Overview of Oaks at Maple Ridge

Oaks at Maple Ridge offers assisted living and respite care in Columbus, GA. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks while allowing a resident to live in a private residence, and respite care provides a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The community may be a good fit for a family seeking short-term care during a caregiver’s absence.

The community has 50 beds and offers studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom residences. A studio provides a single private space, while a two-bedroom residence can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion. Pets are allowed, and Stephanie Oswald serves as administrator.

Restaurant-style dining includes local comfort foods, healthy options, and special diets, giving residents meal choices suited to those needs. Residents can exercise in the fitness center, read in the library, use the salon, walk along landscaped paths and gardens, and participate in activities such as trivia, Bingo, and live entertainment. Transportation and rehabilitation services are available, and wheelchair accessibility supports residents who use mobility devices.

A Walk Score of 32 places the area in a car-dependent setting, meaning most errands require a car or a ride; a resident who no longer drives would generally need transportation for those trips.
