The Oxford Grand Assisted Living & Memory Care, found on North Parkdale Circle in Wichita, KS, has a two-story building with a mix of cozy studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, and the place really puts a focus on safety, privacy, and comfort for all its residents. This senior living community offers personalized assisted living and memory care services, meaning some folks get help with daily tasks like bathing and dressing, while others find specialized care if they're living with memory conditions such as Alzheimer's. Each apartment aims for privacy and ease, and the staff, managed by Executive Director Nathan Harrison who's spent over a decade working in senior care, are known for being friendly, helpful, and treating everyone with respect.
Residents have meals that taste good and meet specific dietary needs, with dining served in the Grand Dining Room by an executive chef, or at places like Penny Lane Café for fresh-baked treats and coffee, while those in Memory Care sometimes enjoy family-style meals to help them feel comfortable and included. The fitness room comes equipped for exercise and on-site physical therapy, while there are daily activities like happy hours, games, Wii bowling, and music performances, all organized through the LEGACY Program. The building has inviting spaces like two secure enclosed courtyards, walking paths with benches, a rooftop deck for relaxing or looking at the stars, Romeo's Pub for social gatherings, and a traditional kitchen for cooking demonstrations.
Residents can use the scheduled transportation to get to appointments or outings, and the staff are always around, all hours of the day, to help with medication, personal care, or laundry and housework, so everyone gets what they need when they need it. Amenities like basic cable, Wi-Fi, an emergency call system, and maintenance-free living add to peace of mind. Those in memory care, especially, have extra secure spaces and programming built to help keep them safe from wandering and reduce confusion. The community has won awards for quality care, and there's a real focus on the human side of living, with staff and residents sharing stories and forming real connections, all while enjoying their independence in a lively, supportive place.
