The staff at the Oberon are caring, kind and hard-working. My mom lived there for almost three years. But in the end, I don't trust the owners. Greg is a great salesman. Terri was defensive in my first interaction with her. When someone thinks I'm out to get them, its difficult to believe they will treat my loved one with fairness and respect. I tried to forget about it. Fast forward two tears and Terri's communications through the Medicaid qualification period ranged from obtuse to downright hostile. So when, within days of squeezing as much money as they could out of us, they started talking about my mom requiring "a higher level of care than they could provide", involuntary inklings of suspicion arose. When they said they had to formally discharge her on those grounds, and couldn't specify exactly what she needed that they couldn't provide, I started to wonder about the entire experience. They separately described her as "exit seeking" but in only one of the three reports i got did they say she made it as far as the parking lot, a location immediately beyond the sidewalk which is itself a place that patio chairs make a downright healthy place to visit. I cried not a few tears visiting 5 secure memory care units that accept Medicaid patients. Fortunately, with the help of several caring folks, I discovered that if I hustled my mom onto Innovage she could live at a much homier facility that Innovage would pay for. If I had it to do over, I would start with Gardens Care.

The staff at The Oberon House is amazing! They are connected to the residents such a way that they know what is going on daily with each of them. Mom loves it there and they take extremely good care of her.

When my Uncle needed care, we met with The Oberon House. The facility was just perfect. The owner was compassionate, professional and knowledgeable with all our options. It made the transition in such a trying time, easy. My uncle loved the staff. I was comforted to know he was getting great care while also being happy there. I couldn't recommend this place more.

My dad lived at The Oberon House from May 1, 2022 - January of this year, when he passed away. We weren't sure what to expect when we moved him, but found the staff at OH to be caring and present in every way. My brother and I also visited at least 4 days a week so we would know if there were issues. We found that my dad was getting the opportunity to be independent (in that he could choose to participate in the activities or not) but even if he declined to participate, the staff was very aware of how he was doing at all times. One of the things my dad wanted control over was sitting and drinking a coke while reading the paper every day. The front desk staff worked out a system where they would store his special stash of coke near the front desk so that when he came to the desk for his paper, they would give him his coke and the news. It made all the difference to him. It was clear my dad was declining at the end of last year. The Resident Director helped to get my dad connected with hospice but more than that, OH allowed my brother and me to be on-site to be with him as much and whenever we wanted. And their staff took care of US when we were spending the full days there with him too! I was so glad that he got to spend the latter portion of his life where there were people around him that were truly concerned about and cared for him. Gregg and Terri (Oberon House's long-time owners) were on-site daily, and also knew my dad and even spent dedicated, special time with him up until his last day. To have been surrounded by people that loved and cared for him like that, is all we could have asked for.

The Oberon House is a special place. Owners Gregg Dirks and Terri Tochihara-Dirks interact daily with the residents and staff, which sets the tone for a facility where people are authentic, affectionate, and genuinely caring. My 83-year-old mom is significantly disabled from a stroke. At The Oberon, I rest easy knowing that despite her challenges advocating for herself, I can count on the staff at all levels to address her needs and concerns immediately. It is rare to see the compassion and kindness I witness there. Front-desk staff, CNAs, QMAPs, dining room staff, the resident services director, the executive director, the facilities crew, housekeeping, and the on-site hair stylist all treat residents in a manner that says, “I see you, and I care about you.” Yesterday I attended an outdoor concert/picnic for residents. Staff stayed overtime or left to pick up their grandchildren only to return to participate in what felt akin to a family reunion. At The Oberon House there is no passing the buck or obfuscation. Family members are informed of what’s happening on a regular basis and treated with the same respect afforded the residents. If you want a true “Place for Mom (or Dad)” that feels like home, come and see what Gregg and Terri have to offer.

We are so happy with the staff and owners of the Oberon House after placing my mother-in-law there. She is happy and stimulated. It is such a relief to know that she is receiving the best care and thriving. They kept everyone safe during COVID with their pro active actions and we appreciate their dedication.

My mother recently passed away but the last three years of her life was spent at the Oberon House. She loved living there! Everyone of her helpers from the housekeeping staff to the aides, nurses, activity director, administrator Brenda and owner Gregg demonstrated such love and respect for her. We so appreciate the good, dedicated staff who even thru COVID made mom happy. I highly recommend The Oberon! It’s big enough to have good amenitites and small enough that every resident gets lots of special attention.

My mother lived at the Oberon for almost six years. We chose it because it had a homey feel. Because I am an RN, I know how labor intensive caring for the elderly can be. The staff cared for her the way I would care for an elder, and kept me informed about anything out of her ordinary day. I ate with Mom once a week and always enjoyed the meals. They had a variety of activities for different levels of participation. No assisted living facility can meet 100% of expectations 100% of the time, but I believe the Oberon staff did an excellent job trying.

My mother has lived at The Oberon House since 2013. We are so please with the attentive and friendly care of all the staff. We are so pleased with the conditions of the facilities and the cozy home feeling of Moms private rooms and the common areas. We are pleased with the interactive planned activities organized and facilitated by a team. We are also pleased with the close friendships Mom has formed at the Oberon House. Beyond the in-house activities, Mom leaves for her private activities with ease. We visit Mom often and are always welcomed warmly, and can tell that our mother is well loved and respected by all at this small, privately own assisted living home. My appreciation is unending for the owner Greg and all of his professional, caring and accessible staff. With gratitude, and my personal recommendations, Carema Cook-Masaud
