Orion Oaks Assisted Living & Memory Care

Orion Oaks Assisted Living & Memory Care at 3451 Clarkston Rd in Lake Orion mainly serves seniors who need help with daily activities or who face memory problems such as Alzheimer's and dementia, and while it's closed as of now with a scheduled closed date of March 12, 2025, its license runs from August 1, 2024, to July 31, 2025, with a capacity for 70 residents under license number AH630386897, and it's classified as a "Homes for the Aged" facility by the state. This place has a long history with over 100 years combined experience in caring for older adults and has a staff that's trained in both assisted living and memory care, so residents get help with bathing, dressing, medication, and even incontinence needs if needed, and when someone needs dementia care, the team knows what to do because they're set up for high acuity care in a medical-focused building made for those with cognitive and physical challenges. The community design keeps things secure for memory care residents, with round-the-clock supervision and a 24-hour call system, which gives peace of mind for families and the residents themselves since support is always near, and while the staff tries to help people keep their independence, they stay ready to provide hands-on help when needed, plus there are programs to try to keep everyone as healthy and active as possible. Inside, there are activity and arts rooms, a game room, a library, and social things like music programs, movies, and community events, and the place also has a fitness room, spa, and sauna, plus wellness programs, so residents can try to keep their bodies and minds engaged, and when they want time outside, there are walking paths and common spaces for sitting and enjoying the air with friends or alone. Nutritious meals get planned and prepared right there, and the building meets accessibility standards for those with disabilities, in addition to having space for pets and extra support for folks facing non-ambulatory needs. The mission here says, "Putting People First!" and the team works with compassion, aiming to help every senior feel respected, heard, and loved, with schedules and programs that recognize what makes each person unique and special, and the community's operated by The Laurels Of Lake Orion LLC, focused on supporting people during what can be a hard transition into assisted living or memory care. Orion Oaks also connects seniors and families with information about other local senior living options in the Lake Orion area, and tries to give honest support, guided by that central idea of compassion and understanding that's part of its approach to senior care.
