The Oars Senior Living provides assisted living, independent living, memory care, and continuing care services in a community that feels like a home and not some big institution, so folks can settle in whether they need just a bit of help or more constant care, and they've got this special area called The Oars at Greenback Lane for assisted living. The place has a welcoming feel and is divided into three neighborhoods named Gabion, Langley, and Whidbey, each set up to offer a different kind of support, where Gabion's for those with mild cognitive impairment, Langley helps folks who need more support in middle or late stages, and Whidbey's smaller and more peaceful if you want a quieter space and a steady group of caregivers to keep folks comfortable. The building looks like a modern coastal farmhouse, with big windows for natural light, ADA bathrooms, motion lighting, and both private and shared rooms with things like kitchenettes, Wi-Fi, cable TV, phone, and air conditioning, and everyone gets their own bathroom that's easy to access and safe to use.
Residents have a range of amenities to keep social and busy, with spaces like an arts room, library, dining hall, fitness room, salon and barber, community room, business space, and movie theater, and there's a steady schedule of things like movie nights, arts projects, group games, and fitness classes, plus resident-run clubs, so there's always something to do if you want it, and family, friends, and even pets are encouraged to drop by and visit. Outdoors, there are walking paths and gardens, so folks can sit in the fresh air or take part in nature programs. The team takes care of everyday needs like laundry, dry cleaning, housekeeping, and offers transportation for appointments or outings.
Safety comes first with features like a 24-hour nurse line, emergency call system, sprinkler system, and safety rails all around, so loved ones can feel a little more secure, and the staff helps with things like medicine reminders, bathing, dressing, or any daily tasks that might be getting harder. There are also options for non-ambulatory care for folks who need more help moving around.
Meals are homemade with local ingredients and prepared fresh every day, with menu changes for the seasons, and they'll work with special dietary needs, even following the National Dysphagia Diet if necessary, so everyone gets food that suits them. The place is right near parks, movie theaters, museums, and hospitals, with easy access to I-80 if family wants to visit or you need medical care. The Oars Senior Living tries to keep residents feeling engaged and valued with wellness programs, group activities, and opportunities for folks to keep up on everyday skills, and the programs can change when folks' needs change. You can take a tour in person or online to see how daily life, meals, and activities work there, and the pricing depends on the room, care level, and extra services you want. The staff is focused on supporting a smooth transition to senior living, doing their best to offer care that's both professional and personal, and always aiming to keep dignity and comfort in mind, but never losing sight of simple, practical support when folks need it.
