My grandpa came here for rehab after breaking his hip. I brought him 9 outfits and 3 pairs of pjs and after the first 3 outfits disappeared I asked how I could keep from loosing his clothes in the wash and they told me to write his name and room number on the tag so I did. Hes now left with only pjs and a shirt thats I brought and Im taking him home pretty much right now. At one point he had been wearing the same shirt with no pants for 4 days. Also, throughout his stay here we kept trying to ask for updates face to face and over the phone. Everyone in person didnt know anything and

Very rude staff! My first time stepping into the facility I was greeted by a lady raising her voice telling me not to come in and to get out and shut the doorall because I didnt have an appointment. Highly regret selecting this facilityI cannot believe how poorly I was treated. Will NEVER use them again for any of my family.

The staff is great, the facility lacks more modern amenities. It can take awhile to get someone to answer your call light. Understaffed mainly at night & weekends. Food is ok. Needs more variety or more choices. You can order & have delivered. I requested to speak to administrators on one occasion but he never came.

Northern Oaks is a quaint little facility located on the North side of Abilene. It has been through a lot of changes ,but the staff there are dedicated and willing to make you feel at home. Courtney Hollis is a special lady to work with and will help you through the process of placing a loved one.
