Assisted Living Reviews for Spring Oaks

I visited this facility

My visit to spring Oaks was fine, and I got my questions answered. They showed me around. They have a large dining area, a rest area, and they have a patio, which is good, but everything looked a little rundown. They should be a little more modernized, and a little cleaner. The staff was fine, very courteous, and very nice.
Provider Response
F.C. Thank you so much for your kind words about our staff and your visit. We are glad your questions were answered. Our staff is amazing and our residents build a wonderful relationship with all staff members. Even though our community is a bit older, we are continually working at making improvements to update our look, including new flooring in most of the resident rooms and common areas, repainting common areas etc.. Thank you again for taking the time to review us!

Spring Oaks seemed fine. They had quite a few activities. They kept the people happy, and it seemed fun. They had an outdoor area, and a big room where live music plays. The staff seemed like they were good with their people.
Provider Response
Thanks Al for visiting Spring Oaks. Our residents and staff are amazing and we have fun everyday thanks to our Life Enrichment Programs. As an example, a group of our residents took a trip to Bayport today to enjoy the wonderful Florida weather and see the Gulf. Everyone had a great time. We very much appreciate your kind words.

Spring Oaks has a very clean, and very friendly atmosphere. They seem to be very caring about their residents. They have entertainment for the residents, and game days. They have separate areas for memory care and assisted living, and they are more than adequate for what we needed. The cost was reasonable.
Provider Response

Spring Oaks seems to be able to do what's needed to be done for my wife. The personality of the staff is outstanding. Her sister and I have eaten there with my wife several times, and the food is great. They have activities, like visiting entertainment and bingo, and they have a library.

I toured Spring Oaks and I saw residents doing activities. It was a smaller place, and it felt uncomfortable to me. Everybody was nice, but nothing really stood out. It was OK, but it was not my favorite out of all the places I visited. It was a little outdated, and the dining area was small. They could choose brighter and lighter colors because the place seemed kind of dark. Their courtyard looked really nice though.

Spring Oaks was very nice, but it wasn’t a fit for my son. The staff was very nice, and they play games and took them out.

My dad was in Spring Oaks in July, but he had an incident and they had to transport him to the hospital. He was having falling problem and he did not go back there. The experience there was very good. I liked the staff so much. They were very attentive. I liked the set-up. The building was well lit and they had sky light, so the halls were not dark. The doorways to the rooms were wheelchairs accessible and doors were wider than most rooms. The only thing that I did not like was that they had to share bathrooms between two suites, which made it kind of awkward for a senior to determine if someone else was in the bathroom. It was an older building and I could understand that. Also, there were some strong odors of urine in some areas. Apparently, one of the roommates from the other side had health issues and it caused him to have a very strong odor and they had difficulty keeping his room clean. When we moved my dad in, I almost passed out. My husband had to take me outside for air because of that. In a way it wasn’t the facility’s fault, but they needed to do something. The room was very nice. It had a window and you could look out into the yard and it was in a good size. I would recommend that place. The other parts of the building were great. My dad was able to go to the cafeteria for entertainment and meals. Everything was good.

I didn't see anything I didn't like at Spring Oaks. The thing that I did like was that there seemed to be a lot of activities. Everybody was busy doing things. They had physical therapy, and a lady was bouncing a ball back and forth with them. They were laughing and talking, people were watching a movie, and it just seemed very free and unrestricted. The rooms were nice. They had a large dining area, and it was clean. The staff seemed very courteous and helpful. What I liked the most was the overall happiness of the place.

Spring Oaks wasn’t expecting us, but they were most accommodating. Being a newer facility, everything was very bright, and that made you feel happy because of the brightness. Everything was nice. The people were lining up for their lunchtime, and they were like, “Come with us.” The residents were like, “This is the best place in the whole world; we love it.” It was nice. The memory care unit was smaller because the facility was smaller. The facility was nice, clean, and newer. I like the newness, and the brightness. However, they didn’t have much of a garden area. They did have things to do there. They had TV, and a workroom where they could make things. They played bingo. There was nothing at all that wasn’t great. They were all very accommodating, and they were really good.

The one we like the best for my mom is Spring Oaks. It seemed rather nice and had a 30-bed limit in the memory unit. We talked to one of the rehab persons and liked what we discussed. It seemed like a well-rounded facility. The staff answered the questions we had, which was good, and we were pleased from what we observed of how the nurse’s aides and the nurses dealt with the individuals as we walked around. They had private and semi-private rooms only. The semi-privates looked OK. There was enough space between the beds, so it didn’t seem like you were right on top of the other person. They had separate closets. The bathroom was basically shared by four people, but the showering and washing areas were separate. As for activities, they had people coming in to try to entertain the residents. They also had a media room.

