Our experience

I would recommend Generations at Oakton Arms. It has been very hard for me to handle the passing of my mom.

Review for Generations Oakton Arms

They seem understaffed, the response time to nursing calls is very long, not sure if this is normal as this is my first experience with nursing homes. We have no basis of comparison and only had a day to find a place. I found the whole industry a bit frustrating because several places wouldn’t clearly share their pricing until after asking detailed questions about her finances.

Review for Generations Oakton Arms

Broken elevator for years outrageous. The cleaning crew needs training. My cousin is always complaining about the food. Upside workers very nice, managers so so.

Nice Facility. Worth looking into

Staff very friendly and professional. We have used Oakton several times for my disabled brother while we were out of town. They were very accommodating to his needs. We would certainly look to Generations Oakton Arms in the future, either as temporary or if necessary, permanent housing.

Review for Generations Oakton Arms

I would definitely recommend to others. They were pretty understaffed for help residents back to their room after meals. Call buttons took a while.
