Imagine coming home to surroundings that address your preferences and desires - a residence that assures your independence and financial security while leaving you free to pursue goals and interests - a community whose essence reflects the individual preferences of its residents. Such a community does exist, not in a dream, but in reality - DeKalb Area Retirement Center - Oak Crest. To experience this unique environment is to savor all the wonderful privileges of retirement living.
The foundation of Oak Crest isn't brick and mortar, but a commitment to exploring and expanding the potential of mature adult living. Oak Crest is a community offering life care living options. Individuals choosing Oak Crest may select from independent duplex or apartment homes with a future commitment for additional care and services in the form of sheltered personal care apartments and a licensed intermediate/skilled healthcare facility. It's all here on one campus and built on the belief that meeting and exceeding each resident's expectation takes precedence over all else.
We knew when we were looking for retirement living we wanted to put down roots in a community that would allow us to be together. Having all three levels of living under one roof assures us that when the time comes that one of us needs additional care or services we can still be there for each other.
