Enjoyed our visit
Overall very impressed with the facility and staff. Suites were very well appointed and very pleasant. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Excellent value for money. We did eat lunch which was ok. Service in the dining room was excellent. We realize that it is very difficult to please everyone when it comes to food and perhaps it was just our menu item choice on the day of our visit. Would consider The Oaks as very high on our list of choices for my mom.

I recommend The Oaks at Nipomo Assisted Living to anyone looking for an assisted living facility in Nipomo, California, for their loved one. The staff and residents are very friendly, at The Oaks, and there are a lot of activities; great food, and it’s a beautiful Assisted Living Home. The staff at The Oaks are caring and they do a good job with helping the residents. [name removed], the director of The Oaks does a good job managing The Oaks, and communicates well with residents and families, all updates. We are grateful for the care my mother in law is receiving at The Oaks; she enjoys living there and has new friends! Thank you.

My Dad feels cared for and safe.
I was looking for a place for Dad when he started to need more care with ADLs and becoming more confused. And also looking for a higher standard of professionalism. Dad feels cared for and loved at the memory care unit at the Oaks. In his last residence Dad did not participate in the activities and was isolated in his room. He is starting to come out and join some of the activities now and become more social. The on-site therapy group is really doing a great job and Dad is safer on his walker now and getting in and out of the car and chairs more safely. I really like the communication system. When they know I’m coming to take Dad somewhere they take care to make sure he is ready to go. Raquel, the director, does a real good job. She is available to talk to me about Dad and really helpful. The staff appear well-trained and all are genuinely loving toward my Dad and others. They invite family to celebrations and special fun activities. I highly recommend the Oaks at Nipomo.

My tour of The Oaks at Nipomo
We toured this facility, the tour itself was relatively poor. The facility was very loud. Also, they couldn't remember the names of who they were touring. Considering it was a private tour.

Would Recommend The Oaks
I'm very satisfied with them. The number one thing that stands out is that their memory care unit is enclosed within the facility. That's a big deal for us, so our love one isn't opening a door and hearing an alarm go off. The staff is excellent, although sometimes it's hard to get through to the general staff when I call. The facility is clean overall. My loved one says she likes the food. And it's a good deal for the money.

Overall a good community, but food service could use some help
Our loved one is not very happy with the meal service that is the biggest complaint. When they get to the dining room the whole experience takes about 1-2.5 hours, so the service quality is pretty poor. Due to the covid restrictions the activities have been shut down for the most part, except for this last month.

The bill collector just raised the prices on specific care. My loved one has had personal belongings stolen. None of the staff seem to be doing anything about this. They've not encouraged my loved one to participate in any of the activities they have available.

We chose The Oaks at Nipomo because of the location, it was close to family and it is also a newer facility. It was built for what it is instead of being renovated. The room sizes here seem adequate for her needs. They have plenty of activities provided for the residents to participate in. I would definitely recommend.

Nice facility and great staff
We (my sister for whom we were seeking a new living situation, myself and my husband) were very pleased with our initial experience with The Oaks at Nipomo dealing with the sales director ([Name removed]). We had agreed to certain concessions and expected that they would be honored. However, [Name removed] went on vacation, and someone from corporate, [Name removed], came on the scene. She was rude, pushy, a lousy communicator, and would not honor the concession agreed upon with the sales director. As a result of our dealings with [Name removed], we were ready to go Merrill Gardens in Santa Maria instead of The Oaks. We ultimately did move my sister into The Oaks and have, fortunately, not had to deal with [Name removed] again! All of the other Oaks staff we have encounter have been very nice, caring and helpful. One thing that could be improved is to ensure the material provided to prospective residents clearly explains the services available. For example, nothing in the material provided indicated that transportation for residents is free within a 12 miles radius for medical appointments, or that transportation is only provided on Tuesdays and Thursdays. There are some other areas in the which material could provide more detail. Perhaps The Oaks staff should incorporate into the material answers to questions they are frequently asked by residents. My sister loves the food at The Oaks and has gained weight since moving there, which is good as she needed to gain quite a bit of weight. The menu is varied, tasty and, for the most part, healthy. I would like to note, however, that the monthly rent is a quite a bit more than Merrill Gardens and some other senior living communities in the area. This may be the reason The Oaks has so many vacant units.

Great staff in the memory care unit, helpful, caring, and friendly. We were out of town, my mother in law has a corn on her little toe, one of the staff members purchased her a pair of flip flops with her own money. I thought that was above and beyond her duties. Very sweet care taker. My mother in law feels like shes at home, were very happy with the facility. We couldn’t ask for better care.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the California regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about California regulations for Assisted Living.
