Oakmont of Camarillo provides both Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to remain on the same campus even as needs change. The community is equipped to serve individuals who wander during the day or night, demonstrate elopement risk, present behavioral challenges, stay up throughout the night, require wound management, use supplemental oxygen, or manage diabetes with oral medication. Staff members are trained to care for residents living with early-stage memory loss through advanced dementia, so families do not have to look for another setting if cognition declines.
Around-the-clock nursing oversight supports the medical program. A licensed nurse is on site or on call at all times, with an awake night shift to monitor residents and respond to pull-cord alerts. The exterior perimeter is fenced and doors are alarmed, and WanderGuard technology allows residents freedom without compromising safety. On-site medical professionals visit routinely for podiatry, audiology, dental services, and rehabilitation in the therapy room. Care aides can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby supervision for walkers to Hoyer lifts and complete bed-bound transfers, so residents with significant physical limitations can stay in place as needs increase.
Apartments may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate, though not every unit has every feature. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided, reducing daily responsibilities for residents who would rather focus on recovery or leisure. The goal is to match the living space to each resident’s functional level and personal preference.
Meals are available through a set menu or prepared to order, and snacks can be picked up throughout the day or delivered during in-room dining. A private dining room is available for family gatherings. The culinary team accommodates physician-ordered diets and resident choices, preparing mechanical-chopped or puréed meals, thickened liquids, and vegetarian plates on request, so residents with swallowing or dietary issues continue to eat safely and enjoyably.
Residents have access to parking, outdoor smoking areas, and fully wheelchair-accessible common spaces. Pets are allowed, but it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Amenities include an on-site barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, library, and a variety of special-interest clubs. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments and group outings, and a community shuttle can be arranged for individual medical trips.
