What to ask about before you visit

  • $38,527 in federal fines

    CMS has fined this facility across 3 penalty action(s).

  • Nursing staff turnover of 61%

Our read on Oak Forest Health And Rehabilitation

Staffing at Oak Forest runs 3.83 nurse hours per resident day, roughly in line with the national figure of 3.86, but it thins out on weekends, about 7% below the home's own weekday level. The bigger issue is who's giving that care: annual turnover sits at 61.3% against a 45.8% national average, meaning most of the staff you'd meet this year likely won't be there next year. That churn shows up in the record. Inspectors last visited in June 2025 and found 32 deficiencies, four serious enough to cause harm or put residents in jeopardy, one tied to abuse, drawing $38,527 in fines.
