I am grateful that they provide a safe place for my dad and they keep track of him and check on him every day, I appreciate that they provide meals and an opportunity for exercise and activities with other residents

Brookdale Oakwood (Offering HealthPlus) in Dayton, OH

I have told people that you get a safe place in a good part of town but I have concerns on the level of personal care she receives. She has been very dirty on several visits (hair and clothes) and the activities are few and far between. There not a exercise area.

Miller Farm Place in Dayton, OH

3.9
The care received is great, I the nurses and staff are wonderful. That is why I decided to take my Dad there. The facility needs to be updated for what the cost is. My experience has definitely been overwhelming, this was a very hard decision for me. I would recommend them.
