Oakwood Residence

2109 Red Lion Rd, Philadelphia, Pa 19115, Usa
Overview of Oakwood Residence

Oakwood Residence opened about a year ago on Red Lion Road in Northeast Philadelphia, a very walkable stretch of the city (Walk Score 71) where most errands are reachable on foot and Jefferson Torresdale Hospital sits 2.5 miles away. The single-story building at 2109 Red Lion Rd holds 89 beds and carries care across three levels: nursing home care, assisted living, and respite stays.

Occupancy currently sits at 42%, with 37 of 89 beds filled and an average length of stay of 96 days. That average puts the resident mix squarely in short-stay territory.

Total nursing hours run 3 hours and 56 minutes per resident per day. LPNs account for 59 minutes of that; registered nurses and nurse aides each contribute 33 minutes. It’s an LPN-forward staffing structure for a facility at this stage of operation.

An active resident council meets regularly, and the facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, covering the full range of coverage pathways.

For families in Northeast Philadelphia navigating a post-acute discharge or a short-term respite placement, Oakwood Residence offers a newer single-story setting with full payment flexibility and nursing-level care in a walkable part of the city. The low current occupancy means there is room.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Pennsylvania

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Pennsylvania?

Assisted living in Pennsylvania supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Pennsylvania?

Assisted living in Pennsylvania is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Pennsylvania Medicaid cover assisted living?

Pennsylvania Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Pennsylvania) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Pennsylvania?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Pennsylvania, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Pennsylvania?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
