Residence and Care Contract Options to Meet Your Retirement Living Needs

Franciscan Oaks offers affordable contract options, some with a 90 percent refundable entrance fee. You can choose between a Life Care contract or a Fee for Service contract. Our Life Care contract provides all three levels of the continuum of care for no extra charge. Our Fee for Service contract offers you an option for higher level of care as needed with a lower entrance plan and a lower monthly fee.

In addition to our new lower fee options, we have redesigned and updated our community commons. The new décor features a casual dining Bistro and Deli, elegant gathering areas, and a new look in our formal dining room. For activities, we have enhanced our exercise classes to include balance classes and five additional trainer-directed classes, and we have introduced five new clubs. Our wide selection of activities now include Glee club, Spanish club, bell choir, indoor heart walkers, yoga, and more.

Many residents made the decision to move to the Franciscan Oaks community due to the security and value of our three-level continuum of care. Our continuum of care provides a monthly fee that is all inclusive of utilities, a five-course meal, continental breakfast, weekly housekeeping and linen services, activities, car service to medical appointments, bus services, a full clubhouse of amenities, fitness classes, gym, pool – all for one fee, regardless of which contract type you choose.
