About Oakwood Residence

Oakwood Residence is an assisted living community located in Philadelphia, offering support for older adults who need help with daily activities but want to maintain as much independence as possible. Residents live in spacious suites and have access to care around the clock, with staff available at all hours to assist as needs arise. The community operates on an all-inclusive monthly rate, which can simplify budgeting for families comparing costs across different options. Oakwood describes itself as having a warm, family-style atmosphere, suggesting an emphasis on close relationships between residents and staff rather than a more institutional feel. This setting may suit families seeking a smaller, more personal environment for a parent or partner who requires consistent assistance with daily living but does not need the specialized medical oversight of skilled nursing or the structured support of memory care. Families considering Oakwood may want to reach out directly to learn more about specific daily routines, dining arrangements, and opportunities for visiting, as these details can vary and are best confirmed with the community itself.

I had a incident that required me to go for short term rehab but after I was done, I realized I could not return back home independent. The rehab social worker mentioned personal care which I was nervous and reluctant about but really had no other option. I chose Oakwood Residence and since arriving a few months ago I am now very happy I did choose to come. The staff is very understanding and offers emotional support when I need it, I have made many new friends here and attend lots of cool activities. My favorite activity is bowling. Every week they have a different entertainer who is always fun. I do recommend anyone looking to come.

My grandmother spent 5 months at Oakwood and I truly loved it there for her. It's such a hidden gem. The facility is very clean and kept up with. You will often see maintenance consistently working on projects or updating things. Her room was often cleaned and taken care of. The staff is very friendly and kind. They were always welcoming and learned our names. They paid close attention to my grandmother and learned my her behaviors. They were also very patient with her. Constance, the head nurse, was great to work with. The nurses and assistants were on top of everything. Nochum, the director, was helpful and listened to me when I needed assistance. The facility offers a variety of activities throughout the day for residents to participate in. Unfortunately, my grandmother never had the drive to be a part of them. The live music was excellent! They do movies, games, exercise, and even trips. Joanne in the hair salon is wonderful! Super friendly and a great person. The only reason we left was because it was not a great fit for my grandmother. She needs more care than what she was getting. Highly recommend for those who need some assistance with daily living but also have the will and drive to live, function, and socialize with others!

My mom has actually thrived at Oakwood. She had a group of ladies from day 1 take her under their wing, she participates in the daily activities, she enjoys herself. Oakwood is taking good care of her. Liz and her staff are amazing with their care. I am just very happy with how my mom is treated there.

I received a call from their admissions girl following up on a referral she got from senior service. Once I explained my mother's situation she identified she needs a nursing home and not personal care . I told her I agreed and that is why I called the service to help me but kept only getting calls from assisted livings. What was different about Heather than the other places who called is that she didn't just hang up , she asked me some questions to figure out how to proceed with finding a nursing home since the one they have connected at her building to too far away. She learned there are monies so gave me the names and education on seeking help from an elder care attorney so they can help me with the spend down and then with a Medicaid grant when her funds are gone . She gave me tons of education, emotional support and then her phone number saying if she came across any questions to call her and she will try to answer for me . She knew so much and simply made me feel happy with her compassion so wanted to share with others .

I highly recommend Liz and her staff. I work for a company that comes across many people who need to transition into senior / assisted living. On several occasions , Liz has come to the property and assisted with the move. I have witnessed her compassionate approach and detailed explanation to family members on this life changing move. There have been several difficult situations and Liz has always been there every step of the way. When this difficult situation arises , consider Oakwood as a choice for your loved one. Liz Good is your first contact.
