Oakmont of Pacific Beach provides Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care in one setting, allowing residents to remain on the same campus even if their needs change. The community can support residents who wander during the day or night, those at risk of elopement, individuals who are awake overnight, and people who require oxygen or special diets, including diabetics on oral medications. Care teams are experienced in managing advanced dementia and related behavioral conditions, so families do not have to seek another placement if cognitive decline progresses.
Registered and licensed nurses are on staff, and caregivers are awake on every shift. Background checks are completed for all employees, and the building has 24-hour staffing, door alarms, and Wander Guard technology. A pull-cord alert system links residents directly to staff. On-site podiatry is available, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting can be provided at the full-assistance level, and caregivers can accommodate walkers, wheelchairs, standby help, and one-person transfers.
Apartments may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, basic furnishings, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate, though not every unit offers every feature. Independent Living residents can elect medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry service, and a monthly meal plan so they can downsize household chores while still maintaining an active lifestyle.
Meals are prepared to order, and snacks are available throughout the day. The culinary team handles diet modifications and management for residents who need low-sugar, low-sodium, or other physician-ordered meal plans. Dining rooms are shared by residents in different care levels, which streamlines monitoring for those who require assistance and gives more independent residents freedom to socialize at their own pace.
Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an exercise room, movie room, wellness center, barber and beauty shop, and high-speed internet. The campus has communal gardens, designated outdoor smoking areas, and scheduled transportation in addition to proximity to public transit. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
