Assisted Living Communities in Tulsa, OK

"My dear mom was at Brookdale Assisted Living for a little over four years. She had been in two other places before my sister and I found Brookdale. When we toured Brookdale we realized this was the place for our mom. The environment is warm and welcoming and feels more like “home.” The staff are kind, gentle and caring. My sweet mom felt safe and secure. She had a lovely view of the courtyard and sunshine. Brookdale gave my sister and me peace of mind knowing our mother was happy during this last chapter of her life."

"I was very impressed with Canoe Brook and the gentleman who spoke with me. They looked very well organized. I was impressed with the living room, but the bedroom was pretty small and wouldn’t accommodate my mother’s furniture. I was a little bit disappointed there. The dining area was very clean and well maintained. They had 24-hour nurses. "

"We visited the Sterling House of Owasso assisted living facility as an option for our aunt. The grounds looked well-kept and accessible for residents to enjoy freely. This is important, since our aunt likes to be outside as much as weather permits. The single-story building was well-designed seemed very comfortable to live in. One of the reasons our aunt needs to move is due to the stairs in her home. It is just too hard for her to get around. The interior was really beautiful. There seemed to be plenty of privacy for everyone who desired it, while others could participate in a number of activities like games, socializing, snacking, watching television and movies and listening to music. The private apartments were all spacious and lovely and easy to navigate. The homey settings had the feel of a charming cottage or bungalow rather than an old folk's home. You can reserve private areas for social events, entertaining and dining which is nice for visitors and friends and family. All of the area are designed to be easy to access for everyone, including those with limited mobility. The dining options looked interesting and delicious. Residents can choose from a variety of types of food choices that are healthy and nutritious. The activities ranged from walking, exercise and games to reading and other forms of entertainment, which everyone has access to. The staff seemed caring and kind and the residents responded well to them. That's what is most important to us for our aunt. We think this could be a good living environment for her so it is a strong contender. "

"My visit to Methodist Manor was fine. I think it had been remodelled recently. The rooms were the nicest for the best price, and came in a variety of different sizes complete with a kitchen, study, living room, and bedroom. The staff was very helpful. The location was near a shopping area, and their activity schedule was quite full. "

"My mother-in-law stayed at The Villages at Southern Hills for two weeks. The room was clean, but it was not homey. It looked and felt like a hotel room. I didn't interact with the staff too much. My spouse took care of almost everything. But the staff is fine. They were nice and helpful."

"My sister lived at Montereau and it was a very nice place. I liked that they had locked doors as their security system. There was a nurse 24/7 and a clerk. The dining room was gorgeous and they brought their own things in their rooms except cookware. The list of activities for the day were posted on a board, they took trips to the mall or grocery store. It seemed like the residents were happy there and I would recommend this place to others who needed that kind of assistance. "

"We liked Aberdeen Heights. I liked the staff. They were very friendly. They worked there for a long time, so they didn't have a big change of employees. I loved the facility. They had a lot of activities for residents. It was a very nice and beautiful place. A lot of the residents were very friendly as well. I felt like it's a place where someone would be very happy living and would feel like a home. The thing that impressed me the most was their activities director. They had a lot of activities that I thought were very fun and a whole assortment of stuff. They had a really nice dining room that was more like a restaurant. They actually had waitstaff that helps serve the residents. I was very impressed with staff. They came up and introduced themselves."

"As I drove up, I noticed it was quiet, clean, and the other residents were friendly. I noticed that there is a church right across the small parking lot which is perfect for my grandmother who likes to attend church on Sunday mornings. I met the assistant manager who was very nice and professional and we discussed the usual information like how much it cost to stay there, what was offered, etc. Then we got a small tour of the facility and saw the library, puzzle room/laundry, beauty parlor, living room, and the hall where they have a piano and a kitchen. They have a maintenance man on staff and is available for lighting pilot lights, fixing light bulbs, and general upkeep of the facility. Also, there is a school right across the street and the kids sometimes come over as a class and meet with the residents. Overall it was a nice place and my grandmother loved the atmosphere and already made a friend. Oh, they do allow pets under certain conditions which is similar to an apartment complex. "

"Living here has been the best experience. The staff and residents are like family. There is a wide variety of ages here so the activities are engaging, interesting, and fun. Therapy works well with there residents. They are kind and take notice of the level of care that there residents are needing. Do not hesitate to put your loved one here. This is a safe and enjoyable environment to live in!"

