Our staff understands that choosing a health care facility is a new experience for our patients and their families and we are sensitive to the importance of helping new patients feel welcome and at home. Patients and their families are included in the important decision-making process of care planning. And we encourage patients to pursue interests, and activities that encourage a meaningful, fulfilling lifestyle.

Our team of health care professionals is led by a licensed administrator and includes our medical director, consultant pharmacist and consultant dietician. From the director of nurses and our rehabilitation staff, to the activity director and social worker, our staff works to address the special needs of each patient.

Our rehabilitation unit features a separate focus. Our fully-equipped, rehabilitation gym is staffed by physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech therapists. While many of our patients are able to return home, our goal is to get every patient functioning at their highest level and capability.

We are dedicated to our patient's long term health care needs and stand ready to answer any questions you might have. Together we can provide the quality care and lifestyle our patients deserve.

Wound Care Program
Our wound care program is designed to address the risk factors associated with skin breakdown common to the elderly. Staff has been specially trained to recognize and treat skin breakdown.

Hospice Specialty
When families are facing the many complexities of life cycles, they need support, compassion and understanding. The Green Oaks staff works very closely with area hospice agencies to provide a peaceful, supportive environment while keeping the resident comfortable.
