The Gables of Ojai offers three levels of residential care—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and a dedicated Memory Care program—allowing residents to move seamlessly to the support level that fits their changing needs. Licensed nurses coordinate care plans, and licensed therapists provide on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy. For individuals living with dementia, the Memory Care neighborhood is designed to minimize confusion and maximize safety, while still promoting engagement in daily routines.
Additional medical services are extensive. Diabetes monitoring and management, medication administration, and incontinence support are available around the clock. Short-term respite stays give family caregivers a break, and hospice care can be coordinated for residents who need it. An emergency call system and a secured community layout help staff respond quickly to urgent situations. Podiatry, ambulatory care, massage therapy, and pet-focused wellness programs are scheduled on site, so most routine health needs can be met without leaving the property.
Residences range from studio suites to larger units that can include kitchenettes, decks, balconies, fireplaces, or patios. Wheelchair-accessible showers, wall-to-wall carpeting, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and individual climate control are standard in many apartments, and utilities are bundled into the monthly fee. Not all accommodations have every listed feature, so prospective residents should review available floor plans during a visit. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and convenient parking simplify daily living, while landscaped grounds, outdoor walking paths, and a butterfly garden provide places to spend time outdoors with visiting family members—or a resident cat.
Dining is structured yet flexible. Three chef-prepared meals are served daily, and an all-day dining menu covers off-meal cravings. The culinary team can accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, no-added-sugar, and other physician-ordered diets. Healthy snacks are stocked throughout the day, and guests may join residents for meals. A private dining room can be reserved for birthdays or holiday celebrations, making it easier to share special occasions with family.
Recreational and enrichment options include an activity center, arts and crafts studio, library and computer lounge, and both indoor and outdoor walking paths. Residents can take part in fitness classes at the on-site fitness center, swim in the pool, or join clubs that range from hobby groups to volunteer service programs. Scheduled day trips, educational lectures, live music or theater performances, game nights, and community holiday parties round out the social calendar, ensuring residents have multiple ways to stay active and connected.
