My mom was at Oak Hills for a few months for rehab after a fall. Her care from the entire team was exemplary! Everyone was so joyful and kind. The remodel is in the final stage and looks so modern and polished. Thank you for taking such good care of my mom.

Oak Hills Living Center does a beautiful job of caring for seniors. Both my parents stayed here and my mother-in-law currently resides in a room. Staff has always been good and understanding. Staff supports both the residents needs as well as supports and informs the family of care or changes. Grateful to have Oak Hills Living Center in the community especially when we don't live in the community.
