Clean, good smelling facility. The nursing staff is excellent. Someone checks in on my mom every hour or so to make sure she is attending meals and events. The administrative staff are always available to answer questions or help with any needs. very happy my mom has such good care.

Okalee of Medina

4.6
The staff at Okalee of Medina is good, but we are not happy with all of the hidden costs that were not explained at the beginning and they say how they have a shuttle that goes out every week, which is true, but it is a joke. It only holds a few people and is nearly impossible to get on.
