I toured Oakmont at Gordon Park, and looked at their assisted living level. I found the place to be nice, very pleasant and clean and had a pleasant atmosphere. The staff member who assisted me was very responsive, did a very good job, and appeared to have our interest in mind so I'm pleased. The living atmosphere also seemed to be very nice. It's single level, it looked very nice and there are courtyards. They offer several different things for the residents to do based on their needs. The rooms that I saw also appeared to be very nice, I saw a single room which seemed to be well taken care of and clean. I saw a very nice dining area which was like a restaurant. They have plenty of activities and you can choose whether or not to take it.

Oakmont at Gordon Park was very nice. They were informative, helpful, and gave us some insight. The place itself had lots of light and beautiful, secure courtyards with large porches surrounding it. The rooms were very nice and the bathroom was very accommodating for a wheelchair. They had arts and crafts, gardening, bingo, and scheduled activities.

My mother moved into Oakmont, which seems to be a wonderful, well-run facility. They're wonderful. The staff has been very attentive, patient, and kind. She enjoys her interactions with the staff as much as she possibly could. She said the food is excellent.

I chose Oakmont at Gordon Park for my wife. Her room is very nice. Things are clean and very roomy and the community seems to be very well managed. I’ve not become very familiar with a lot of the staff, but they seem to be fine, and my wife seems to be thriving under their care. I did not expect her to live very long but she seems to be doing better than she was in a nursing home. They have a lot of activities. She has reached the point where everything has to be pureed in order for her to eat. They are feeding her, and she’s eating very well.

We had visited several ASL facilities in the area and had found Oakmont at Gordon Park to be one of the most inviting atmospheres . The outdoor areas are very appealing with beautifully landscaped spaces to walk or visit with friends. Both the ASL and Memory Care Wings have similar spaces, sizing a bit smaller in the Memory Care. Most of the families we had visited had nothing like this to offer. Outside spaces are important . We also liked the size of the facility and the staff who seem very caring. So far we have been very pleased with the facility, most importantly mom seems to be happy here and beginning to feel like it's her home.

Oakmont at Gordon Park is a premier facility and has Assisted Living and Memory Care. I have a family member in the Memory Care area. The facility is less than a year old and the rooms are well appropriated for the residents. I have been impressed with the entire staff and the management group. Costs seem to be very competitive. Meals are nutritious and not the standard hamburger, hot dog or sandwich residents receive at other facilities. Finally, activities staff are very engaged and truly seem to care about the residents. My family and I are extremely happy with the care our family member receives. Check the facility out. ...it is the best I have seen in the Tri City area.

Oakmont at Gordon Park was very pleasant and very nice. It's a little bit more expensive for me, but I did like it very much. It's just not in a convenient location for me. They have very nice rooms, and overall the place is very well-appointed and very comfortable. Lunch was very delicious, nice, and delightful. They served a very good soup and a delicious chicken salad sandwich. The whole lunch was quite a nice experience. The staff was very good about answering questions, and they gave me lots of information. They said there's a laundry, and they can do your clothes. They had a little kitchenette with a refrigerator and sink so that was a very nice extra amenity in the unit.
