Colonial Oaks at Pearland offers assisted-living care with the clinical depth to handle residents whose needs go well beyond routine assistance. The team is experienced in managing wandering behaviors—whether during the day or at night—an elopement risk, or episodes of combativeness and other behavioral issues tied to advanced dementia. Staff monitor and support residents who require oxygen, special diets, or diabetic management with either oral medications or insulin injections. Younger adults under 60 who need an assisted-living setting can also be accommodated. Medical oversight is strengthened by regular rounding from primary-care physicians, on-site podiatry, and the community’s willingness to accept residents with psychiatric diagnoses.

Registered nurses or licensed practical nurses are on staff, and a nurse is on call 24 hours a day. Overnight shifts are fully awake, background checks are required for all employees, and the community maintains a fenced rear area as well as pull-cord and personal emergency response systems that alert staff at any hour. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and staff can support mobility needs ranging from simple standby help with a walker to one- or two-person transfers for wheelchair users. An activity director keeps daily programming in motion while security personnel remain on site around the clock.

Resident apartments vary, so not every unit has each feature, but options include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual temperature controls, and cable access. Residents can personalize their space with paint or décor, and weekly housekeeping and scheduled laundry are part of the basic service package.

Meals follow a set menu with the option to order alternatives, and snacks are available throughout the day. A private dining room can be reserved for family visits, and the kitchen can accommodate physician-ordered diet modifications, including mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid preparations.

Additional amenities include resident parking, outside smoking areas, pet-friendly policies, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge desk, and back-up power. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments and personal errands. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
