About The Oaks at Nipomo

from Oasis Senior Advisors

The Oaks at Nipomo offers three levels of care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can transition between services without leaving the community. Short-term respite stays are available for recovery or caregiver relief, and the staff is trained in diabetes monitoring and management. Regular on-site physician visits help residents maintain continuity of care, while speech therapy supports communication and swallowing challenges common to aging adults. The entire property is secured, giving families confidence that residents, especially those in the Memory Care program, are safe at all hours.

Medical coverage extends beyond routine oversight. Licensed nurses handle medication management, incontinence care, and wound supervision. Occupational, physical, and speech therapists work with residents on mobility and daily-living skills, and podiatry and optometry services reduce the need for outside appointments. A dentist visits the campus for preventive and restorative care, and hospice support is available when needed. The Memory Care neighborhood is purpose-built to accommodate cognitive change, featuring layouts and cueing systems designed to minimize confusion. Altogether, the on-site clinical team provides coordinated support aimed at reducing hospital trips and keeping residents in familiar surroundings.

Apartment options range from studio to larger one-bedroom layouts. Many residences feature wheelchair-accessible showers, individual climate control, basic cable, Wi-Fi, and kitchenettes, though specific features vary by unit. Common areas include a central fireplace, outdoor patios, and dedicated parking, giving residents several settings for relaxation and socializing.

Dining is restaurant-style, allowing residents to order at the table and choose from daily specials or an always-available menu. A professional chef and dietitian create meals that accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, and no-sugar preferences. International cuisine days add variety, and families can join loved ones by purchasing guest meals. With all-day dining, residents don’t have to plan their schedules around fixed meal times.

Recreation and wellness activities are held in multiple venues, including an activity center, library and computer lounge, and indoor and outdoor walking paths. The calendar features live music, happy hours, social clubs, yoga and chair-yoga classes, fitness programs, swimming, karaoke nights, birthday celebrations, and community dances. Raised garden beds support hands-on horticultural therapy, and intergenerational programs connect residents with local youth groups. Regular social outings keep residents engaged with the wider Nipomo area.

#1 in Nipomo, CA

Residents and their families say:

This community has received numerous compliments for its beautiful appearance, cleanliness, and modern amenities, resembling a well-maintained and inviting environment. Residents and their families appreciate the variety of activities available, aiming to boost memory, decision-making abilities, and overall engagement through physical and mental stimulation, including off-campus outings and special events like Halloween parties and picnics. The dining experience is frequently praised, with the food being liked by the residents and the dining area described as pleasant and conducive to social interaction. The thoughtful design, targeting both memory care and assisted living needs, is highlighted; memory care areas offer securely designed spaces that encourage social interaction and activity without sacrificing safety.

However, some areas for improvement were noted by multiple reviewers. Concerns were raised about the size of some rooms and the availability of private rooms in the memory care section. A few reviewers expressed dissatisfaction with the meal service's speed and quality, indicating that the dining experience could be lengthy and sometimes disappointing. Issues with communication and responsiveness from the general staff were mentioned, alongside an incident of personal belongings being stolen, suggesting some operational challenges. Despite these concerns, the community's wide range of activities, attentive staff, and the overall environment have made it a recommended choice for many families.
