If I can give zero stars I would. I don't know where to begin. My father was a patient at this facility for only a week. In a matter of a week. This facility did not give him his required meds, misplaced inhalers, bruising on his eye and a lump on the head (which may required stitches), arm bruised due to blood work (which was not authorized) dehydration and lack of exercise. The nursing staff failed to properly insert a catheter. Patients only leave their beds for dining purposes only, maybe if there is an ac…

I would not recommend this facility. We brought our mother there for end stage dementia. We brought in her clothing and a handmade blanket that was made for her birthday. We have lost our dear mother and all we ask is that we be returned her personal items. We requested the blanket be returned but despite going there and asking for our item and calling daily, they will not give us an answer. It's the same runaround, that the persons that we are calling are unavailable. They never call back! When we went to pic…

My mother is in Aperion Care Oak Lawn. I think it's the best place for her right now, she seems to be getting very good care, and she's still getting therapy a couple of times a week. They're gonna be reassessing her to see if hospice is necessary for right now. Since she's been there, it's been good, because we actually get a hold of the nurses when we wanted to get information on her, and actually we could even talk to her. They'll bring the phone to her, and we can talk to her, but …

Please people check places before placing a family member there. The place smells of urine when you walk in, they have bugs flying around in the room, they do not change the sheets on the bed, they put something over it, very unacceptable. I am the health care field, and I was totally taken back, I could not believe the conditions in there. PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THIS FACILITY.

My dad was at Aperion Care Oak Lawn, and it was pretty good. The people are very, very nice and treated my father very well. The staff was very good. We have absolutely no complaints about this nursing, just a little under staffed. The physical department was really amazing. Their food was fine.

CriticalI visited this facility
I would not recommend this nursing home. Soon after passing the lobby into the hallway I was greeted by bad odors. In the large multi-purpose room that serves as an activity room, the bad smells continued and seemed to be enhanced by the heat and lack of ventilation. As if the bad odors were n't enough to turn me off, I was appalled by the residents' grooming. I know that this is an issue in many nursing homes, but still it was pretty bad. Many of the residents seemed to be wearing their breakfast on thei…
