This is a simple promise that the staff at Emeritus at Escondido – and throughout Emeritus Senior Living communities – has shared since 1998, when our community first opened its doors. It’s a simple promise to be compassionate and kind, understanding and respectful – a promise to become extended family to the seniors entrusted in our care and to our retirees who have chosen our community for its active lifestyle – a promise to exceed our residents’ expectations on a daily basis.
Right at Home
Set on four acres of beautifully landscaped grounds with a courtyard and walking trails, Emeritus at Escondido is considered one of Escondido’s premier senior living communities. Located in the heart of Escondido, close to Highway 78 and I-15, our community offers 84 apartments on two floors, each with wonderful views of our expansive lawns and trees. Here our residents – in many cases, with their pets – enjoy retirement living. Yet should you need a helping hand from our warm and caring staff, who consider themselves guests in your home, we also offer complete assisted living services, tailor-made to your needs. We’ve designed our services to focus on wellness, helping you maintain or improve your health, so you can live as independently as possible.
New friends, new beginnings
Our common areas – including our lovely dining room, TV room and activities center – give residents and their loved ones the opportunity to get to know one another. We also offer a wide range of activities each month, including clubs and community outings to Carlsbad State Beach and local casinos – plus we are well connected with the local senior community.
Emeritus at Escondido is conveniently located in an urban area close to all types of shopping and restaurants, as well as Washington Mutual, Bank of America and Wells Fargo. Our community is also close to the 190-acre Lake Wohlford, which is packed with trout, largemouth bass and catfish. As the reviews say, “This spot is sheer dreamland for fishermen!†Palomar Hospital and a nursing home rehabilitation facility are close by if ever needed.
As we get older, many of us naturally need a helping hand – perhaps someone to help us get ready for the day, help manage our medications or prepare special meals to fit our unique dietary needs. Sometimes that extra help is all we need to continue living safely on our own.
Our staff is here to offer a helping hand, but only when and if you need it. When you join our senior living community, we’ll take the time to carefully assess your needs before recommending specific assisted living services. In fact, we use a state-of-the-art computerized assessment system (called the Vigilan Resident Evaluation Program), which helps us accurately evaluate, predict and monitor all personal care services for each of our residents.
Sometimes our residents may require a little extra attention or assistance due to Alzheimer's, Dementia or Memory Loss. Emeritus memory care offers a unique and innovative program called Join Their Journey®.
In addition, our Director of Resident Care will visit with you on a regular basis to personally discuss health-related issues and to monitor your progress. We also work with your personal healthcare professionals to arrange on-site visits and rehabilitative therapies as needed.
Depending upon your situation and health concerns, services could include:*
•Daily assistance with bathing and dressing
•Medication management
•Dining assistance and special diets
•Assistance with reminders and redirection
•Escorts and assistance with walking
•Diabetic management
•Physical therapy
