Press release from the issuing company

Friday, October 31st, 2014

Cumming based Oaks Senior Living, LLC and Savannah based Development Associates, Inc. are proud to announce the upcoming development of the newest assisted living and Alzheimer’s care community in Pooler, Georgia.  The 5 acre site will break ground in December 2014, and is expected to be complete late 2015.

The Oaks at Pooler will be located at 125 Southern Junction Blvd., just off of I-95.  Its convenient location will offer convenient service for residents throughout Pooler and West Chatham County as well as many local communities including Bloomingdale, Rincon, Savannah, Garden City, Port Wentworth, and Georgetown.

The two-story community will be home to nearly 100 seniors, and will bring more than 65 jobs to the town of Pooler.  The stylish craftsman style property will feature 61 assisted living apartments and 29 memory care apartments.

In addition to personal care, this state of the art community will offer amenities onsite such as Media Room, Chapel, Physical/Occupational/Speech Therapy, Dental & Podiatry services, Beauty Salon/Barber Shop, Wi-Fi, Concierge, Housekeeping, laundry service and transportation to shopping & banking.  The social, educational, recreational & spiritual programs will provide opportunity for any resident to stay active and engaged in everyday life at The Oaks. 

Oaks Senior Living, CEO Alex Salabarria said “The Pooler community will be one of the finest communities to be added to the Oaks portfolio.  The Oaks strives to operate communities for seniors that are not just fee for service models, but home environments that create lifestyles for the members that live there.”

Development Associates, Inc. (DAI) has been developing real estate in the Southeast since the early 80’s and decided a few years ago to focus on developing high quality Senior Housing because of the industry’s compelling demographics and ability to impact so many families on a personal level. 

DAI and Oaks have formed a joint venture to develop a portfolio of many assisted living-memory care communities throughout the region beginning with The Oaks at Pooler community.  Pooler has experienced dynamic growth over the last 15 years and it is lacking a state-of-the-art senior housing community to serve the needs of its residents.  The Oaks at Pooler will cater to many different types of residents, however a typical resident is someone who is advanced in years and wishes to maintain as much independence as possible while living in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with their peers.  The Oaks will provide an interactive and socially stimulating atmosphere for the residents which will allow for a high level of independence and quality of life.  The Oaks provides a backstop of support and care when it’s required for each resident and tailors that support to individual needs or requests.  This will be the first community of its kind in Pooler which is why we’re so excited to open the doors and begin serving the needs of the community!

This family owned, managed and operated executive team has been faithfully providing senior living in Georgia since 1998.   For more information, call Oaks Senior Living at 770-888-4683.
