About Oaknoll Retirement Residence

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Oaknoll Retirement Residence offers three levels of living—Independent Living for residents who want minimal assistance, Assisted Living for those who need routine help with daily tasks, and a dedicated Memory Care program designed for individuals with cognitive conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Residents can transition between these care types if needs change, allowing couples or friends with different support requirements to remain on the same campus and eliminating the stress of relocating to a new provider.

Beyond the core living options, Oaknoll emphasizes medical continuity. Short-term Respite stays are available, and licensed professionals deliver consistent Diabetes Care and individualized Physical Therapy programs. An emergency call system links residents to staff around the clock, while on-site services include nursing oversight, occupational and speech therapy, stroke and ambulatory care, podiatry, dental visits, incontinence support, hospice coordination, and ongoing resident or family counseling. Because the community offers continuing care, residents have access to increasing levels of support without leaving the property.

Apartments range from studio and efficiency layouts to larger floor plans, each with wall-to-wall carpeting, window treatments, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and basic utilities included. Select units add washers and dryers, while others rely on communal laundry and housekeeping services; not every residence features every upgrade. Outdoor areas, landscaped grounds, and an on-site garden provide places to walk pets or simply enjoy fresh air, and reserved parking is available for those who still drive.

Three daily meals are prepared on site, with attention to balanced nutrition and individual dietary needs. Residents dine in shared spaces that encourage conversation, and staff accommodate modified textures or physician-ordered restrictions when required. Meal service is built into the monthly fee, sparing residents the logistics of grocery shopping and meal preparation.

For recreation, Oaknoll maintains an activity center that hosts structured clubs and community gatherings, yoga sessions, wellness programs, live entertainment, arts and crafts workshops, TV and movie nights, and scheduled social outings into Iowa City and surrounding areas. These offerings provide residents with a variety of options to stay mentally, physically, and socially engaged.

#1 in Iowa City, IA

Residents and their families say:

This community has received numerous positive reviews highlighting its exceptional amenities, welcoming and safe environment, attentive and caring staff, and a variety of enriching activities and learning opportunities. Many reviewers commend the community's ability to provide a high level of geriatric care tailored to individual desires and needs. Residents and their families appreciate the clean, open, and peaceful facilities, which contribute to a top-notch living experience. The food quality is consistently praised for being wonderful, and the community is noted for its efforts to keep residents and visitors safe, especially during challenging times like the Covid-19 pandemic.

However, a few critiques emerge, primarily concerning the high cost of living in the community, which suggests that it may not be affordable for everyone. Additionally, there's mention of a long waiting list to join the community, indicating a potential barrier for potential residents. Despite these points, the overall sentiment remains overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing pride in working at the community, personal stories of excellent care received, and a strong desire to remain or join the community themselves in the future. The sense of community is repeatedly emphasized, alongside the luxury and premium services offered, making it a highly recommended place for those who can afford it and are willing to wait for the opportunity.
