Key Review Excerpts
“Never gave my mom medication on time, did not give her a bath on the scheduled days, not very prompt when they tell you they going do something.”
“I have been to many care facilities, and Oak Grove is the cleanest that I have been in. The facilities that I have been in always smell like urine and Oak Grove does not.”
“Asked for pain med at 10:45 AM, received it almost 3 hours later. Staff picked up expensive shirt with laundry, but it was never recovered.”
