OAKS AT STOCKBRIDGE

After Covid, my mother in law health declined as she began to isolate herself out of fear. Once it became too much for us to handle, we sent her here in June. We were seeing some small improvements in her overall health but she was a bit snappy and uncooperative at times. I think staff were exhausted and slowly giving up on her. They arranged a meeting to discuss hospice, stating that her health seemed to be declining. Against OUR better judgment, we agreed to move forward due to their “professional recommendation.” Something didn’t feel right to me..The last time we visited her, she was well, speaking, moving, and able to identify me, her son and her grandkids. A day or two after the agreement and signing the documents, we were told to come to the facility, as her time was running short. When we got there, she was in an unrecognizable state. She could not speak, could not turn her head, could not look at us- nothing. It was a sad sight to see. That evening, she passed.. only 1-2 mths after arriving. I truly believe that something was given to her that took her life. If only we had gotten the camera my instincts told me to get. If only we hadn’t signed the agreement…so many regrets. I hope that I’m wrong about this …. Just giving my honest review.

This place was an answer to prayer. My family had to make an decision regarding our mom needing more assistance in living and visiting this place made that decision easy. AnneMarie, Alexis, Christy and Shauna were such a joy to speak with and so welcoming. My daughter, daughter in law and I felt so at ease with everyone. It was like we had known each other a long time. The ease of everything was fabulous. The meals, the staff and the activities keeps everyone engaged. Our mom who is a "diva" kept saying "she wasn't going to like it" at every turn has yet to make that statement after being they for two weeks. As a previous ombudsman I had always hoped to find a place that checked all my boxes for my parents. So when I say "I am so pleased" is an understatement. Thank you for all the attention you share not only with my mom but with all the residents that I have had the pleasure of meeting. They are always available for any questions, situation or concerns you might have. Thank you for everything.

I visited the Oaks at Stockbridge to gain information for my loved one. The level of care, time, and attention to ease my mind as I prepare to transition my loved one to Assisted Living was more than I could have asked for! I ended up staying long past my appointment and felt I was amongst family and those who are genuinely concerned. If you are considering the same transition, I would highly recommend Oaks at Stockbridge! Thank you!

We moved my mother into The Oaks last November after my father passed away. She has never been so loved and cared for. Each and every staff member is exceptional❤️❤️ The Oaks is like a family to all the residents and they go above and beyond to make sure every resident is taken care of just like family. They also have great activities and the food is awesome!!!!!! Cheryl Jordan
