The Village at Sherman Oaks stands as a senior living community designed for adults aged 55 and over, sitting right in the middle of an urban area with all sorts of neighborhood charm and a touch of city energy, and you'll notice right when you walk in that the lobby and reception area look pretty elegant and welcoming, whether you're a resident or just visiting. People can get in any time since it's got 24-hour access. The place has several living options including independent living for those who don't want to worry about yard work or home maintenance, assisted living, memory care for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, and even skilled nursing for residents who need extra care from nurses or therapists, so you've got a whole range of help if you need it.
There's a business center with computers, printers, and cozy seats, a community lounge, a library for quiet reading, and a fitness center for both independent and memory care residents, with treadmills, bikes, free weights, and even water aerobics classes for staying active. The independent living area features a big fireplace and warm, stylish décor, which makes it feel extra homey, and the nursing and rehab side has wide hallways with soft lighting, white trim, and calming carpet. You'll also spot a heated oversized pool, a putting green, a game room, and even a greenhouse, which adds a nice touch for folks who enjoy gardening or spending time outside, and there's plenty of outdoor spots with patios and balconies plus a big community pool and garden to relax or visit with others.
The apartments come in all different layouts like studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms, some even with dens, all accessible with elevators and widened entrances, and they include walk-in closets, all-electric kitchens, dishwashers, microwaves, and each one has its own heating and cooling you control yourself, and you get internet and all utilities in your rent, too. Residents are welcome to bring pets, and the building's set up for people who need handicap-access features, so moving around is a bit easier wherever you go. Dining gets high marks for good meals served in several nice dining rooms, including a private one for special gatherings, with the memory care dining space made extra comfortable, and there's been awards for the food, the kind and helpful staff, and overall care, and the place has kept a three-year CARF accreditation for quality.
Staff are available 24 hours a day and take care of weekly housekeeping, laundry for flat linens, and any emergency needs with call systems in each apartment, while friendly aides help people who need extra support in daily life. The community's got modern security systems, with controlled access, fire, and smoke detectors, plus sprinklers for safety. Memory care's set up for people who wander and need extra watching, and people can get companion care and non-medical help from trained aides. Residents stay active with wellness programs, exercise classes, social events, and there's a greenhouse and gardens for anyone who enjoys plants. Neighbors get together often, making for a lively group, and many find common areas like the halls, lounge, and game room a comfortable place to meet up. Managed by Senior Resource Group, The Village at Sherman Oaks keeps things focused on comfort, safety, and good company for older adults with a wide variety of needs.
