Red Oak Manor is a small care community with room for up to 6 residents, and it's been in operation since December 8, 2006. The facility sits about 14.4 miles outside Cave Spring, Virginia, and offers private or shared housing in a home-like setting. Seniors can pick from studio layouts, one-bedroom, semi-private, or two-bedroom rooms, and the rooms come furnished with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, air conditioning, cable TV, Wifi, and telephone service. There are outdoor spaces, a garden area, a book room, and common areas set up for socializing or quiet reading, plus a dining room, computer center, small library, and community rooms. Red Oak Manor arranges transportation for doctor's appointments, errands, faith-based activities, and community outings, as well as day trips and neighborhood features that let residents stay connected. The dining program uses chefs and meal planners to provide three homemade meals a day, including modified meals for special diets such as diabetes or hypertension, and there's also the option for restaurant-style dining or help with meal preparation.
The community focuses on independence and keeping folks active, with scheduled daily activities, exercise schedules, fitness programs, and a wellness room with a sauna and spa. There are craft programs, board games, movie nights, social evenings, music therapy, pet therapy, regular events, and a range of on-site and off-site activities. The care team helps with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, transfers, medication management, diabetic care-including insulin dosing-and incontinence care. Staff can assist non-ambulatory residents with moving and provide two-person transfers as needed. Red Oak Manor provides around-the-clock supervision, 12-16 hours of nursing support, a 24-hour call system for emergencies, and supports both assisted living and memory care needs, including services for Alzheimer's disease and dementia. There's also respite care for short-term stays when caregivers need a break.
Other amenities include beauty salon and barber services on site or by mobile stylists, scheduled entertainment, devotional programs, fitness centers, spa and wellness rooms, and neighborhood common rooms. Residents can enjoy fully furnished rooms, housekeeping, personal care, and help with hygiene. Healthcare staff and ancillary services are available, with tailored care plans for each resident. Red Oak Manor has a dedicated management team, led by Ms. Patty Toler, Administrator, and maintains a state license, along with an A+ BBB rating, though it's not BBB accredited and rates a 5.6 out of 10 in community surveys. Service and payment options include private pay, social security, veteran's benefits, commercial insurance, and different fee categories depending on the level of care, with an extra fee for a second occupant. The facility follows a separate pricing structure for care needs and includes a buy-in fee and a community fee for assisted living. Red Oak Manor provides a safe, friendly environment where the staff are recognized for being helpful, joyful, and kind, working to support residents' well-being and independence every day.
