Our experience with the facility and staff was absolutely a very positive one. The facility is older but well maintained and clean. The administrative staff was helpful and knowledgeable which really put us at ease. We felt the administration staff and nursing staff were very caring and considerate with my family member's stay.

Our mom was put in facility on hospice on Friday and passed Sunday morning. The care was exceptional for the family and our mom.

Well it's definitely not improving lately It went from being a fairly good place under the old ownership and administration to perrty depressing most days again 80% of the staff come from temp agencys so they never put forth the effort needed by residents.There is virtually no management that works the floor at all. The food is rarely good at all or just throwed together because there is no one to over see what's going on in the kitchen. So basically in the past few weeks since new ownership the facility is starting to remind me of back when covid was at its worst. Those where bad times.

I accidentally deleted my review when I saw they replied a while ago. They are horrible to their patients. No, I do not want to contact you to talk about it. I have enough reasons to think that you neglect the elderly and have zero compassion. There is nothing to work out there. Hope you get shut down. Original post was about the furnace going out, then not notifying family properly, threatening my mother that she would get in trouble for taking my grandmother out, were not giving residence blankets to stay warmer. But yeah, reply with a comment trying to save face.

This facility needs to be shut down! I had a friend that had to go there for two months after being released from the hospital. They put him in a room that was dirty needed painted wall sockets coming out of the wall no curtains no blinds. His window looked out to the courtyard so he had no privacy to dress or Undress. I brought his clothes and they said they were going to mark them. I bought him six new pairs of pants that he needed. They took them from me and said they would mark them. The new pants disappeared. The whole time he was there we had to search for his clothing and his blankets. They did not do therapy like they were supposed to be doing and probably bill Medicaid for something they did not do. It has been 9 months since he left there and went to assisted-living and we have fought with them since to get a refund for two of the pairs of pants that we could not find. Was just asking them to replace or refund for two of the new pairs of pants not asking for replacement of all the other clothes and blankets that they lost . Every time we call they would lie and say they sent a check and no check was ever received today. Nine months later they say that when he pays his $900 balance, they will send him a check for his two pairs of pants. This is the first we knew that there was a balance due, and it should be sent to Medicaid and Medicare . The time that he was there, they would never come in his room and clean it change the sheets. While I was there, I always observed elderly people sitting around that we’re in desperate need of help and they just ignored them. This is one of the worst places I have ever seen . Even some of the employees that left there commented on how bad it was and embarrassed to say they worked there, but they left.as of July 2 2024 he still has not received payment for the two new pairs of pants. It’s pretty bad when administration continually lies to the people that live there and their families. They’re social worker who was working in laundry continued to tell us that nobody had an opening for him to be moved. we were trying to get him into Bethany in Council Bluffs . We got him transferred out of Oakland to Missouri Vally and then I decided to call Bethany myself and confirmed that Oakland Manor was not trying to get him transferred there. I was able to get him transferred from Missouri Valley to Bethany Manor and we absolutely love it.
