The Glen at Scripps Ranch is a licensed Life Plan Community, which people also call a Continuing Care Retirement Community, sitting on a large 53-acre campus near downtown San Diego. The community runs between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM and stays open until 6:00 PM during weekdays. Residents can choose from independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing care, so folks often find the right level of support all in one place. The apartments come in different sizes, from one-bedroom up to three-bedroom homes, and each place is maintenance-free, leaving residents more time to join in activities, clubs, and classes that fill the on-site calendar.
The community has several dining venues with chef-created meals and provides meals made to order to handle different dietary needs, and there's an on-campus dining program with a wide range of options. Several resort-like amenities show up around every corner, including an indoor pool with a roof that moves back, an auditorium that hosts dances, performances, and parties, plus fitness classes, health lectures, and a full calendar of social events keeping folks busy if they wish. The whole place is built on a single story, with many homes sitting only steps away from community spaces, so it's easy to get out and about on campus.
Seniors get help with daily tasks if needed and have access to physical, occupational, and speech therapies right there. There's a vaccine clinic on-site, and the health center offers skilled care and memory care for adults who need more support as they grow older, including those with Alzheimer's or other dementia. The Glen also offers telehealth services, making it a bit easier to get medical advice. There's always help nearby, and with priority access to their health center, everyone has a plan for future needs. Many residents like the elegant details of the spaces, but folks should know the main focus stays on comfort and health.
Access to nearby hospitals such as Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla and Sharp Memorial Hospital gives families a bit more assurance. Residents often enjoy a full, hassle-free retirement, with chores and home maintenance managed for them, and days filled with a variety of social programs, group outings, and plenty of opportunities to meet new friends.
