Atria Hillcrest in Thousand Oaks, California offers three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can remain on the same campus even if their needs change. Each program is designed to support day-to-day wellness and is coordinated with on-site and visiting health professionals to help residents manage chronic conditions, recovery, and cognitive changes without leaving the community.
Medical oversight is available around the clock. A physician is on call, and a structured mental wellness program can be integrated into each resident’s care plan. Short-term respite stays are accepted, giving family caregivers a break or allowing prospective residents to experience the community before committing long-term. Licensed staff members are on duty 24 hours a day, supported by an emergency call system in every apartment and a secured environment for residents who may wander. A dedicated therapy room allows physical, occupational, or speech therapy sessions to be carried out on site, minimizing the need for off-campus appointments.
Accommodation options range from studios to larger floor plans, and many include a kitchenette and independent temperature controls so residents can manage light meal prep and room comfort. Housekeeping is provided on a scheduled basis, and laundry services are available weekly, reducing daily chores for residents. Not every apartment has all listed features, so it is advisable to confirm details when touring.
Dining follows a flexible schedule with multiple seating times in the main restaurant-style dining room. A private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings or special events, and vegetarian entrées are consistently available alongside standard menu choices. Staff dietitians oversee meal planning to align choices with physician-ordered dietary requirements.
Beyond care and dining, residents have access to amenities that support an active routine and social engagement. The community offers resident parking, scheduled transportation, and Internet access throughout common areas. A barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, library, and communal gardens are located on site, and pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
