Overview of Oakwood Village Prairie Ridge

A monthly rate between $694 and $1,154 is the figure most families will want to understand first, and it sets the frame for everything else about Oakwood Village Prairie Ridge. This 206-bed community in Madison, Wisconsin, offers assisted living, memory care, and hospice care, and it does not accept Medicare or Medicaid. Costs are covered by residents through private funding. That is a structural fact about who this community is built for, and it belongs at the front of any honest evaluation.

The location is car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 13, about 10.9 miles from Madison’s city center. UW Health E Terrace Dr Medical Center sits less than a mile away, which matters for a community serving residents with memory care and hospice needs. The facility has been operating for 26 years and holds 206 beds.

What stands out in the amenity structure is how much is bundled into residency. Utilities, including water, sewer, gas, and electricity, are covered. So are scheduled housekeeping, daily check-ins, scheduled transportation, a personal emergency response pendant, social worker access, and spiritual care programming. Heated underground parking, additional storage, snow removal, exterior window washing, and grounds maintenance are all included. Property and liability insurance comes with the package. Religious services are available, and residents are given priority access to advanced care levels if needs escalate over time.

Oakwood Village East Apartment Homes Inc operates the community. For families financing care privately and prioritizing an assisted living setting that includes memory care and hospice under one roof, the amenity structure here is more inclusive than most in its price range.
