These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 27% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 9 findings, above the LA average of 8.3. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
The Oaks receives polarized feedback, with many reviewers praising the friendly, kind staff and warm environment, while others report serious concerns regarding communication and professional conduct. Families should be aware of specific allegations of verbal abuse and neglect, which contrast sharply with the positive experiences of others. The facility appears to struggle with consistency in care and administrative responsiveness.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
