Oaks at Grove Park is a continuing care retirement community that sits in a quiet, residential, and cultural neighborhood, where elders can live as independently as they're able while getting care. The place has 58 assisted living apartments and 32 memory care apartments, each with straight hallways for easy walking and fully secured neighborhoods that help residents move around safely and freely. Cats, dogs, and other small pets are welcome. The community uses a person-directed approach, tailoring care to individual wishes and needs, with seven different care levels offered. Oaks at Grove Park is Eden Alternative certified, focusing on resident choices and meaningful daily life.
The staff, called care partners, help with tasks like bathing, dressing, feeding, medication, and mobility, including two-person transfers. Memory care services use gentle redirection and cueing, with comfortable rooms and simple layouts. Safety is a main focus, shown by emergency call systems, monitored doors, controlled building access, grab bars, wellness checks, fall prevention, and bright common areas. Health monitoring includes regular checks of blood pressure, weight, and nutrition, with quarterly family updates. Residents have 24-hour support from trained team members, and all units have emergency pull cords for peace of mind. The facility follows Georgia state regulations and holds state licenses, and has won the Ledger-Inquirer Reader's Choice Best of 2020 Assisted Living Award.
The community encourages social interaction, mindful activities, and daily comfort through arts and crafts, movie nights, music, spiritual services in a quiet chapel, cultural and educational programs, intergenerational visits with children, outings, games, and holiday events. There are raised garden beds, walking spaces, a patio with flowers and an American flag, a billiards room, a salon, an activity room, a cinema with plush recliners, and common areas with soft lighting and high ceilings. Pets, bird aviaries, and aquariums add to the community spirit. Residents and visitors can enjoy communal dining, room service, snacks, guest meals, and private dining with a chef on staff, with all-day dining that allows flexible meal schedules in both the main and memory care dining rooms featuring a fireplace.
There's no stove in apartments, but each has cable and Wi-Fi, closet space, outdoor access, a private shower, living rooms, and space for personal items. All apartments include utilities except cable and phone. Housekeeping, laundry, scheduled transportation, and shopping services-including medical trips-make life easier. The campus features a children's playground, secured outdoor areas, water features, sports lawns, therapy rooms, a computer room, group outing transportation, free Wi-Fi, and parking for residents and guests.
Clinical services cover medication reminders and administration, dental and podiatry visits, occupational, physical, and speech therapies, and support groups. Fitness and wellness programs include chair exercise, balance activities, and health lessons, with wheelchair-accessible transport and apartment units. Oaks at Grove Park is family-operated, established by the Salabarria family, and recognized as a trusted and friendly provider since 2020 in the Georgia Senior Living Association. The community welcomes short-term stays through respite care and offers home health care, senior services, nursing, rehabilitation, and adult day care, with a focus on supporting both residents and families in practical ways.
