Oaks at Salem Road is an assisted-living community that concentrates on delivering hands-on medical and personal support for residents who need daily oversight. The staff is equipped to manage special diets, diabetes—both oral medication and insulin regimes—and to care for adults under 60 who qualify for assisted living. Moderate dementia conditions are supported through structured observation and memory-oriented routines. An RN or LPN is on site, with a nurse on call 24 hours a day. Medication management, hospice coordination, and incontinence assistance are available, and occupational, physical, and podiatry services are provided on-site to reduce outside appointments.
Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to one- or two-person assistance, and staff are trained to work with walkers and wheelchairs. Background-checked caregivers remain awake overnight, and the building uses pull-cord and PERS systems to summon staff quickly. Security is in place around the clock, and an activity director organizes daily programming that aligns with each individual’s care plan. Laundry, dry-cleaning, memory care activities, and ambulatory care are also offered on campus.
Accommodations include private suites with bathrooms, optional kitchenettes, and independent temperature controls. Some apartments allow residents to paint or decorate, and cable service is available. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, but features vary by unit, so families should confirm which options come with each room.
Dining services give residents the choice of set menus or made-to-order selections, with snacks available throughout the day. The kitchen can prepare mechanical-chopped meals and closely follows physician-ordered diets, including diabetic and other specialized plans.
On the amenity side, Oaks at Salem Road offers resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge assistance, a library, and scheduled transportation for appointments and outings.
