Living Environment

Cleanliness & Maintenance: Cleanliness receives mixed feedback—some areas and residents are described as neat, but multiple reviews cite bed bugs, roaches, mold, and unpleasant smells, indicating inconsistent upkeep.

Atmosphere & Community Feel: The social environment appears variable; some residents feel content and well cared for, while others describe tension with staff and dissatisfaction with activities.

Safety & Security: Safety features include a 24-hour call system and supervision, but some reviews mention call lights going unanswered and concerns about theft, suggesting room for improvement in consistent care.

Family Experience

Family experiences at Scarlet Oaks Care Center range from gratitude for helpful, accommodating staff to distress over unclean conditions and unprofessional behavior. Some visitors appreciate the ease of check-in and the visible care given to residents, while others report feeling misled by marketing and deeply concerned about their loved one’s well-being due to maintenance and staff issues.

Care Approach

Scarlet Oaks Care Center provides a continuum of care with nursing support, medication management, and assistance for daily living activities. Staff responsiveness is highlighted in some reviews, but inconsistent care quality and reports of neglect after hours suggest that while the structure for good care exists, execution may vary.

Value Consideration

With monthly costs averaging $4,498—below the local average—Scarlet Oaks Care Center positions itself as a value-focused option. However, families should weigh the lower price against mixed reviews on care quality and facility conditions to determine if the value meets their expectations.
