Review for Amber Oaks Assisted Living

Overall I would give them a 4. I have noticed at times they have staffing issues but it doesn't seem to effect the care very much. My dad is very independent and only needs minimal assistance.

Positive experience

#1 Our overall experience has been great I would definitely give them a 5. #2 Considering the type of facility they do a great job keeping the facility clean and sanitary.

Great place to be

We love the place, the food is biggest drawback, not much variety, too much salt used, some meals not very appetizing. Quality of care is good, just a lot of turnover which causes confusion sometimes, especially with medicine, bath routines and such.

Definitely recommended

My loved one is currently a resident at Amber Oaks Assisted Living. I would give this facility a rating of 20, if I could. I'm so happy to have them! All of the staff have gone above and beyond for my loved one. The food is wonderful. I have never been to a facility that smells clean at all times! They do a fantastic job. I would definitely recommend this facility to family and friends!
