My Aunt passed away after living at the oaks for 15 years. I rented a unit for her funeral and the staff was lovely and accommodating.

Do not go here. The nurses DO NOT help patients my dad’s nose bled for 2 days. I asked them to look at it several times we ended up in hospital. The nurses are rude and do not treat patients as human beings.

My dad has broken his hip & has dementia. They don't get him up to move as he should be exercised to work his musclesfor recovery (according to my mother witnessing all of this, as she is always there visiting for hours) AND when he needs to go to the bathroom & calls for assistance, it has taken an hour and a half for some one to finally respond to their call for help. 😡

My husband and I moved into the Oaks 2 years ago. It has been the best decision. There are so many positive things about The Oaks. We like being close to a vibrant town that we can walk to with many restaurants and shops. Major highways are easily accessible and the town has train and bus service to NYC. The Oaks is also next door to a hospital and close to Morristown Memorial Hospital. The apartments are very well built and extremely quiet. We have also enjoyed the many activities that are available. The staff are wonderful and very responsive. But the best part of moving in has been meeting and getting to know the other residents. It is a wonderful and caring community.
