It's been close to a year since Mom passed so it's hard to say what the situation is now. The Oaks was brand new then and had some wonderful, caring folks working the memory unit. It was clean and shiny but it was brand new then. As for now...?

ADMINISTRATION NEEDS TO TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY

I have a family member currently here, the staff does their best with the resources they are given. They pull double shifts etc. Luckily my family member is still able to communicate. There have been 3 issues with their medication running out on the weekend. Missing more than 4 doses of a much needed medication for their condition. I worry about the ones who cannot speak, there really needs to be a medicine audit for these people. The administration ([name removed])wants to blame the techs, but the techs are barely taught(high turnover rate), no certifications, yet they have so many residents with varying meds to keep track of. So please pay attention if you put your loved ones here, believe them when they talk.

Poorly run facility

Administration did not disseminate information appropriately, follow up to assure care was taking place, or when necessary contact family timely. To assure things are being done family needed to stay vigilant and share information with each shift and new employee. Even with numerous reminders some services were never put in place. Staff interactions with residents demonstrated limited patience and lack of understanding of this population. Without repercussion, staff was permitted to curse and talk negatively of residents. Rather than relieving the family of responsibilities, more was put upon them.

I would recommend this facility to others. It is beautiful and cheerful and all of the residents that I have talked with say that they like it. They have not been open long and I get the feeling that they have had some issues with maintaining staffing levels, but that seems to be an issue with most businesses these days. I would like to have a little better communication with those who manage the facility, but have developed a good rapport with the front line staff. They are very caring and helpful and they are good with my mom.

Highly Recommended

The staff caring for the residents are excellent...can't say enough. The administration staff is less so, but they are brand new. The move in and communication with admin staff had some issues. The food is adequate, but not much more. Pretty much what we've experienced elsewhere...industrial food! I would highly recommend Oaks at Aiken. By far the best we've experienced.

Our Experience

Having compared The Oaks with other comparable facilities in the immediate area, I would highly recommend it. It is a "home-like" atmosphere. My husband is in the Memory Care Unit of the facility. It is secure and, for the first time in months, I feel that he is in a safe place. Staff has been great--from housekeeping to management. Meals are better than expected--quite a variety and "on-time". Move-in was flawless. This is a new facility in Aiken--PT area, barber/beauty salon not yet fully implemented, but look forward to that happening soon. Also, an outdoor covered patio with lovely furniture and heaters. Have not utilized that yet. Only slight criticism is they should implement an "orientation program" for new residents/caregivers. That would help the new arrivals and save time for The Oaks. it is an absolutely beautiful facility. Very large window in room for natural light, very well laid out bathroom with all necessary safety measures considered. Ample closets. Floors are not carpet, "vinyl" type planks. ..a good thing.
