Aegis Living Aptos offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, with a medical platform designed to address complex and evolving health needs. Residents have access to 12–16-hour on-site nursing coverage, regular physician visits, diabetes management, speech therapy, physical therapy, podiatry, dentistry, massage therapy and hospice oversight. Medication management, incontinence care and ambulatory support are included in the daily service package, and the community can accommodate respite or short-term stays for recovery or caregiver relief. A specialized mental-wellness program supports residents living with mild dementia, while the campus’s Memory Care-only neighborhood provides structured routines and cognitive therapies in a secured setting.
Staffing levels are reinforced by an emergency call system and a secured perimeter to promote safety 24/7. Caregivers assist with full-service bathing and dressing, as well as some physical support for eating and toileting. Transfer assistance ranges from standby supervision to one-person transfers for walkers and wheelchairs, ensuring safe mobility throughout the building. The team is trained to coordinate hospice care when needed, and pet-focused programs help maintain emotional well-being for those who benefit from animal interaction.
Accommodation options include studio and efficiency layouts, some with kitchenettes, bath tubs, ground-floor access or handicap-adapted features. Apartments are air-conditioned, wired for cable and phone, and equipped with Wi-Fi; utilities are included. Residents can choose units overlooking outdoor gardens, walking paths or uncovered parking areas. Library and computer lounges, outdoor common areas and resident parking are available, but not every apartment contains every listed feature, so it is best to confirm specific details during a visit.
Dining operates on an anytime schedule with restaurant-style service, room-service availability and a café-bistro for lighter fare. Daily menus cover international cuisine, vegetarian and gluten-free selections, low-sodium preparations and special dining programs for therapeutic diets. Healthy snacks are stocked throughout the day, and guest meals can be arranged. The culinary team also supports all-day dining for residents who prefer flexible mealtimes.
Daily life is supplemented by indoor walking paths, a fitness program, yoga sessions, raised garden beds and an activity center that hosts bingo, arts and crafts, live music, dances and holiday parties. Residents can join clubs focused on bridge, cards, current events or Bible study and attend educational speakers, cooking classes and reminiscence programs. Scheduled group trips, swimming, movie nights and other social, educational and recreational events are coordinated by the life-enrichment staff to encourage consistent engagement both on-site and off-site.
