Oakwood Manor provides assisted living with an emphasis on comprehensive medical oversight. Staff are trained to manage wandering, elopement risk, combative behavior, and residents who stay awake throughout the night. Licensed nurses coordinate wound care, oxygen therapy, and diabetic management for both oral medications and sliding-scale insulin. The community accepts residents with advanced dementia and a range of psychiatric diagnoses, while on-site podiatry helps address foot health without the need for outside appointments.
An awake care team is on duty 24 hours a day, supported by an on-call nurse. All employees undergo background checks, and security measures include a fenced rear area, alarmed doors, wander guard technology, and in-room pull cords that alert staff immediately. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, along with mobility help that spans standby supervision, one-person and two-person transfers, Hoyer lift transfers, and bed-bound care.
Apartments may feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, individual climate controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate the space; not every unit offers every feature, so prospective residents should verify availability. Rooms can be arranged to accommodate walkers or wheelchairs and to reflect each resident’s personal preferences.
Meals follow a set menu prepared by kitchen staff who can modify textures and ingredients to meet physician-ordered diets. Snacks are offered between meals to support stable blood sugar levels and general nutrition.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, internet service, communal gardens, and outdoor smoking areas. The community hosts religious services on site and is located near public transportation for convenient outings and visits.