"My mother-in-law moved to Heatheridge Assisted Living. We chose it because it felt like a home rather than a hotel or a hospital or some weird combination of the two. The people there were just amazing. They were so caring and compassionate and bent over backward and worked so hard trying to get everything ready so that we could get my mother-in-law into a safe and caring situation. They have just been awesome. From the minute I walked in, on my first visit, with no clear benefit to themselves, they provided me with books and materials and some information that helped me to help her make the choices that she needed to make and have the conversations that she needed to have. They were interested in helping me. That was the first impression that I got, that they were just genuinely wanting to help and they have followed through with that at every turn. I have not had their food but dinner sure smelled good last night and more importantly, she likes their food. We've brought in things for her room and she'll be getting more. So, she'll be able to have her own things around her. Her room fits everything she needs to be comfortable, and some of the pieces from her home that were important to her. So, the room is adequate. It's about 300 square feet. She hasn't gotten involved with activities very much, but there have been a couple of groups that has been touring around and have reached out to her like a karaoke group and another singing group. She has joined in with them a little bit, and they made her very welcomed."

"My friend is in Ambassador's Courtyard. The whole atmosphere is very peaceful and calming. We chose it because it is an assisted living, and everything is provided in the sense that she has help with pills and with her bath without going to a regular nursing home. The staff are friendly and caring people. One price includes everything, so it is easier for us to deal with. The rooms seem to be larger than a couple of places we visited, so we feel that she has a little more space. It is all on one floor, and they have large halls. It is easier to get around because it is like one big circular thing. They have an inside courtyard that you can go to. They have activities every day, and most of them are like arts and crafts. They have somebody come to talk to you about the any topic that you want. In fact, they can decide what the topic can be next time. They have exercise in the morning. They have bingo, casino day, shopping day, and they take them out every Friday morning to the big Walmart to go shopping. They also have birthday parties and stuff like that. I would recommend them to others. "

"We are very pleased with Country Club of Woodland Hills. The staff is great and it has a really nice setting. Mom's apartment is clean, spacious, and nice. They have a lot of activities like Scrabble, going out to different stores, and restaurants, Bible studies, Bingo, and book clubs."

"My mom is at Legend at Mingo Road. It is exceptional and I am very happy. The staff is friendly. They go beyond what they need to do to make sure you're happy. They take care of every need that I've had when we've had it. We haven't had any problems whatsoever. And they made everything moving in really easy. I tried some of the food and that was pretty good, and my mother really likes it. I've eaten there once, and it was pretty good. She's going to go play bingo tonight. They have a therapy dog, ice cream social, cards, and TV watch groups. There is exercising two or three times a day. There are three or four activities, usually throughout the day, that they can participate in each day, but she hasn't been there long enough for me to tell you all that she utilizes. My mother's happy, so it's a good value. When I was looking around it's fair in price, actually, and when we got there they had some specials going, so it was even a little bit cheaper. It actually ended up being cheaper than the smaller unit would have been. We have not had a complaint, although we've only been there a little bit, but we've been dealing with them longer. They have a library, a salon, a TV, a bistro, puzzle room, and a couple outside areas they can go."

"My mom is a resident at Legends. The first impression was very good but after she moved in last Aug. things didn't continue to work out so well. My sisters and I really had to stay on top of everything before the staff finally got a clue as to how to take care of our mom. Now that she's been there for 6 months things are finally going smoothly. The main issue we have right now is the food. Not exactly healthy eating. My mom's been in the hospital 3 times already for water retention. The nurse and staff are very good though and the activities director is super. I did find out that corporate dictates the menu which I think is rediculous. When the chef made Thanksgiving dinner it was fabulous. "
