Overview of Gardens of Oakley

Gardens of Oakley offers assisted living, hospice care, memory care, and respite care in Cincinnati, Ohio. Assisted living includes help with bathing, dressing, and medication while the resident keeps a private living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while hospice care centers on comfort and support near the end of life.

Respite care provides a short stay when a resident’s usual caregiver needs time to travel, recover, or manage other responsibilities. The range of care types may suit a resident whose needs change over time or a family seeking short term support. Housing includes one bedroom and two bedroom options, so an individual, a couple, or someone who wants to share a suite with a companion may find an appropriate arrangement.

Gardens of Oakley is a single story building. Pets are allowed, so a resident may bring a pet when moving in. With a Walk Score of 37, the area is car dependent, meaning most errands require a car or a ride, and a resident who no longer drives will generally need transportation for them.
