This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 39% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 11 findings, above the NC average of 5.6. 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 highly polarized feedback, with many families reporting severe neglect, understaffing, and unprofessional behavior, while others praise the rehabilitation therapy team. While some residents report a positive experience during short-term rehab, numerous reviewers describe critical failures in basic care, including hygiene issues, medication errors, and slow response times to call lights. Families should be aware of a consistent pattern of complaints regarding communication and staffing levels.

“My husband would be sitting in feces if I was not regularly visiting. On his departure he was given some other patients meds to take home.”
“The staff from CNAs to the Physical Therapists and everyone in between was very professional and pleasant.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.

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.
