The Oaks at Dewitt

I am a friend or relative of a resident

The Oaks is a beautiful, updated nursing home with overall nice staff. My grandmother was here for a year before she passed away. There were some rough patches as some of my grandmother's possessions were stolen including jewelry and clothing. Also, I feel that she could have received better health care as she deteriorated much quicker when she moved to this facility. She also developed many bed sores from not being turned or moved out of bed enough. She did not go on many outings either while she was here which was disappointing. Some of the staff, however, was quite nice and really showed that they cared about her and did their best to interact with her on a consistent basis and not make her feel like a prisoner. I think in the past year they have updated many things and I hope the care is better for the current residents. Overall, I feel that most nursing home are very depressing places to be.
