Sherwood Oaks Post Acute in Thousand Oaks provides skilled nursing care designed for residents who need ongoing medical oversight. Licensed nurses are on duty around the clock to handle medication administration, wound treatment, IV therapy, and post-surgical recovery. Attending physicians visit the facility regularly to review care plans and adjust treatments, while nurse practitioners and physician assistants help monitor chronic conditions such as diabetes, COPD, and heart disease. The facility also offers on-site laboratory draws and radiology coordination so residents can receive many diagnostic services without leaving the building.
Beyond direct nursing services, Sherwood Oaks Post Acute maintains a full rehabilitation department that furnishes physical, occupational, and speech therapy seven days a week as prescribed. Respiratory therapy is available for residents who require oxygen management or ventilator care, and a registered dietitian oversees therapeutic diets ordered by physicians. Social services staff members coordinate discharge planning, arrange follow-up appointments, and help families navigate insurance requirements. Hospice and respite stays are accepted, and the facility can handle short-term rehabilitation or long-term custodial care depending on a resident’s goals.
Accommodations include both private and shared rooms equipped with adjustable hospital beds, individual closets, and nurse-call systems; some but not all rooms offer in-room showers, personal climate controls, or views of the landscaped courtyard. Housekeeping, laundry service, and maintenance are provided, and Wi-Fi and basic cable are available in most areas. Common spaces include therapy gyms, activity rooms, lounges, and outdoor seating areas that give residents options for social interaction or quiet time, but specific features vary by unit and room type.
Dining services are managed by a culinary team working with the facility’s registered dietitian to prepare three daily meals plus scheduled snacks that meet physician-ordered diets such as low-sodium, renal, diabetic, or pureed textures. Meals are typically served in a central dining room to encourage socialization, though bedside service is offered to residents who are recovering from illness or prefer to eat privately. Hydration stations are stocked throughout the day, and seasonal menus rotate to incorporate fresh ingredients. Families are welcome to arrange guest meals during visits, but not all rooms have space for personal refrigerators or microwaves, so it is best to confirm storage options in advance.
