Oakview Park in Greenville, SC
3.8
The staff I've worked with are kind and helpful. My father doesn't need much help so he doesn't make use of a lot of the amenities offered. The transport to the doctor is super helpful! Medication has been an issue, but we manage it now rather than having the facility do it.
