“My husband was transferred to Columbus Oaks after a TBI and several hospital stays. Takeshia was so compassionate and helpful during the admission process and during a very difficult time for us. The staff she introduced me to were also very kind and reassuring.”

★★★Suzanne Mazac · 2025-10-01 · via Google
“Spoke to the Admission Coordinator. She answered ALL of my questions and explained the process of admitting a resident. Then she took me on a tour. Again, answered all of my questions and encouraged me to call if I have any concerns. They told me they were in the process of remodeling. Never actually saw any evidence of it. The meal trays in the rooms need to be upgraded, among other things…”

★★★★★Linda Koby · 2024-10-27 · via Google
“This is an exceptional place. The care my Mother receives is excellent. The residents are treated with respect and very well cared for. They are readily available to help with concerns and to answer questions. We made the right choice in deciding to place her at Columbus Oaks.”
