I was at Oakridge for rehab from the hospital. All the staff no matter their job was pleasant and helpful. They were kind and courteous and genuinely listened to my requests. My diet was difficult and the kitchen was gracious in helping with my good nutrition. The room and the facility was very clean. It made my recovery very pleasant. I would recommend this facility for a comfortable, pleasant recovery with a very capable staff.

I was admitted to Oakridge on June 19 without any ablity to walk properly or keep my balance. But through the help of the OT and PT staff I was able to slowly gain my walking and balance abilities back. The positive feedback and kind encouragement from the nursing staff also helped me a lot.

The minute I got there I knew it was going to be a great experience. There was an inviting atmosphere. Everyone was so welcoming. I had excellent care. The nurses and cna’s were knowledgeable and professional Food service was very tasty. Housekeeping kept everything squeaky clean. Laundry was awesome. My clothes were so clean. Maintenance kept everything working properly. Physical therapy and occasional therapy worked with me. I hadn’t walked for five years and walked within one month. I am extremely happy I chose to come here. I will absolutely suggest Oak Ridge Care Center to anyone looking for a skilled nursing facility. This place is awesome!!!

My wife had a stroke about a month earlier and we transferred to Oak Ridge from an acute rehab facility. We immediately loved the friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, and attitude. The room was always kept clean and they held to a pretty good routine. The food was good and they happily made menu adjustments to meet our needs. I take into account that operating a skilled nursing facility has significant challenges under state regulations and keeping the facility staffed is tough for any health care facility. This certainly caused a few slower responses to call lights and dinner coordination but overall, they were great. Coming off a stroke, PT/OT and speech therapy staff worked hard on rehab utilizing a variety of techniques and equipment to help my wife progress enough to transfer to home care. Clearly a dedicated staff. The support we got from the caseworkers was exceptional. Always willing to answer questions and doing the legwork between insurance, Medicare and setting up home health care. I know we wouldn’t have gotten this far without the entire staff and support services at Oak Ridge.
