About Us
Redefining the Culture of Care
The Oars began with a new vision for senior living. A community focused on promoting dignity and self-worth through stimulating group activities, wellness programs, and engagement in everyday life skills.
Inspired by our combined years of experience, we set out to create a place for the young at heart. After much learning, planning, and development, we’re proud to welcome you to The Oars!
We’ll work with your family to provide support and peace of mind as your loved one transitions to senior care. And as their needs change, our compassionate staff and adaptable programming ensures that your loved one receives support and care with the comforts of home.

The Oars Life
Inspired Living, Designed with Purpose
The Oars is designed to be an engaging environment for residents, family and friends.
With on-site amenities, residents can make an appointment at the beauty shop, or barber, take a morning exercise class, or just enjoy the simple beauty of our community, charmingly styled to recall a coastal farmhouse. Our neighborhoods are planned to engage our residents’ intellect and emotions, whether that means recalling times past, or building a new sense of independence as seniors.
Our Neighborhood is Your Home
Providing peace of mind is about more than just a place to live for you or your loved one.
We’re a community that values living with integrity and engaging with our hearts. When family visits, take a stroll through our gardens, or stay and enjoy a homemade meal. Family, friends, and pets are not just welcomed but embraced here.
Programming that Cares
Our programming addresses residents’ needs in a proactive, preventive manner.
Daily tasks that we take for granted become more difficult for seniors to manage, so we keep our residents active and motivated, incorporating wellness programs into our recreational activities. This keeps residents emotionally engaged and maximizes their wellness.
Our Food. Local & Always Fresh.
As chefs, we work to prepare new menus daily.
The food at The Oars is sourced locally, prepared fresh and, sometimes designed by our residents! Our offerings change with the seasons and feature both on-trend menus and homestyle favorites. Our dining and nursing teams work in tandem to provide appropriate options for each resident. We also accommodate modified diet options in keeping with the National Dysphagia Diet standards.
The Oars
Placing a loved one in Senior Living can feel as if you are adrift without a paddle. Let us be your lifeline. We’d be honored to partner with you.
