What this means for your family
While Four Oaks has a dedicated therapy team and active life enrichment programs, the recent, recurring reports of neglect and hygiene issues are significant red flags. We strongly advise families to conduct unannounced visits during weekends or evening shifts to observe staffing levels and resident care firsthand before making a decision.

Families should be aware of recurring reports of residents being left soiled for extended periods and inconsistent communication from administrative staff. While some visitors find the facility clean and well-managed, others describe it as overcrowded and lacking in basic amenities like hot water.”
