We have been to Oakridge Nursing & Rehab Center. It was very dark. It seemed a very dismal place. There were four people in a room, which I thought was a bit much. They were noticeably understaffed, so it wouldn't be a place that I would recommend. There were four in a room, and they were divided by shower curtains. They were average-sized rooms. The staff was honest. They provided an honest assessment for me. I think they were helpful. It was a small facility. I saw the dining area, and that was kind of it. They didn't offer a lot of amenities. There was no exercise room, and there was no activity center. I met with the tour person who sometimes doubles as the cook and sometimes gives people showers. I just think they need to brighten up the place. They probably need to have a few more offerings in terms of activities and things for their residents. I was greeted with kind of an odor, so they need to work on some sanitizing, too.

the rating from 2012 is accurate, in 2017 the place is horrible, people staring off in space, smell of urine is pervasive, rooms are filthy, bee nests in skylight visible, stains on walls next to beds, too many people in small rooms, and overall unpleasant place to die. If a family puts their loved one in this horrific place they do not care about their loved one. The state needs to shut it down!

This place is not great. Oakridge looks like it once might have been a former motel. Now it is a run down nursing home. In fairness, I heard there are new owners and they are trying to make improvements. After getting buzzed in you see a nursing station with staff who do not seem too happy to be there. Then you walk into the lobby with many of the residents staring into space with nothing to do. There is a large activity room which also doubles for a dining room. The place doesn't smell very good at all and the place is not that clean. There is an outdoor patio in the summer, which might be its best feature. The facility advertises that the patio overlooks a courtyard, but what it overlooks is the parking lot -- which is free by the way. I would not recommend.
