Assisted living Hillcrest, San Diego

Hillcrest is a vibrant neighborhood just a short drive from our central San Diego location. We provide a specialized “home away from home” for Hillcrest residents who require more intensive memory care than traditional home-care services can offer. By moving to our secured community, Hillcrest seniors gain access to 24/7 dementia-trained staff and a structured daily routine that is specifically designed to reduce the anxiety often associated with Alzheimer’s.

Yes, we offer 30-day Respite Care stays for Hillcrest families. This is a great solution for caregivers who need to take a break or for seniors who need extra support while recovering from a medical procedure. Your loved one will stay in a fully furnished studio and have access to our full range of services, including medication management and social activities, giving Hillcrest families peace of mind during temporary care periods.

Our culinary team prepares three nutritious meals a day, focusing on fresh, in-season ingredients and homemade soups. For our Hillcrest residents with specific needs, we offer diabetic-friendly options and monitor food/fluid intake to ensure health and hydration. We pride ourselves on a dining experience that is both healthy and “chef-inspired,” making mealtime a social highlight of the day in our San Diego community.

Our facility is a “secured environment,” meaning it is specifically designed to prevent unsafe wandering while still allowing residents the freedom to explore. We have keypad-entry systems and spacious, secure outdoor courtyards and walking paths. This allows Hillcrest seniors with dementia to enjoy fresh air and exercise in a protected space, ensuring they stay active without the risk of becoming lost.

Club Stellar is ideal for Hillcrest residents who are just beginning to experience cognitive changes. This program provides a high level of socialization and a structured daily schedule at a specific rate. It bridges the gap between independent living and full memory care, allowing Hillcrest seniors to maintain their current cognitive skills through engagement and community life in a supportive San Diego setting.
