Grand Oaks
Grand Oaks provides assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Okeechobee, FL. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident maintains a private living space. Memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, while respite care provides a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
Grand Oaks has 37 beds, making it a smaller community where staff and residents can get to know each other. The community may be a good fit for someone who prefers a smaller setting and needs assisted living, memory care, or a short-term respite stay.
Room options include semi-private rooms, one-bedroom units, two-bedroom units, studios, and alcove suites. A two-bedroom unit or semi-private room can suit someone moving with a companion, while a studio provides a single private space. Chef-prepared meals are provided, and a Southern-style porch with rocking chairs gives residents an outdoor place to sit.
The area has a somewhat walkable Walk Score of 66, meaning some errands can be done on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to complete some nearby errands independently. Medicaid is accepted, which gives families a payment option when personal savings may not cover a long stay. Sabrina Cook serves as the administrator.
