Oakland heights is a great facility with staff who are very professional and caring. I had the opportunity to do a clinical rotation with my students at this facility, everyone was very welcoming.

I want to say what a wonderful person and worker Julius has been. I’ve had a long stay here at Oakland Heights & he has been a high lite & I will miss him terribly. He is excellent at his job, dedicated, efficient, & kind. And he is joyful, funny, & sweet to everyone. Julius is a great worker, & we love him.. There are other nurses and cna’s who are special as well but will address them separately later. I have found most everyone here to be kind & thoughtful& very helpful & have made some super-special lifetime friends.

My mother was a resident at the Oakland Heights facility for just over 11 years after suffering a stroke that prevented her from walking, dressing and generally caring for herself. The first several years were under the auspices of the Salem Lutheran Home, which was a nonprofit organization that had managed the property for decades. It was a very caring, high quality institution. Salem could not afford to maintain the facility and it was sold, in part to an assisted living operator. The nursing and rehabilitation portion was leased on a very long term basis to Aspen Healthcare, which is a for profit company that continues to run the facility today. I was concerned that the quality of care might suffer as a result of this change, but that was not the case. The level of concern and attention paid to residents at Oakland Heights is just outstanding. Staff turnover is pretty low--and certainly this place shines in comparison to other facilities I've seen in the area when visiting residents there. I don't recommend having a loved one reside in a skilled nursing facility for 10+ years. It is less than ideal in most respects. However, I believe that Oakland Heights is a place that can manage that well. and would not hesitate to use it. I recommend it highly.

My aunt went to Oakland Heights after a fall and I am very grateful for everything they did for her. The facility was very nice, it was very clean, she loved her room and never complained about the food. She could not stop talking about her amazing therapy team as well. Karen was amazing!! She is a manager and also was my physical therapist and she really knows her stuff! She runs a great rehab team and is a skilled and friendly therapist. When she was not working with my beloved aunt, Tom her physical therapy assistant stepped in. He developed a great relationship with her as well. Her occupation therapist Celeste was so helpful as well. I am forever thankful to the rehabilitation team at Oakland Heights. I highly recommend this facility!
