Overview of Oak Creek Senior Living

Instagram

Executive Director Winona K. Kegin manages Oak Creek Senior Living, a 41-bed assisted living community located in a residential pocket of central Topeka, Kansas. The facility operates with a 71 percent occupancy rate across a single-story building, which enables residents to walk between their private bedrooms and the shared dining area without using stairs.

The everyday schedule combines housing, home-cooked meals, housekeeping, laundry, and local transportation with a monthly activity series called “What’s Happening.” The 24-hour on-site team includes licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants who manage medication monitoring, while visiting professionals provide podiatry, chaplain, and haircut services.

The neighborhood has a walk score of 25 out of 100, requiring staff and visitors to rely on a vehicle for most off-site errands. Prospective residents evaluating mid-sized care homes can call the main office to check on current room vacancies.
