About Oasis at Margate

Oasis at Margate Assisted Living Residence is unique amongst assisted living residences in the area. Large enough to offer all the services one would expect from a much larger community, but small enough to offer those services with a personal touch in an intimate, waterfront setting. Our assisted living programs serve residents who can no longer live completely independently but do not need higher-level skilled…

Review on Oasis

I want to start by saying this is " A place away from home". This is not your regular " Assisted living facility". This place is filled with love, laughter and compassion. We are fun here, we involve providers, the new owner, and even strangers with any activity to build/grow this small community. Though there are ups and downs and issues at times, they never get overlooked. The maintenance, BOM, Admin, Medtechs, CNAs, Housekeeping and even the Dietary staff- They run a tight shift around here. They are always on

All Around Great

The facility is located on beautiful grounds and is run by a very friendly and professional group of skilled nurses, CNA’s and other staff who care about making sure residents are both happy and healthy. Definitely recommend.

Excellent place for mom.

My Mother has advanced Alzheimer’s. She is well taken care of by [name removed] and others at Oasis at Margate. The staff is very responsive to her needs, especially the head nurse, Diane. They work well with Mom’s hospice team, and we appreciate Accent Hospice Care too. My mom has been here over 10 years. Her first several years she was active and enjoyed the many activities. I’m glad we didn’t have to move her when she succumbed to advanced Alzheimer’s. There has only been one very small increase in her care in a

Don't let the pictures fool you!

Mom had been living happily at Oasis for six years when it used to be Margate Manor. Then it got taken over by 428 Healthcare. Food quality gone down. Meds given out late or not at all. Air conditioner broke for two days. Once they fixed it they set it at the highest level to save money. Telephones removed. When asked how mom was to ask for help, the staff told her she could go in the hallway and yell for help. Staff that had been there for 10, 15 years all quit or were fired. And to top it off, mom had to go to th

Please do not place your loved ones there

My mother was a resident there for seven years. It was a wonderful place. Then it was bought by 428 health care. The nursing staff quit, frustrated. Now they have medical technicians on staff. They removed the phones from the residents rooms. My mom was told that if she needs help to stick her head in the hallway and yell. There is very little staff there. Try calling and if someone answers, it's your lucky day. I went to see my mother last Sunday and she was lying on her bed with no top sheet, sheets were soiled,
