Spring Oaks(Closed) - CLOSED was a senior living community at 7251 Grove Rd, Brooksville, FL 34613. The building sat on five acres with everything on one level, which made it easy for people to get around. Spring Oaks offered assisted living and memory care, so folks who needed help with everyday tasks like bathing, dressing, or getting around could get support from staff around the clock, and there was a special secured area for people with Alzheimer's and dementia so they wouldn't wander off and could stay safe. Meals were prepared daily and served in the community dining rooms, usually one to three meals a day, and there were snacks and options for folks with special diets including diabetic, low sodium, or allergy-friendly food, and there was always help with housekeeping, laundry, and linen service to keep things tidy.
The place had semi-private and studio apartments, each with its own bathroom, step-in showers, kitchenettes with small stoves, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and central air, along with simple safety features like emergency call systems and wheelchair-accessible showers to make life a little easier for everyone. Residents could have small pets, and visitors could bring pets now and then. There was a big secured courtyard open at all hours, library, garden room, salon/barbershop, recreation room, computer room, fitness room, movie theater, outdoor walking paths, meeting rooms, and fireplaces in the common areas, all meant to give folks plenty of chances to socialize, stay active, and relax. Activities often included off-site trips, arts and crafts, spiritual gatherings, wellness classes, reminiscence therapy, and educational programs, though sometimes there were periods with fewer planned events.
Spring Oaks had a friendly, comfortable, homey feeling, and the staff was available day and night, including nurses, doctors on call, and therapists who'd visit, so there was always someone to help folks needing more care, whether it was managing medications, dealing with incontinence, or helping with transfers for those who couldn't walk. Management lived on-site, always around if something was needed. Residents could use free transportation for getting to appointments or shopping, and there was parking for visitors and guests. Families could expect help with move-in, coordination with outside health care like podiatrists or therapists, and regular communication about their loved one's care. The place preferred people needing medium care and was licensed by the state under number 10763. The whole design was about keeping things bright and safe, with lots of skylights in the hallways, an open porch at the front for visiting, and an enclosed courtyard where folks could garden or just get some fresh air.
Spring Oaks offered respite care along with independent living, so people needing short-term stays could come and go as needed, and those who wanted more autonomy could enjoy private or semi-private apartments but still join in meals, programs, and get help if they needed it. Guest meals, linen changing, and housekeeping services made things easier all around. Spring Oaks took adults 55 and up, offered care for both ambulatory and non-ambulatory residents, and could assist residents at risk for elopement or those who occasionally acted out physically. With an all-inclusive price structure, people didn't have to worry about hidden fees piling up. While Spring Oaks is now closed, it provided many thoughtful services and features designed for seniors seeking a caring, safe, and friendly place to live.
