I moved into Atria. The food is wonderful, and I eat breakfast and dinner with them. The only problem is the microwave. I have a 2-bedroom, 2-bath, and I use the second bedroom as an office. I have a patio too. The staff is wonderful, I'm heading down to say the rosary at 2:00, and they have a movie showing tonight. I'm busy with doctors' visits, and they have buses for that. They have a library and an exercise room. It's a little bit expensive.

My mom has lived at this facility for over 5 years. Prior to choosing this location, we visited and evaluated a total of 7 independent living facilities. Mom has a spacious one-bedroom apartment with 9-foot ceilings and a stacked washer and dryer in her bath. She tells her friends that she feels like she lives in a mansion because 1) the facility is large and beautiful, 2) the staff takes care of all her needs from cleaning her apartment, to maintenance in her apartment, to driving her to doctor appointments, 3) the food is outstanding, 4) there are physical therapy and occupational therapy services on site, 5) there's a hair salon on site, 6) there are numerous activities and social events planned every week. Mom moved from another city to Raleigh, and has made many friends at Atria. While there have been some hiccups along the way due primarily to changes in management, the facility is currently outstanding with a fabulous director and fantastic food.

I’m thrilled to hear that you and your mom are having a wonderful experience with Atria Oakridge! One of the best things about Atria is the focus on connection through our Engage Life programming, which it sounds like your mom has fully taken advantage of due to the many new friends she has made since her move. I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and kind words with us. It means a lot!

My visit to Atria was fine. They have hairdressing salon and an exercise room. The activities are very good and very nice. They had a nice dining room, there was a lot to do there, and the people seemed very happy.

Atria Oakridge didn't fit what I was looking for because they are an independent living community, and I wanted assisted living for my mom. The rooms seemed pretty spacious and nice. It was pretty expensive being an independent living facility, but I know the Raleigh area is a pretty expensive place.

My Father and Mother live at Atria. We helped them move to Atria to be closer to us. We love it! One of the best things about Atria is the staff. They are so friendly and very helpful. My mom enjoys living there because they provide housekeeping and maintenance plus she never has to cook (unless she wants to). My parents have a very nice two bedroom apartment that includes a full kitchen. It feels like home but with lots of extras. Mom and Dad both use the on-site physical therapy services and the hairdresser. It's so convenient. Atria hosts many special events where the family is invited to attend like Mother's Day Tea, French night in the dining room and Memorial Day cookout. The food and service is great. It's nice to be able to join them for dinner with our large extended family in the dining room. Our family always feels welcome there. There are many in-house activities available for residents to attend, I particularly love the live music events like the harpist and pianist. My parents have made many friends at Atria, too. It is nice that Atria is so close to shopping and restaurants and even a hospital. My parents have lived there for a year and it has been a great experience for all of us.

I’ve been to Atria (Atria Oakridge). My overall experience with them was not all positive. My problem with them was the ratio of independent living to assisted living is very high in favor of independent living, which I wasn’t wild about since my mother is going to require assisted living. They don’t have suites or studios, just rooms.

My mom was at Atria Oakridge for three years. The first year was OK, but they changed ownership, then it went downhill. The food and maintenance were bad. The staff were not very helpful. We moved our mom out because the food was really terrible for the price that we paid them.

Atria Oakridge was nice, and the lady was super nice. They had a ton of activities, which we thought was great, but nobody was out in the lobby. This was the only place we saw where there was no one in the lobby. Maybe they were all busy or maybe we just hit them at a wrong time. It was nice, clean, nice apartment -- pretty typical. It was pretty. The staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable and weren't pushy, either. I think they followed up with me; I don't think any of the others have.

Atria Oakridge is very nice and pretty. The staff is very nice; I think they do a very good job; they are informative and helpful. The apartments were nice and of good size; she is in a 800 sq. ft apartment with a full kitchenette. It’s definitely enough space for her. The food is delicious and good. The dining room is very pleasant, it’s like a restaurant atmosphere, and the service is good. She wants to play dominos, bingo, and pool, and they go on outings to movies and shopping. They seemed to be doing something every day. How friendly and how informative the atmosphere and people were really impressed me. They are very knowledgeable and accommodating. The place is very safe.

I was very impressed with the facility, the staff, the residents, and all overall impressions. I visited multiple times without an appointment and was pleasantly received each time. My questions were always answered and someone always found the time to talk to me.
This was my top 2 pick for my mother.

My mom is in Atria Oakridge. It is very convenient to my sister and me. This is about two to five minutes away. The rooms are spacious. It is a fairly new building so it is ADH standards. The security is good. They do a good job in watching the doors, and people sign in and out.
This is definitely a step up in a number of ways for her. In a way, it is a bit more focused on independent living, and my mom is at a point where she is in a wheel chair all of the time now. It turns out that they have a lot of programs, but a lot of them assume you can go out and walk into the bus with them going out to diners, movies, and things like that. There is no provision made for wheel chair access, and a lot of the people there still drive their own cars. Its focus is independent living, but they do have a homecare add-on to it. The rooms are designed in such a way that is easier for them to have people going around in wheelchairs. It has a courtyard with some bushes in it.
They have choices of food. They have half a dozen standard items on one sheet and on the other is half a dozen special, and it was like a real menu; you would literally order at a restaurant. Similarly, at breakfast you had your choices like eggs, pancakes waffles, hot cereals, or cold cereals; it has a whole menu of foods.

Atria is close to shopping. It has well manicured grounds. They do a nice job with their yards, their lawn and the flowers. The place is fairly new and well kept. It is very clean and has a very friendly atmosphere. The rooms are lots of different options as far as size and Mom has a very nice-sized apartment. She's got like picture windows both in her bedroom and her living room and it makes it really nice. You always have a nice view of outdoors. When you have a picture window, even if you're elevated in a higher level, you usually get to see just a lot more of the outdoors which I think is kind of nice for someone who spends a lot of time indoors. I'd eaten there and the food that they serve is quite good and is like a menu option that they have for dining. The staff is exceptional and they have lots of different activities. She's gone on field trips, she does drive and her doctor is just down the street so she takes herself along with my sister. If that place was up here close to home, it would be perfect just so that I could be close by.
