Allegria at The Oaks sits on a hilltop overlooking the trees by Neshaminy Creek, and it's a community where residents aged 55 and up can live with both comfort and support. The building's modern design holds private rooms with baths, wheelchair accessible showers, and full tubs, and they let you bring cats or dogs so the place feels more like home. You'll find indoor and outdoor activity areas where folks gather for art classes, stretching, gardening, trivia, room for outings, Wii bowling, and even monthly wine tasting, which shows how they keep things lively for all levels of ability. They've got communal and private dining, offer meals three times a day plus snacks, and pay attention to special diets like low sodium or low sugar for those who need it, and guests can join any time for a meal. The activity directors keep both assisted living and memory care residents busy with music, crafts, fitness, and social time each day, and there's a relaxed, family-like feeling throughout, with a staff that stays awake and on duty 24 hours a day.
There's a program for aging in place, so you don't have to move if you need more help later-care levels range from light assistance to full support, and the nurses and medication care managers run a medication management program for safety and peace of mind. If you live with diabetes, incontinence, or need help walking or managing behaviors that can get tough, they've got trained staff ready, and there's even a doctor on call. Folks who wander or may try to exit when they shouldn't are watched over by a bracelet system and computer alerts, and the secured memory care wing provides extra protection for those with Alzheimer's or advanced dementia, including structured activities for engagement, sensory events, and regular music. The place accepts older adults with major behavioral needs, including those with exit-seeking or difficult actions, which isn't something every community can do.
You can expect help with personal care, regular visits from specialists like podiatrists, dentists, physical therapists, and a lot of coordination with your personal doctor if needed. Housekeeping comes weekly, utilities including cable TV are covered (except for phone and internet), and there's scheduled transportation for things like shopping, medical appointments, and banks, plus a parking area for those still driving. Allegria at The Oaks makes thoughtful efforts to let every person-whether independent, needing some help, or living with memory loss-join group events, eat together, go on outings, tend to flowers in the enclosed outdoor garden, and keep their sense of purpose and connection. Short-term and trial stays are also available if someone wants to see how it fits before settling in. Members of the Allegria senior living group want to make sure everyone's dignity and individuality are respected, and families find that visitors are always welcome. This is a place that tries to keep things as easy and comfortable as possible while meeting changing needs as people grow older.
