I'm thrilled with Oakwood - the staff treated our family like family from day one, kind, attentive and compassionate, and Grandma is genuinely happy and settled. The place is spotless, peaceful and home-like with lovely grounds, excellent housekeeping, home-cooked meals and a full activities program with regular outings. Move-in was smooth, transportation and care are dependable, and I confidently highly recommend Oakwood.
About Oakwood Village Assisted Living and Memory Care
Oakwood Village Assisted Living and Memory Care offers a range of care levels for seniors, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and home care, and the building is licensed to support up to 124 residents under license #317000237, which means there's a true mix of people, some who are pretty independent and others who need more help, and everyone gets their own apartment with individual climate control, private balconies or patios, full kitchens with appliances, and in most units there's a stackable washer and dryer, plus there's weekly housekeeping and laundry services included, so no one has to worry about keeping up with chores. The apartments come in several layouts like one-bedroom, studio, or kitchenette floor plans, which helps people pick what fits their needs, and there are smoke detectors in every room, along with a 24-hour emergency call system, so people feel as safe as possible day or night.
The staff is available around the clock, and there are personal assistants and nurses for health care, with specialized care such as medication management, diabetic care, incontinence care, non-ambulatory care, and regular physical therapy, and even for those needing 12-16 hour nursing, health is closely watched, and they set individual goals for every resident, especially in memory care, where treatment options change as conditions progress. Oakwood Village also has strong memory care programs for those with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, aiming to reduce confusion and prevent wandering, and they adjust care plans depending on how much help someone needs, so no one is left behind and everyone is considered.
Residents receive daily meals made by chefs and meal planners, focusing on good nutrition and dietary needs, and there's restaurant-style dining for those who can enjoy it, so eating feels a bit special, plus the community makes sure people with restrictions get what works for them, and that's important for comfort and health. The leadership and staff are described as friendly, helpful, and kind, and communication with families and visitors is open so everyone knows what's going on; people seem to feel welcome here, and there are even awards for community excellence and best activities that speak to ongoing efforts.
Exercise programs, activity calendars with arts and crafts, movie nights, socials, church services, devotional activities, and live entertainment keep residents busy if they want, and memory care residents have customized activity options so no one's left out, allowing people to stay as active as they're able, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. For people who like spending time outside, there are walking paths, indoor and outdoor common areas, and transportation with parking for outings-staff supervise these trips for safety, and outings happen regularly.
The community atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, with amenities like a library, fitness room, regular activities, and staff who take care to respect residents' dignity and independence while also helping them with daily needs like bathing, dressing, and reminders for medication, as needed. For those who don't want to move in but still need help, home care is available with trained aides for companionship and non-medical support.
Oakwood Village emphasizes comfort and security, blending resort-style features with practical services, and the leadership team focuses on safety and well-being above all else, with open communication, experienced staff, and care plans that change based on what residents need at any time. The environment is built for both independent seniors and those needing more support, with attention to detail in both care and atmosphere, and while nothing's perfect, many find it a comfortable place to live where they can stay active, healthy, and supported as they age.
