Overview of The Reserve at Oswego

The Reserve at Oswego offers memory care and respite care in Oswego, IL. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for a resident who may be at risk of wandering, while respite care provides a short stay for someone whose usual caregiver needs time to travel or recover.

With 40 beds, the community may be a good fit for someone who prefers a smaller setting. Housing options include studios and two-bed layouts. A studio provides one private living space, while a two-bed layout can suit a couple or someone who wants a companion.

The area has a Walk Score of 61, meaning it is somewhat walkable and some errands can be done on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to manage some outings independently. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet when moving in. The three-story community is operated by Oswego Memory Care.
