Oakwood Village in Springfield, Ohio offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care under one roof. Residents with moderate dementia can remain on campus as their needs change, while those in the Independent or Assisted Living programs receive support that scales to their individual care plans.
The community can accommodate residents who use oxygen, follow physician-directed special diets, or manage diabetes with oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale protocols. A nurse is on site around the clock, backed by an activity director and staff who respond to in-room pull cords and personal emergency response systems. Oakwood Village also accepts adults under 60 and individuals with certain psychiatric conditions. Therapy services are delivered in an on-site therapy room. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, standby supervision for eating, and some physical help with dressing and toileting. Mobility needs are met through standby or one-person transfers, and residents who use walkers or wheelchairs receive routine support.
Apartments may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, basic furnishings, cable service, and regular housekeeping, although not every unit offers every feature. Independent Living residents receive scheduled housekeeping and laundry service, allowing them to focus on recreation rather than household chores.
Three daily meals are served in the main dining room, with recipes adjusted to accommodate low-sodium, diabetic, and other special diets. Staff can step in with eating supervision when it is required, while Independent Living residents may choose to prepare light meals in their kitchenettes or join their neighbors in the dining room for convenience and social interaction.
Amenities include resident parking, community transportation, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, internet access, communal gardens, a library, and on-site religious services. Pets are allowed; it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
