“I think most people think of home as a place of comfort, safety, support, and encouragement. It is clearly a definition of why I call Oakwood Creative Care HOME.”
Inspiring JOY for Everyone
At Oakwood Creative Care, we create environments that inspire independence, connection, and purpose. Our engaging programs honor personhood, foster self-esteem, reduce anxiety and depression, and encourage creativity and lifelong learning. Club members (an elite squad of older adults who embrace every moment at our Clubs) experience meaningful activities tailored to their strengths and interests, all in welcoming, open spaces free from unnecessary restrictions.
Caregivers (those who provide daily support, assistance, and care to a loved one or individual) are also invited to experience the Oakwood Effect. Through services at The Hub or our The Clinic, we provide personalized support designed to strengthen caregiving skills, reduce stress, and promote brain health and overall well-being for older adults.
Supporting Families, Enhancing Quality of Life
Oakwood’s impact extends to families, older adults with the desire to age well, and professionals desiring to level up. Older adults can be proactive in their brain health and quality of life through Oakwood’s HUB and Clinic.
By innovating the landscape of aging services, we are reimagining how seniors experience dignity, connection, and joy. Using Oakwood’s Model of Joy, in every aspect of our programs, our approach empowers older adults, families, and professionals to see beyond traditional care models and embrace quality of life, creativity, and community.
Together, we are changing the narrative of how we care for older adults, shaping a future where aging is celebrated and supported with excellence. Join us at Oakwood Creative Care, where we reimagine aging with dignity, creativity, and purpose!
