Brookdale Oak Park offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, giving residents the option to receive the level of day-to-day support that fits their situation. The health team can manage wound care, administer oxygen therapy, and support residents who manage diabetes with oral medications, injections, or a sliding-scale insulin regimen. While the community is equipped for a broad range of medical needs, it does not provide specialized dementia services.

Residents have access to a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse on staff and a nurse on call around the clock. Background-checked caregivers remain awake on night shifts, and a pull-cord system immediately alerts staff if help is needed. Additional safeguards include 24-hour on-site security, a fenced rear area, and Wander Guard technology for those who may require it. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Staff can give full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and can accommodate mobility ranging from simple walker supervision to one- or two-person transfers.

Apartments are available in multiple layouts; some have private bathrooms, individual climate controls, and cable access, though not every unit includes every feature.

Meals are prepared by a professional chef and served on an all-day dining schedule, with guest meals, outdoor BBQs, and picnics offered when weather allows. Residents in Independent Living can opt into medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, laundry service, and a monthly meal plan.

The campus includes resident parking, designated outdoor smoking areas, and is fully wheelchair accessible. Everyday conveniences range from an on-site barber and beauty shop to an exercise room, movie room, piano lounge, and wellness center. High-speed internet and on-site religious services are available, and scheduled transportation as well as proximity to public transit make local outings straightforward.
