Oaktree Residential Living sits in West Eugene off of Barger Drive and has been serving seniors since 2006, always staying locally owned and run by the Babayev family, which gives it that family-operated feel and a consistent standard of care that you don't always get in big places, and the building itself dates back to 1999, so it has that sense of being established and cared for over time, and the setup looks and feels much like a large family home with just 15 private rooms, which helps keep things quieter and gives each resident more individual attention because the staff-to-resident ratio stays low. Residents here get help tailored to their needs, whether it's basic daily things like bathing and dressing or more medical care, and Oaktree provides assisted living, diabetic care, non-ambulatory support, memory care for those facing Alzheimer's or other kinds of dementia, as well as end-of-life services including hospice and palliative care, all with staff on duty around the clock, which matters to folks who might need help both day and night.
The facility does regular evaluations before and after move-in and every few months to make sure the care level matches each person's needs as they change, and families stay involved in the process, since Oaktree encourages family to participate however they want and welcomes visitors often, so it doesn't feel isolating. There's a pull-string call system in each room and stand-to-lift equipment to help staff move anyone safely if needed, plus security cameras to keep common areas monitored-though not in bedrooms or bathrooms, so everyone keeps their privacy. Rooms have ground floor access, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, cable TV available, showers, and accessible features for folks with handicaps, and communal spaces include a big living room for activities, a central dining room for meals, a kitchen that residents and staff use together, and several indoor and outdoor common areas, like the backyard and gardens, giving folks a place to walk or just sit outside.
Meals are homestyle, cooked daily from fresh ingredients, and the kitchen is pretty flexible, serving international dishes, vegan, vegetarian, organic, no-sugar, or low-sodium choices, with restaurant-style dining and even room service if someone doesn't want to eat at the table, and registered dieticians help plan menus. Activities change day by day with individual and group programs run by an activity director most weekdays, from games and crafts to music and outings, and transportation's arranged for off-site trips or doctor visits when needed, plus there's parking for residents and guests and access to local public transit for folks who still like to get out and about.
Medical services range from medication management using computer-based systems to coordinating with doctors and pharmacies directly, and they cover things like incontinence care or setting up diabetic support, so people with more complex health needs still get attention. The whole philosophy at Oaktree revolves around holistic care: supporting physical and emotional health, engaging residents in community living, keeping the building clean and organized, and helping everyone keep as much of their own independence as possible while stepping in quickly if someone needs assistance, which matters when families worry about falling through the cracks in bigger places. All in all, Oaktree feels like a balance between home comfort and professional care, aiming for a safe, comfortable, and welcoming setting for seniors at various stages of health and independence.
