Generic

The owner uses highly repetitive, templated language to respond to all reviews. The responses focus on directing the reviewer to a corporate hotline rather than addressing the specific allegations of abuse or neglect.

Key Review Excerpts

The therapy team was exceptional. Their expertise enabled me to regain mobility, and I am grateful to be walking today. Additionally, the meatloaf was great.

Rehab patient · 2025★★★★★

I witness my family member being mistreated by an angry, unprofessional & rude staff by the name of ANGIE(morning aide). She place a hot food tray over important document's, being rough, rude & rushing when bathing...

Long-term resident's family · 2024☆☆☆☆

Yeah, no. These people made my 75 year old dad take a 4 hour ride to a Dr. appointment while sitting in his own excrement because they 'don't have the means to clean it up' ???

Oak Ridge Manor has a concerning pattern of complaint-triggered deficiencies, with families filing reports that led to 11 of the 22 total violations across five surveys. The facility has struggled with care planning, infection control, and abuse prevention policies. While most past issues have been corrected, recent deficiencies from late 2024/2025 in dietary staffing, infection control, and fire safety remain without correction plans, suggesting ongoing operational challenges that warrant careful consideration.
