Courage, compassion, and selflessness are just a few of the words that would describe our community, regional, and executive teams as they swiftly responded to Hurricane Helene.

This weekend, amidst the unprecedented impact of Hurricane Helene on many of our communities, our local Oaks teams showcased exceptional courage and care as they came together to ensure the safety of their residents. Due to extreme weather conditions, residents from Oaks at Evans had to be transported to sister communities, Camellia Place of Woodstock and Oaks at Aiken, in order for continuous care to be provided in a secure environment. We could not be more proud and grateful of not just our community team members, but our entire Oaks family from residents and family members to friends and volunteers for joining together to transport residents and provide necessary supplies.

Over the course of this week, Oaks Senior Living communities have been taking each day to intentionally honor their Assisted Living staff and residents for Assisted Living Week. From spirit days like decade day to friends and family ice cream socials, community team members have celebrated their residents, families, and one another with joy and gratitude. It is a pleasure to have the opportunity to care and serve our assisted living population. Thank you to each team for the lengths you have gone this week, and the lengths you go every week, to love your residents.

On this day, Oaks Senior Living remembers the lives lost, the heroes who emerged, and the resilience of a nation united in the face of tragedy. As we commemorate 9/11, we honor the bravery, compassion, and strength of those that sacrificed everything. We will never forget.

Yesterday, Oaks Senior Living communities took the opportunity to celebrate their grandparents on Grandparents Day by gathering the multiple generations that make up our Oaks family.

We hope you had a wonderful time commemorating the grandparents in your lives by honoring the many ways they have blessed us.

Today, we are glad to honor the dedication and hard work of our incredible Oaks Senior Living team members. Your commitment to caring for our residents makes a world of difference every day. Happy Labor Day from all of us at Oaks Senior Living!
