I moved in in September. There are 15 floors so it takes the elevators a long time to arrive. Dietary needs help. They keep changing the menu and/or running out of food. Most wait staff are trained well, others are not or just plain lazy. They have a great, full activities calendar. I'm glad I moved. They have ILF, ALF, Skilled Nursing and Memory Care so when I need more care I just have to move down a few floors, not cross town.

Room for improvement

The food was of poor quality and sometimes to salty for the residents. Our loved ones necklace went missing and there was always a problem with our loved ones medication. The staff was nice but not as attentive as I had hoped.

Can't beat that view!

The staff was great. Friendly and attentive to my Mom's needs. She didn't care for the food so much. Especially considering each individual's diet needs. Her room was kept clean. I feel the windows should be cleaned more regularly on the outside. Lovely view, but a better tint on the glass would be nice. To keep the heat out. The a/c units seem outdated and it seems they need to work hard to keep up with the demands of that type of place. The size of the place was nice for what she needed it for. She enjoyed the activities. Happy hour, Bingo, music, movies etc..

The staff was great. Older facility that used to be a hotel. Has assisted, skilled nursing and memory care. Thorough tour with all questions/concerns answered. Had the feel of a skilled nursing home. Our family was looking for assisted living that had more of an apartment complex feel and we found that elsewhere.

Review for The Oaks of Clearwater

The building itself could use an upgrade, the food is alright and we still have yet to see the roll out of the care provided to her overtime. At this time I would give it a 3 overall so far. The view is lovely right there on the beach. Also, the price was mid-range of budget. With only other place charging less than the one we found.

Review for The Oaks of Clearwater

There have been issues with dining being too slow or them forgetting to put in her order. There was an incident with housekeeping, she came in and didn't announce herself as mom didn't hear her knock as the tv was on and she was in the bathroom with the door open. My mom looked up from the toilet and the housekeeper was standing in the doorway just staring at her. Other than that it's been pretty good. There are some wonderful people who work there and most are very friendly!

The facility is too big, 15 floors, the residents get lost in the shuffle, the med techs just leave the meds in the room and dont watch the resident take them. Respond time is unacceptable when the resident pushes their call button for an emergency. The staff do not care about the residents. They overcharge for everything, incontinence products, etc. It is a bad place to put your loved ones. I do not recommend it to anyone.

Found forever home for Mom

This place hit all our marks. Location, view, costs, activities, age in place capabilities, caring and committed staff. Wish we would have found this place years ago. While our mom’s overall health at 87 is great her dementia is ramping up. The Oaks of Clearwater starts residency at independent living through full care. Our mom loves everything about this place. We are grateful for the staff who help provide a friendly and caring atmosphere that makes this feel like “home” to our mom.

room for improvement- specifically with regard to skilled nursing.

With some good aspects. [name removed], second floor nurse, was excellent. The location of the facility was good. There were some standouts, but there were a lot of people that were just not happy to be there and were not kind to my husband. A lot of the staff were not qualified to handle my husband's health challenges. My husband's dietary needs were rarely honored. [name removed] did not participate in many activities. it is good to note that there are two elevators for the entire place... and there are 14 floors I think. And the dining room is on the first floor. Not great.

Assisted living services and site improved when a 14 story hotel and 29 villas are repurposed.

I give my move to the Oaks of Clearwater from River Commons Port Charlotte 2 years ago immediately after Hurricane Ian. A point of contention has been resident involvement in corporate decision making. A recently hired Executive Director has noticeably improved the situation withich better advanced notification of changes to site management. The two prior Executives during my first year did a very poor job of keeping residents informed as to how and when and if shortcomings in the physical plant and senior res care services would be improved. I think Corporate has gotten the message.

My mom who is living at The Oaks loves it there. She is in memory care and they keep her clean (no stains on her clothes) and she doesn't smell like urine!! They change her often. The Oaks is the best thing I did for my mom!!!

family's experience

Dining room is understaffed and food is average at best. Certain areas could use more deep cleaning. My mother in law is in independent living currently but will be transitioning to memory care at some point. We may move her to another facility for that since I've found out they never let the memory care residents outside.

The Oaks of Clearwater review

Dining service wait, additional housekeeping staff, site clearance of 29 two story villas with no information as to future parking and access, elevator repair/adequacy, outside lighting are all areas of improvement. As a early advocate and influencer for senior/assisted living in Oklahoma 1976-2008 I see positive signs of dramatic improvements in the Oaks since I moved from Port Charlotte after Hurricane Ian in October, 2022. The Oaks is on the path of reinvestment and reformulation of their ALS business model.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Florida’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Florida’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
