O'Connor Woods

O'Connor Woods sits on 34 acres in Stockton, California, where folks can find just about every type of senior living service-independent living, assisted living, memory care, rehabilitation, skilled nursing, respite care, and adult day programs like A Day Away-all on a campus that's been growing since 1990 and still has strong roots thanks to the original vision from Father O'Connor and the staff from St. Joseph's. The community supports older adults at every step, whether someone's looking for a worry-free life in well-kept apartments and cottages with full kitchens and their own washers and dryers, or they need more day-to-day help, like bathing, dressing, and medication through assisted living, or they need full-time expert memory care for Alzheimer's or dementia, with secure, safe grounds and careful activities to help folks feel comfortable and reduce confusion, or they're going through some rehabilitation after a hospital stay, or just need a bit of help now and then for a short stay, or even some company or light care at home-O'Connor Woods has care staff, clinicians, aides, and nurses for every kind of need, all the way up to licensed skilled nursing with round-the-clock supervision. The grounds are secure and welcoming, with enclosed outdoor spaces, indoor lounges, a big main clubhouse with handy parking, and a fitness club with a pool for residents who want to stay active, plus there's a multi-use chapel for spiritual needs, Wi-Fi in the community for those who want it, transportation for appointments or outings, and a calendar that's always full with clubs, lectures, classes, special celebrations, and even a Day Away Program for folks who need some time out. There are nutritious meals made for residents every day, served in dining areas designed to feel friendly and homey, and neighbors tend to get to know each other well over shared meals and activities. People who live here get a continuum of care, meaning they don't have to move if their health or needs change, and since it's a nonprofit managed by Eskaton, the community is overseen by a dedicated volunteer board focused on stability and good care. O'Connor Woods offers programs for spiritual, social, and physical well-being and stays connected with the wider medical community, working together with St. Joseph's Medical Center, Touro University Medical Group, and Hospice of San Joaquin, plus they've earned awards from organizations like the American Health Care Association and the Best of Senior Living. The campus is easy to reach, with simple directions off Highway 99 and Interstate 5, and it's the only community in San Joaquin County accredited by the Continuing Care Accreditation Commission. There's a strong sense of safety and support for families and residents, along with outreach, counseling, affordable housing, and ongoing learning for older adults. O'Connor Woods remains a steady choice for those looking for a place where care, comfort, and community come together for folks at different stages in life.