My sister has been in Spring Oaks since September. It's very well-kept, they have a bookkeeper working there, and the food is fantastic. Even the residents love it. They tell us all the time that they've been to several others, and this is the best one they've ever found. The staff is wonderful, very informative, and they're right there to answer questions. They had to put my sister in the hospital last night because she got real violent, and they took care of her. They brought her back last night, and they called me right away to inform me. It's very convenient, and her doctor is just down at the highway. They have a room where they go to eat. Before they go into eat, there's a lady that stands there asking questions just to help their mind before they go in. There are activities, and entertainment. There was a really nice entertainment guy singing Western music the other day when I was there, and it was fantastic. At Christmas-time, they brought little small packages in for all of the residents. There's a Valentine's party coming up, and family members can come to that. There's a bar that has snacks during the day; like donuts or cookies they can get anytime they want.

Nobody should have to live in a place like this. Two strangers crammed into a room meant for one person, sharing a toilet with 2 other strangers in an adjoining room. Not a square inch of privacy. Too often the staff forgets to take patients down the hall to the showers, which are only scheduled twice a week. No hot water in the sink in the room. Extremely small storage area. Depressing!

Hi, I'm Katie, I work at Holiday Retirement Home Office. I'm sorry to hear that you are having a negative experience at Spring Oaks. Have you spoken to your community management team about the possibility of getting a private room? Private rooms are available at Spring Oaks, so if you were to move into one, that would alleviate your concerns around privacy. Thanks again, Katie

My mother in law has been here for 6 months. We moved her after 2 yrs from the snotty and over priced Timber Pines( not the apartments) where her meds came up missing, the nurses lied to your face and she was just a body to them. We are so thrilled with the care, love and real concern that the staff has for my mother in law. She has a nice room to her self with her own furniture and shares a toilet with another lady. The staff knows her name, gives her lots of hugs and conversation. The food is okay, she is not losing weight by no means. There are no foul smells in the hallways, no one slumped over in a wheel chair and shoved into a hall/room. I judge this place by the staff, not the fancy chandeliers. I can't tell you how much we worry LESS than where she was at before. The decision to have to place a loved one in a facility is hard enough, but here, they made the transition for us all so easy.

Spring Oaks was very clean, and the staff was very professional. I do not know if I would recommend this facility to others. I guess it would depend on the person that I am talking to. It was very small.

Everything about Spring Oaks is good. I can't say anything bad about it at all. Everybody is perfect. It is just the best management you could imagine. The food is three quarters good, and my wife and I have one room together. It has two beds, and it has got air conditioning and heat, a private toilet, a refrigerator, a couple of cabinets to put your stuff in, and a great big window. I would say absolutely nothing but the best about the staff. Everyone is cheerful, happy, nice, and happy. There couldn't be a better place around here.

I also visited Spring Oaks. The staff was excellent. They were more friendly, and I had more information. Of all the three places, this was my favorite. It had a beautiful and sunny atmosphere. The apartment looked very nice. They looked fine and had a better look than the other one I visited. It had a skylight coming through. So, there was sunlight shining. It as bright and cheerful, and everything looked very nice and clean. The people seemed happy. They had all sorts of things, and the lady who does the activities was really cheerful, upbeat, and she was very positive. I thought they could improve on their entrance because their reception seemed a little formal and old fashioned.

I visited Spring Oaks. It's smaller than what I wanted. I like that they had skilled nursing inside the memory unit. They had somebody come in that was singing to the people, and they were dancing. I like the management. We talked for about an hour and a half. They have dining rooms that they can pick some food from. They let you bring you your furniture in. You can visit anytime you want, and mom can take her dog.

The meal schedule at Spring Oaks was ridiculous. They had 6 am for breakfast, 11 am for lunch and 4 pm for dinner. It won't work for us. We have lunch with them and it was okay, but not great.

My mother and father are together now in Spring Oaks. Actually, dad just joined her yesterday. My main goal was to care for them, but not only that, they've been married for sixty five years and I wanted them to be together. They could accommodate my dad's special diet because he aspirates, and also take care of my mom's dementia needs. Dad's physical needs are now more than mom's. Mom is developing dementia, and dad's diet is a concern, so I can't tell you that it's wonderful. Their menu and food is fine, but it is not home cooking, so they don't really like it. They have entertainment, crafts, and Bingo; and those are things that both of them enjoy. They want to go home because they don't want to be in what they consider an institution. But for me, I feel that they are in the safest place.
