“River Oaks took excellent care of my dad. The staff was so friendly to the patients and their guests. Clean and happy environment.”

★★★★★Garry · 2025-09-03 · via Google

“River Oaks Nursing & Rehabilitation Center was a pleasant surprise! The staff members were genuinely good people who performed their jobs in a courteous and professional manner. Never had a problem. The staff even treated me and another guy to a party on our birthdays (same day). This was the fourth facility I've been in and it is by far the best!”

★★★★★Rilyn Paul · 2025-01-27 · via Google

“One of the best nursing homes in the south. The overall care has improved tremendously. The staff is very friendly, welcoming, informative, and supportive. This includes the administrative staff. This facility is definitely not perfect, but I can honestly say that it’s moving in the right direction.”
