We provide 3 meals served daily, 24-hour health care staff, and a variety of home health care services and activities. Oak Ridge Assisted Living has nurses on staff. However, because Oak Ridge is NOT a nursing home, we do not have nurses working 24 hours\/day. However, Resident Assistants who are trained by our nurses are staffed 24 hours\/day. Nurses are on site during the week and are on-call during evenings and weekend.<\/p><p><strong>Is the rent based on income?<\/strong><\/p><p>Oak Ridge Assisted Living has all-inclusive packages (memory care only) so the monthly fee includes not just the rent, but also all the meals and 24-hour home health care services. Ala carte services, such as the health care services, can be added on for assisted living. In general, Assisted Living will cost more than Independent Senior Housing because one pays for rent, meals, services, and utilities in one fee. On the other hand, assisted living will cost thousands less per month than nursing homes.<\/p><p><strong>What is the process if someone wants to move into Oak Ridge Assisted Living?<\/strong><\/p><p>Please contact Oak Ridge at 651-438-0418 to schedule a tour and meet with the Housing Coordinator. Move-in criteria and care needs will be discussed. If someone meets the criteria, a nursing assessment will be scheduled with an Oak Ridge nurse. The nurse will determine if Oak Ridge Assisted Living can provide the specific care and services the prospect needs.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4585c74 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4585c74\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7d616a85\" data-id=\"7d616a85\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f2c36f9 elementor-blockquote--skin-quotation elementor-blockquote--align-center elementor-blockquote--button-color-official elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"1f2c36f9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\n\t\t\t\tEveryone has been pleasant to me and I am happy living here!
