A family member of ours living in Denver with parkinson's and anxiety who was living at home alone, was taken here for rehabilitation when she had fallen. During her time in Gardens on Quail's nursing home she was able to recover, but decided to stay. She, as well as our family, decided that it was a safer and better lifestyle to continue living under the care of Gardens on Quail's nurses. Since moving in, her anxiety has been much less severe, and she has made many new friends. Not to mention that it is a beautiful place to call home. Many of our family members are living in Denver, so it makes for an easy drive being located just outside the city in Arvada. Thank you Gardens on Quail for superb service, we appreciate it!

Speaking from an employees perspective:…read more I have been on with the team for about 8 months now. I've worked in the field for 8 years ( so as you can imagine, I've had training and experience in several facilities) This place was absolutely draining, on all levels. The façade of a beautiful building, and well lit gardens, and exceptional " Care provided to the residents" is absolute delusion. I have watched our team, my residents whom I provide care to, and my own well being turn completely downhill, which is why I feel the need to speak on this. Management and HR are not friendly, or welcoming or empathetic towards care staff at all, instead they are rude and entitled and walk the building with nothing but a higher demeanor, than those who actually provide care to these residents and work extremely hard on the floor providing care, and respect and constant interaction to these residents. I have not had a single, welcoming or open minded- conversation with any management since our previous HR has left the building. I have instead ran into conversations where those who do their jobs, and do an amazing job at it, are consistently belittled by HR and management. Yet, those who are lazy but favorited by management are constantly allowed passes for behaviors and LACK of care to these residents. The job itself is stressful, yes. But we all get into this field even as Caregivers to do our jobs and do the best we can. We also have lives outside of work environments, and some harder than others. This is where survival mode and flight of fight play a role- but to those that show up everyday and WORK THE FLOOR- we are discarded and picked apart -daily, but also while being extremely understaffed and drained ourselves. Yet still- NO support from our HR or ED or management as a whole. I have never felt so out of touch with a work environment claiming to do so much good for these residents- meanwhile disregarding and completely out of touch with their employees whom actually work with these residents and are the ones providing care. Pay compensation and expectations are not lined up at all. all this goes to say- Please DO BETTER, for our residents, for your care staff. for OURSELVES. No job should be or feel this draining on every level.

Our agent set up a tour of the facility, during which Ryland showed us the respite room that was available. The next morning we elected to reserve the room and our agent sent in all paperwork and his patient chart. However, upon learning that my father had a history of mental illness, Ryland called and asked me a million questions and asked if he could meet him, to which I agreed. Multiple hours passed then Ryland sent a sheepish email to my agent saying that a resident's family had coincidently reserved the respite room while he was supposed to be meeting my dad but was "held-up". Does he really think I'm that stupid? Given the highly unlikely chance this was true, I asked if he could get him into an apartment, to which he replied "no". He explained that family has first priority, even though we were waiting on him to finalize the deal. I then emailed Carrie, the executive director, asking for clarification. She perpetuated the same implausible story of how the room was reserved. I then emailed her back, asking what options they had for apartments. If this story was true, wouldn't they take some accountability and try to work out a solution? No response to multiple emails. Just tell me the real reason why you won't accept him. Shame on you both!

We believe the main reason The Oberon is so wonderful is that it is privately owned and the owners are on-site most days. They are very accessible and really care. The remodeled estate on the hill truly feels like home and not a made-up corporate cookie-cutter business. The turnover of staff members seems to be much lower than at other assisted living facilities, so consistency of care is well maintained. The staff and residents are all treated with respect. Our mother loves the food and the gardening and the activities are awesome! We are grateful.
