Ocean Hills Independent Living sits in the peaceful coastal area of Oceanside, California, surrounded by beaches and close to shops, churches, and recreation centers, so seniors can enjoy outings and fresh air when they like, and the community's got all types of senior living covered with options for independent living, assisted living, and memory care, plus a nursing home for those who need a higher level of care, so folks can move between care types as their needs change over time. Residents find plenty of comfortable apartments with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans, all featuring accessible showers and entryways, with utilities, cable, and Wi-Fi included, and for folks with pets, they'll find a pet-friendly atmosphere and a dog run while wheelchair access is spread throughout the building. People gather inside the grand foyer or settle by the fireplace lounge, and some prefer the movie theater, bistro, sports bar, library, or the computer room to pass the time, but if you like activities, there's a game room, art studio, pickleball court, ice cream parlor, fitness and wellness center, pool and spa, and even a putting green, while outside you can stroll walking paths or sit by water features in the gardens and courtyards for some quiet.
Staff offer 24-hour help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, housekeeping, linen service, and medication reminders or management, with a focus on knowing each resident by name and helping everyone stay safe, especially in memory care, where they work hard to reduce confusion and keep folks from wandering. The dining options give residents chef-prepared meals in dining rooms or alfresco settings, and sometimes a resident chef gives monthly food demos for a little fun, with snacks and meals adapted to different diets. Residents have their days filled with scheduled activities like music programs, movie nights, cultural events, games, and outings, with social and wellness programs supported by things like Coro Health music and smart technology to match activities to each resident's own needs or preferences, and for those with mild cognitive problems there are specialized memory care and engagement programs on hand. The whole place is set up to keep residents healthy and happy, whether that's through fitness rooms, help with getting around, pet-friendly policies, or giving easy access to local doctors, dentists, groceries, or restaurants, and transportation is ready for group trips or appointments. There's always someone to help in case of emergencies, with a 24-hour call system in place.
