Oakwood is a brand new, locally owned and operated community and we’re thrilled to welcome you. Our community has a quiet and comfortable feel and is located right in the heart of Columbus. We offer thoughtful, expert Assisted Living care in studios designed to encourage independence, dignity and social connection. A beautiful building is important, and Oakwood has the modern amenities and comfort you would expect. But it’s what happens inside these walls that makes our community special.
Our Wellness Director not only creates Personal Service Plans for each resident when they join the community, she and her team routinely reassess residents for emergent needs. Everyone makes it their job to understand what makes a resident happy. We believe in the power of good nutrition, fellowship and freshly prepared, home-cooked meals, so we employ an Executive Chef to plan our menus, train our staff and create a delicious restaurant-style dining experience. We ask for our residents’ suggestions and recipes to incorporate comfort foods and personal favorites and we serve breakfast throughout the day.
Above all, we make room for the important things over the routines of the day. Sitting together and listening to a story, holding a hand, learning something new about a resident’s life and remembering we are in the presence of people who have shaped our world. These moments don’t show up in our job descriptions, but they make up the most meaningful parts of our day. We know how important they are.
