About Fair Oaks Rehabilitation & Health Care Center

Fair Oaks Rehabilitation & Health Care Center is a skilled nursing and long-term care facility in South Beloit, Illinois, with a capacity of 78 residents. The community offers rehabilitation services and ongoing care for seniors with varying mobility and health needs.

Family experiences at Fair Oaks are sharply divided. Several families report deeply positive encounters, highlighting attentive staff members by name (particularly praising nursing staff, front-desk personnel, and therapy teams), comfortable environments, quality food, and personalized rehabilitation approaches. One family noted their mother has lived there over three years and "constantly talks about how good the food is" and how well she's treated. Others commend the warm atmosphere and compassionate care during recovery. However, a significant portion of families describe serious concerns: inadequate staffing ratios limiting communication and care coordination, infrequent bathing and hygiene maintenance, uncomfortable accommodations, and what one family experienced as impersonal management responses following a resident's passing. Reviews also mention inconsistencies in facility cleanliness and upkeep.

Fair Oaks holds a 4.4 out of 5 Google rating based on 114 reviews. The community appears to benefit from dedicated individual staff members, but families considering placement may want to ask detailed questions about staffing levels, care protocols, and current management before admission, given the wide range of reported experiences.

I have always loved Fair Oaks. Both of my Grandmothers have been here. I like the size of the facility, homelike environment, beautiful courtyard and large therapy department. Staff is welcoming and attentive to visitors and residents.

I didn’t even want to give a star at all. Horrible place. Had to take my mom out of there. The smell when you walk in this facility is horrendous, the building is so old and the rooms look terrible. You can just walk in, no check in, or no signing in. Beds were very uncomfortable and bedding terrible. My mom was in the same clothes for days. They do not shower the clients and sometimes (and I mean sometimes) wipe them down with a cold towel. Unacceptable. They do not follow diets. This facility needs to be reported and shut down. I will be seeking legal counsel. Don’t be fooled by the reviews like we were, please visit before sending a love one here

I was brought out to Fair Oaks recently as an entertainment vendor for the residents and staff. I had such a wonderful time!<br><br>The staff was all friendly and accommodating and the residents were all happy, comfortable and a joy to perform for.<br><br>I've performed for a lot of nursing homes and assisted living facilities over the past few decades and it isn't every time I get to see one as clean and well kept as Fair Oaks, with a staff that clearly cares a great deal about the comfort of their residents.
