Community Reviews
Independent Assisted Living in a Suburbian Setting
reviewed on: 06/02/2021 by Steven SMoved my father to Allegria at the Oaks almost 2 months ago and we have seen a big improvement with his social skills and health since then. He lived alone for over 3 years, since my mother had died, and now, he's eating 3 meals a day again, socializing again, and enjoying life. He has dementia, but is able to take care of his personal needs. He's in the Independent Living area, so I cannot comment on the Memory Care area. Of all the places we searched for, this is the only one that he could afford and the area is very suburban and not like living in an institution. Whenever I needed something, the Maintenance Team took care of his needs and the Nursing Staff is kind. The administration team is very friendly and helpful when I ask dumb questions (it's not like I've done this before). Thank you to the staff for taking great care of dad.
It's ok, it doesn't seem like there is enough staff.
reviewed on: 12/19/2013 by SonIt's ok, it doesn't seem like there is enough staff. They couldn't find her for like 20 minutes, they didn't know where she was maybe she's upstairs maybe she's downstairs. She was in somebody elses room, and they weren't around and she was sleeping in their bed. I don't know if it's that big a deal, as long as she is not hurting anybody maybe it's ok to be wandering around. It seems like they have activities, my mom is not gonna play bingo and card games thought. They are having family night, a big party with food and everyone's welcome with a guy from a Motown band that I recollected. The food is ok, I had it a couple times and I ate it. I think my mom likes it. They always have a good desert they will bring her a decalf and she thinks it's real coffee. I just thought it was kind of fatty. I had some kind of chicken goulash I thought it was bland and kind of blah and I struggled through it, and they had some kind of rice pudding and she loves that. If they had a few more staff members keeping an eye that would be nice. Ultimately I would recommend Sierra Oaks for it's value. If you were able to visit fairly frequently you would be able to keep a better eye on it. It is older. It's clean but it's not new.
Great experience with the memory care unit
reviewed on: 08/04/2021 by anonymousWe chose Allegria at The Oaks because they were very helpful, honest, and upfront about the care that they provided and the cost. They really worked with us in terms of transporting mom from her previous facility to Allegria. They have been excellent with communication especially with us not being able to go in. If I need an update I email them or give them a call and they are great with response time. They do offer shared rooms as well that cuts down on the cost tremendously. The room are very nice and there is privacy inside the shared rooms with a room divider. The residents do not spend a lot of times in their rooms, the majority of the day they are out doing things in the common areas.
We did tour. Seemed nice, close.

Great care for your loved one
reviewed on: 01/22/2021 by CharlesWe chose Allegria at The Oaks because the value was competitive with others we looked at and the location was good for our family. He also did have a roommate option which not everyone did, so the price is cut down more. They are very good with communication, especially during covid. I would recommend the facility to others.
