Small and Homey
Decide what's most important to you before picking a place. We liked Alderman Oaks because it has a family atmosphere, is small and homey. It is not corporate, not big and not glitzy. Decide if you want your loved one to stay in their own room or if it's okay that they move to a different floor when it's time for assisted living. We liked that our mom can be on the first floor so it's easy for her to take her dog out. The facility is not handicapped accessible after business hours however, and they have not been amenable to making what would be pricey updates to their main entrance in order to make it handicapped accessible after office hours. The food has been very good. They we're missing a key staff member when my mom moved in, and without that staff member, the moving in process was quite disorganized. Things have settled down, and our mom is doing okay. There is subtle pressure to join the in-house nursing Care Management and in-house physician programs that are offered, which we have decided not to do. Alderman Oaks has been good about transportation for appointments and bringing meals to our mother when she had to be in medical quarantine. One of the best things is the location in downtown Sarasota in a quiet residential neighborhood. They have nice jazz performances at Alderman Oaks, exercise classes, and try to keep people engaged.

You all seem to treat my family like YOUR family!!!
I am hoping for a chance to meet you all in person, someday, soon. I worked in a nursing home, and have visited many facilities. Your family-run, home-like atmosphere is very unique, and our mom is very happy!!! She enjoys her neighbors, the staff who care for her, the food, and activities. My sister is a Florida resident who is there for Mom, too. I cannot be more thankful to all of you for the love you show and the excellent care. Again, hope to make the trip from Pennsylvania, soon to meet you all...... Thank you for everything!!!

Everything your looking for and more!
If you are looking for a great retirement/ assisted living facility do not bother looking any further. Alderman Oaks is the BEST facility out there! Hands down! [Name removed] the owner along with his staff are fabulous! My loved one lived there for 10 years and was taken premium care of. The entertainment, the on going activities, the outings, the housekeeping, the food, the laundry service and quality of care is stellar! Thank you so much [Name removed] and all the staff of Alderman Oaks for all your excellent care and love to my dear [Name removed]. You are soarly missed.

I absolutely LOVED visiting this community! I could easily see my grandparents living here. The staff were all very attentive to the residents' needs, the food was surprisingly amazing (Thank you Chef Mary!) and above all the residents seemed alive. I was able to the painting class they offer, and it looks like a lot of fun. The jewelry class and nail salon also looked like fun activities for my grandma. I know they had many other activities, but those three really caught our attention! I appreciate the affordability, and the quality is amazing. I'm beginning to think this is where I would like to live here when the time comes! Our move in date is set for this fall!

A great place for mom!
We looked at several places for mom and Alderman Oaks fulfilled our list for the place we wanted. The management there was very helpful and took care of moving her for us. She is very happy with everyone there, the food, location, just about everything. It was so nice to meet the owner and know that he is around to watch over things and be there to answer any questions. There is only one draw back and they don't have a vehicle there to accommodate an electric wheel chair. They did say they would look into the matter! If I were looking for myself, that would be where I would stay!
