Storey Oaks of Oklahoma City

I brought my loved one to Storey Oaks 4 months ago. I go and check on my loved one daily.
Upon my arrival of placing my loved one, the staff immediately asked my loved ones name and also mine. I have been so impressed that all employees from the kitchen staff, custodial staff and the staff attending to daily needs of the residents, call me by name and always my loved one by name and need. Everyone has been so helpful and loving to our family.
After losing my mother to Alzheimer’s, I know how difficult the disease is to care for for family and the staff that attends to our loved ones. The patients can be difficult and hard. During these hard times, I have seen the staff love patients and talk them down during difficult times. I couldn’t be more impressed with the staff at Storey Oaks. If my mother were still living, I would have placed her in the care of Storey Oaks.

My mom is a new resident at Storey Oaks. The experience from when Scott came to evaluate her and spent a lot of time with me talking about what she likes and what helps to soothe her anxiety to them coming back later the same day to pick her up in their van and then getting her settled in her room was so nice and comforting to me. From the moment we wheeled her through the door the staff welcomed her by name and she, who constantly wanted to leave the nursing home she was in, has not once asked me to take her home. She is in a place where all the other patients have the same disease. No one laughs at her. No one makes her feel like she is different. The staff are trained to live with Dementia/Alzheimer's patients. They know how to work with Sundowner's. The food is great, the activities keep them involved and its a good, clean, safe haven for my mom. I see her almost every day and can eat lunch or dinner with her. If you have a family member who needs memory care you should check Storey Oaks out. I'm glad I did!

As a present staff member, I can honestly say this is the most compassionate facility I have ever worked in!! The staff from the start are trained adequately on job expectations and about Dementia/Alzheimer's and how to help our " loved ones ( because they become our family too.... ) " Transition through the progression of this illness. I work with an amazing group of men and women dedicated to keeping the spark alive ( so to speak ) in our loved ones, as to promote the fullest life possible!!! Our administrator constantly engages us in wanting to become better educated in this field to better the lives of those we care for!!! How awesome is that! Who else takes knowledge is power and both he and the RCD promote in every day! I love this my job, I love my co-colleagues, I love my bosses, and more importantly, I LOVE my " Loved Ones! "
