Very unprofessional staff, they send you in circles. I can’t never speak with a supervisor to understand what’s going to with ur love one Who is deemed incompetent and does not have their right mind. Unbelievable, They kept my sister an No one thought to pick up the phone and call me to make me aware she wouldn’t be returning home .

I don’t how Public Health hasn’t shut this place down. My mother was admitted Beginning of August 2025 she came out worse than what she went in. No amount of Apologies will heal !!

*** The Director of Clinical Services and Patient Advocate license was placed on probation for 2 years in 2020 and faced federal indictment for spending tens of thousands of federal dollars meant for the less fortunate on pricey personal expenses. Yet this person was hired to be director of Clinical Services and Patient Advocate. Unbelievably shocking. Avoid this facility at all costs. The leadership is incompetent at best and negligent at worst. Communication with the Nurse Practitioner is nearly impossible, even when legal documentation (Power of Attorney) is provided. Calls and emails go unanswered, and responses—when given—are often contradictory and misleading. My brother was discharged on March 14 with a bandage on his foot that was dated February 27—a clear sign of neglect. This is just one example of the many serious issues at this facility. They seem unaware of basic patient rights and provide substandard care. While a few staff members were kind and attentive, the overall management of this place is unacceptable. If you care about your loved ones, do not send them here. Finally, the number and email address provided in every review reply go unanswered.

I have never forgotten this place but couldn’t remember the name so that’s why my post is happening a year later. If you truly love your family, DO NOT send them here! I didn’t care that the facility was old and outdated. What I truly cared about was how horribly disgusting this place was. We were subjected to one rest room for all patients to use. The bathroom sink worked, yet there was no soap. The day room had a sink with soap, yet didn’t work. The place reeked of urine and feces. The bathroom floor, from the the sink to the toilet was covered with used toilet paper and the floor was constantly wet with only I can think of was urine. The whole dayroom smelled worse than a portapotty and we were required to eat, do activities, and watch tv in the stench. I discovered later that the feces smell was actually several residents had c-diff, a very contagious, very horrible stomach infection. We were locked out our rooms all day, except for 1 1/2 hour break, forcing people like me who were disabled to sit in the day room on uncomfortable chairs that aggravated my physical heath symptoms. The day nurse was cold and uncaring when asking for meds( such as nausea meds or Tylenol)that were not on the morning, afternoon or night schedule. The only saving grace were the highly overworked day techs who were responsible for everything, including our activities, and daily counseling. I was overdrugged by the psych Dr, the night nurse was the only desk staff that was kind besides the techs. By the time my 72 hour hold was done, I was scared and exhausted enough to literally say anything positive to get me out that place. I felt horrible for the patients who were forced to stay there longer. The lady who last interviewed me to see if I was well enough to go home was cold and unkind, I was afraid she would make me stay longer. Phone calls to family were short, timed and a staff member sat by the door which was opened so I was afraid to say anything negative for fear they would keep me longer. I am aware that their will be moments in my life where I might need hospitalization again but i fear ever having to return to Oceans!

Oceans provides incredible healthcare to a patient population that can be overlooked at times. It's difficult to find a healthcare system that truly cares about the patients and their needs.
