Rambling Oaks Assisted Living has been very nice. Up until the coronavirus, I was allowed to go and visit any time that I wanted. Everybody seemed really nice, and the place was clean. The rooms are really nice and they have different room sizes. Some of them have doors that go out into the courtyard while some don't. They have a living area, a bedroom area, a bathroom, walk-in closet and a kitchenette. They offered for me to try their meals but I haven't tried it yet. The staff had been very friendly and helpful, they also set up like a Facetime chat so I can talk to my loved one during the lockdown.

The staff who gave the tour at Rambling Oaks was really friendly. She showed us all around the building and explained everything, and she also gave us written information about it. The rooms we saw were smaller ones. They also talked about the activities.

My visit at Rivermont was fun. The place was very nice. The rooms they showed me were very nice and pleasant, and they had a lot of amenities. It's a really nice community. They had in-dining where you can put your own food, a beauty salon, a library, and activities. The staff who gave me the tour was very informative so I had a very good tour of the community. The staff member showed me all they have and he was very pleasant.

We visited Rivermont Retirement Community. They were wonderful. That’s where I would have put my mom. It was clean and really nice. They were so helpful when I was talking to them, and they gave us a really great tour. They bring people in, have games, puzzles, and a lot of activities. The dining area was really nice, and everybody could come, sit at the table, and talk. They have a meal plan, but you can also order off a menu. The common areas felt comfortable, and they have a library.

The staff at Brookdale Norman was very attentive and nice. The rooms were nice, and they had one-bedrooms, which were more like little apartments, as well as studios. They had all kinds of programs available for the seniors. The folks and the staff seemed very happy. It's a smaller facility, like a square with two hallways and rooms down both hallways. I would highly recommend them.

My mom is living at Rivermont. We chose it because it is nice and clean, and they have strong service. The staff members are good. It's really a place where residents can do things on their own, but it's fine. They have dominoes, puzzles, bowling, quilting, and cooking. They have a place where they can drink tea and coffee. They do a lot of things with them. The value is good too.

My father is in Rivermont Retirement Community. It's pretty. The staff is wonderful, very nice, very friendly, and interactive with the residents all the time. I'm usually there every day. Her food and the activities are great. They have karaoke, bingo, went bowling yesterday as one of their outings, have movie nights where they watch a classic movie, and watch a football game or basketball on the big screen in the living room. He has a small, one-room apartment, with a twin bed, but the model room had a queen, and it was fine. He has a recliner, a couple chairs, dresser, and TV. I looked at some of the larger rooms, but he didn't need them.
