Oakland Place is a fine assisted living community in Fairhope, Alabama. It is within gorgeous Baldwin County which is part of the Yellowhammer State.
Since 1994, Oakland Place, Inc. has been providing a quality, loving, family-like environment for our patients. Located in Fairhope, Alabama, we are an Alzheimer’s and specialty care facility that offers a comfortable, country living atmosphere. Our goal is to provide peace of mind to families faced with one of the most difficult decisions they must make: placing a loved one in an assisted care facility.
Oakland Place, Inc. is specifically designed and devoted to accommodating individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and other memory impairments. Around-the-clock care and attention is provided on an individualized basis. We strive to help our residents live each day to its fullest while encouraging independence and providing a safe and secure environment.
Living with Alzheimer’s disease is a frightening experience. Day-to-day tasks become confusing and challenging. Once-familiar surroundings seem foreign, and faces of loved ones become unfamiliar. Routines and living arrangements that promote one’s sense of security, self-worth, and dignity restore the individual’s ability to participate in meaningful activity.
Oakland Place, Inc. is a residence, built on the premise that individuals with memory impairment reach a point when they require around-the-clock attention and assistance beyond what a single caregiver is able to provide in the home.
Caring for a memory-impaired loved one at home is, at best, frightening, painful and exhausting. The overwhelming stress on the caregiver is so often reflected in the behaviors of the memory-impaired individual. Our life’s work is to alleviate both.

Transitioning from home to an assisted living facility can exacerbate anxiety and agitation in the individual with dementia. When the resident is placed in the correct level of care, they require less medication and have fewer safety concerns, while family members are more confident and pleased with a very difficult situation. Our physician-supported, professionally designed programs are tailored to support the impairment level of each individual resident, ensuring dignity and promoting a higher quality of life for residents and their families.
