and friends. It’s a horrible place. Lazy nurse aide. Nurses don’t care if you suffer or in pain. They didn’t have my relative’s medication there, so my relative was suppose to suffer in pain or have a stroke over the weekend waiting for medication to come through? This place didn’t care. Why didn’t this place make sure before my relative came that all the medication was there. The nurses just shrugged their shoulders and told my relative to wait till the next day, didn’t care how important the medication was. My relative continually told them the medications she needed are to keep her from having a stroke and to keep her alive. Plus, the rooms look outdated. Food was cold, bland, and disgusting. It took nurse aide an hour to come take my relative to the bathroom. They put my relative in a room that had a dirty, flooding toilet, water all over the floor. They didn't care to switch rooms, get emergency maintenance, or use bed pan so my relative wouldn’t have to walk on wet bathroom floor. They didn’t care if my relative got wet, my relative has pneumonia, which almost took her life, and couldn’t get wet. This place knew the bathroom was flooding before my relative came there, but was still put in that room, to make money off a patient, thinking we’d overlook it. My relative didn’t get proper care, relaxation, rehabilitation. The nurses, nursing supervisor, nurse aide smiled and lied in my face like they would take care of my relative and didn’t, when I kindly talk to them about my relative’s issues. But my relative cause no problems, but this place did and that’s why my relative wanted out the first day. My relative can’t live without her medication nor live in a dirty flooding bathroom.

My mom has been here twice. I just brought her home today. The staff are all wonderful. They are as attentive as they can be. I love that they have so many different activities for the residents and families even to enjoy. I did request my mom to be placed here for the second time needed as the first time was absolutely wonderful also. I know there are many horror stories of facilities but not place. I highly recommend this facility if you are in need of help for family. I would definitely choose them again and again. I THANK YOU EVERYONE FROM THE NURSES, PT,OT,KITCHEN STAFF,AIDS, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU ARE WONDERFUL

I can not praise The Oaks and staff enough. My grandpa has been here about a month and a half, and the care has been truly exceptional. My grandfather can be stubborn and, therefore, a bit difficult at times, but the nurses are always kind and patient with him. They are able to push him just enough when needed, and can get him out to socialize or move around. The range of activities/events is phenomenal! He is also a very picky eater. On the whole, the kitchen staff has been great about following his dietary requests and meeting his needs. Every member of the Oaks' team has been such a blessing. They are angels. I feel safer knowing my grandpa is here and seeing how well he is taken care of each day.

The staff at Woodfield is AMAZING! Over 90 days experience with the rehabilitation/nursing care side and it has been wonderful. The age of the staff and the lack of turnover tells you people enjoy working here and are treated well! The activities are day and evening and run throughout the week so there are still things to do on the weekend. Insurance covered care so I can't speak to price, but if you are looking for somewhere to recuperate or Assisted Living I would suggest you start here! It may not be the newest facility around but it has the best level of care and competent employees!
