Spring Oak Assisted Living of Forked River

My mom has just become a resident as of 2/14/17. I'm adding a review now because of how I was handled as an over-stressed, overwhelmed, frightened daughter entering a season of life that is so extremely delicate and scary. Most (90%) of the executive staff is helpful and ease the transition as best they can without making you feel as if your loved one is a "cash cow" and without sounding harsh, "a body in a bed =$$$...The support staff on the other hand (nurse, aides) are EXCEPTIONAL! We had a rough first and second day that can only be described as, "you can't make this up" with my mom and her declining diesese????. They (Mimi and Michelle) were compassionate and caring when even I couldn't take the stress. The serving staff (dining) are a bit harsh and rough on the residents and could use a bit more training in human kindness. After all these residents are far from charity and pay a substantial rent/fee for their home. Time will tell as to the care and kindness I will observe and critique as the weeks and months go by...I will update and adjust when necessary! We all should be more vocal in demanding superior care for our senior loved ones! We owe them our existence and should be treasured ????
