Oakwood Meadows Assisted Living, formerly called Sun Oak Senior Living, sits in a craftsman-style building surrounded by clean landscaping and quiet gardens, and you'll see it's been around a while, but they keep working to improve things for the residents. The facility offers several types of care for seniors, including independent living for those who want a maintenance-free lifestyle, assisted living for people who need help with things like bathing or taking medicine, and a separate memory care building for residents with Alzheimer's or dementia, where the staff uses wander alert bracelets and a secure layout to prevent folks from getting lost. You'll find skilled nursing too, so seniors with more complex needs can get 24-hour care, including wound care and therapies.
There's always staff on site, day and night, ready to help with daily activities like grooming, toileting, and dressing, and people who need reminders or extra supervision get help so they can feel safe and supported. Staff are known for being helpful and friendly, which shows up in awards for being an "All Star" community and winning "Most Friendly" and "Best of Senior Living" honors, plus folks have rated the place with a solid 4.0 review score. The memory care program takes special care with residents who wander or show behaviors that need close management, and there's support for people dealing with major behavioral issues or medical needs, including giving insulin shots and checking blood sugar for diabetes. Security is a strong point, with computerized systems to prevent anyone from leaving unsafe areas by mistake.
Apartments come with private bathrooms, climate control, closet space, cable, and wifi, plus there's a 24-hour emergency system. People appreciate the mix of indoor and outdoor common areas-residents can garden, join arts and crafts, exercise, and even attend book clubs or outings into the larger community, and a full-time activity director plans these events. Meals are family-style or restaurant-style, with "Anytime Dining," and the kitchen staff prepares food with quality ingredients, offering choices for special needs like gluten-free or low-sugar diets, which the community has won a "Best Meals and Dining" award for.
Oakwood Meadows Assisted Living welcomes pets, offers pet therapy, and has beauty salon services, wheelchair-accessible showers, and transportation options for shopping or doctor visits. Residents get devotional services both on and off site for their spiritual needs, and there are programs like intergenerational activities, karaoke, Wii bowling, and brain fitness classes to keep folks engaged. There's hospice, respite stays, and aging-in-place programs, so people can remain even if their care needs grow over time, and private parking is available for residents and visitors.
The facility aims to help people live as independently as possible with the right support, always trying to create an environment where seniors feel respected, safe, and part of a community-nothing fancy, but steady and reliable with care focused on daily support, comfort, and dignity.
