About Shannon Oaks – Oak Bay

Rooted in a genuine commitment to helping older adults live with dignity, comfort, and purpose, Shannon Oaks Oak Bay brings that mission to life at 2000 Goldsmith Street in Victoria, British Columbia. This all-inclusive retirement community offers a warm and engaging environment where residents can enjoy their days on their own terms, supported by a caring team and a full range of amenities.

Living Options & Care Levels

If you are exploring housing options for a parent or loved one, Shannon Oaks Oak Bay offers three levels of care to meet a range of needs. Independent Living is designed for older adults who are largely self-sufficient but want the ease and enjoyment of having meals prepared, housekeeping handled, and a full social calendar available. It removes the burden of home maintenance while preserving the freedom and lifestyle your parent has worked hard to enjoy. Assisted Living is the right step when a little more support is needed day to day, such as help with personal care or medication management, while still allowing residents to live with as much independence as possible. Long-Term Care is available for those who require a higher level of ongoing medical support and supervision. Having all three options under one roof means your loved one can transition between levels of care as their needs evolve, without the upheaval of moving to a new community. That continuity can make an enormous difference for both residents and families.
