and Street Map

 

Located in a quiet, natural area on a beautiful wooded site in West County, Oak Forest is in an Oak forest.  Deer frequently come to feed and can be watched from resident rooms as well as from the therapy area.  The local bird habitat provides lots of color and fun.  The residence offers a peaceful environment, yet is minutes away from doctors and other professional medical services.

Care with a special touch...

We believe that our residents feel better when they are part of a community that helps them feel at home.  Oak Forest's spacious environment provides varied opportunities for social interactions and friendship while ensuring a high level of specialized health care services.

Respite and Hotel Service

Our Respite and Hotel Programs are designed to provide temporary nursing and/or residential care for a loved one for one to thirty days.  Respite Care is temporary, 24-hour care in a skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility.  This type of care may be needed following surgery or illness.  It is flexible, and can be adjusted to meet your needs.  The cost of Respite varies based on the services needed.  Usually, it is a daily charge, which covers accommodations, meals and 24-hour nursing care, including administration of medications, activities and other amenities.

Hotel stays can be used for a variety of reasons - for a weekend away, a family emergency, a long-awaited vacation or business travel.  Sometimes families use Hotel stays as a way to "try-out" the move into a skilled nursing facility.  This reduces the stress of an anticipated move as well as allowing a trial without a commitment to long-term placement.

You can expect the best...

Providing quality care and exceptional customer service is our continuing goal.  The professional nursing staff, as well as other dedicated staff, is committed to providing each resident with the very best service available.
