    Review

    The Oakmont is a senior living community that has received mixed reviews from residents and their families. While some have had a positive experience, others have voiced concerns about various aspects of the facility.

    One common theme in the reviews is the ease of the moving-in process. Families were pleased that their loved ones were able to move in right away, and they appreciated the convenience of The Oakmont's location. Availability was also a deciding factor for many in choosing this community.

    However, there were some negative comments regarding the congestion at The Oakmont. Some residents felt that the place was crowded, which may have contributed to other issues they experienced. One such issue was with the food quality. Multiple reviewers mentioned that the food at The Oakmont was not very good. Additionally, it appears that there may be staffing issues, as there were complaints about not enough staff members to properly care for residents or address concerns.

    One incident involving rude behavior from a staff member stood out to one reviewer. They mentioned witnessing an argument between two staff members in front of residents, which understandably left a negative impression. Furthermore, it seemed that dietary preferences were not always accommodated, as one resident mentioned receiving sausage and eggs despite requesting not to eat them.

    Despite these negatives, two employees named and received praise for their helpfulness and professionalism during the initial stages of moving into The Oakmont. A particular mention went to their assistance in fixing a resident's cell phone.

    Another long-term resident expressed frustration about The Oakmont being advertised as "Independent Living," when they felt that several residents were unable to care for themselves properly. This posed challenges for those who sought an independent lifestyle and detracted from the overall environment.

    On a more positive note, several reviewers commended The Oakmont for its response to COVID-19. They mentioned feeling well taken care of during this time and appreciated the efforts made by staff to protect residents from the virus. Safe social distanced activities were also mentioned as a positive aspect of the community.

    Overall, it seems that The Oakmont has its strengths and weaknesses. While some residents and their families have had positive experiences and appreciated the caring staff and convenient location, others have had concerns about the congestion, food quality, staffing levels, and the discrepancy between advertised independence and actual care needs.
