About Shady Oaks Assisted Living

WELCOME! Families Find Shady Oaks “Three months after my mom was discharged from the hospital, we were told she could not go from rehab back to her assisted living facility where she had been living for the last eight years. Faced with little time and no easy choices we were very fortunate to have found Tyson… From day one Tyson and his staff provided mom compassionate, individual care. And mom told me after each…

Highly recommend

Everyone at Shady Oaks is so friendly and helpful. They have 2 full time chefs and the food is very good. I had live in help at home for over 3 years. My husband looks the best he has in a long time. I think it's because they have him on a schedule. He gets his meds at the same time every day and they get him up and out of bed every day. I believe keeping him on a schedule is the reason he's doing so well. There is an RN in the building 24/7, several aides and the owner lives next door and is there every day

Review for Shady Oaks Assisted Living

When I went there it was buzzing with activity. Yes, I would recommend it- 100%. The aides are loving and attentive. When I came here today my husband was outside with a bunch of other residents enjoying the warm weather and the breezes.

I give them all a 5 as Shady Oaks is a very well run facility. They sent me an update on my mother's recent visits from their doctor and changes in her medication just today. The staff onsite is very nice and efficient. The food is great and they will accommodate different diet needs

I would recommend it. All the staff have been kind and caring to my loved one and the owner has been accommodating to him in his requests. My loved one's answer to me when I ask if he has any complaints is a very positive, "not in this place". He is enjoying all the attention he is given and all the activities he participates in. Which, of course, delights me and his extended family.
