Solaris 48 sits in Poway, California, and is a small, home-like residential care facility with a licensed capacity of six beds, offering both private and shared rooms, some with bathrooms, and studio room layouts for seniors who want more independence or need assistance. The community was established in 2017 and focuses on assisted living, memory care, and several health services, with live-in staff and licensed caregivers-usually two during the day and one at night-providing 24-hour supervision and help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, laundry, meals, medication management, and transfers. For people dealing with Alzheimer's or dementia, memory care services aim to prevent wandering and ease confusion, with special therapies and support designed to relieve anxiety and slow cognitive decline, plus extra safety measures such as delayed egress and room for bed-bound residents.
Solaris 48 also assists with non-ambulatory care, diabetic care, incontinence care, and offers hospice care, all under the same roof, and residents can use central dining services where meals are made on-site in a central kitchen with attention given to quality ingredients and nutrition; the facility includes wheelchair accessible showers, beautician and manicurist services, laundry, and housekeeping help, plus a fall prevention program for added safety. The grounds have indoor common spaces, a garden, outdoor shaded areas, walking paths, and parking, along with transportation arranged for medical appointments or outings, and both onsite and offsite individual or group activities like devotional and religious services, social events, and more.
Solaris 48 features Adult Care Homes with not more than ten residents per house to promote a more intimate, supportive setting, and also offers short-term skilled nursing care to help people recover from illness or injury with medical oversight and physical therapy, as well as home care and home health services for those needing personal support or health monitoring outside the main house. Residents can choose from independent living setups if they're active and healthy, CCRCs for flexible care as needs change, or stick with traditional assisted living. Security and monitoring systems help keep things safe, and the staff aims for a friendly, joyful atmosphere, helping seniors feel part of a caring community. Support, referrals, and help with communication are also provided.
