Silver Oak Country Estates in Vista, California, sits at 138 Sun Villa Court in a quiet, private cul-de-sac with park-like grounds and three custom-built homes, each designed with only six licensed beds, so the feel is personal and cozy and you aren't lost in a crowd the way bigger places sometimes do it, and these homes have traditional furnishing or you can bring your own if you like, and each has large individual rooms with private, lockable bathrooms, or you can choose a semi-private room. This is a licensed Residential Care Elderly facility, surveyed by California's Department of Social Services, license number 374602670, and it offers assisted living, memory care, independent living, respite care, home care, and hospice care, so people don't have to move away if needs change, and it also has support for non-ambulatory and incontinence care, plus a Continence Management Program and a Fall Risk Management Program, with staff to help people who need assistance moving, showering, bathing, or getting dressed, and the staff stays awake around the clock for safety, with a quick-response system.
The facility provides personal care and thorough health oversight with regular visits from a licensed nurse and a Board Certified Physician, with home health nurses on call as needed, plus visits from specialists like wound care doctors, cardiologists, dentists, and podiatrists, and they coordinate medication management, scheduled health care clinics, wellness visits, and have programs to support people with diabetes or special diets for health conditions. They have memory care that helps keep people with Alzheimer's or dementia safe and comfortable and keep confusion and wandering to a minimum, and monthly wellness visits and staff trained in elderly care services. The homes are pet-friendly, so cats and dogs are welcome, and Silver Oak helps arrange transportation to doctor's appointments, shopping, and religious services, with parking options for those who drive. Meals are served in a common dining room and a cozy kitchen café, three times daily, made with fresh ingredients, with home-baked goods, snacks all day, and a variety of menu choices, and the staff modifies diets where needed for blood pressure, diabetes, or other needs.
There's a hair salon on-site, and mobile barbers visit if people need, along with a book room, library, general store, health room, an indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna, and even a putting green and decorated courtyard, so folks have indoor and outdoor options for relaxing or socializing. The facility sets up creative programs, music, yoga, crafts, regular movie nights, community evening events, birthday celebrations, and offers daily activities ranging from chair exercise classes and art and music therapy to board games and group outings like lawn bowling and trips away from the home. The grounds give a lot of open space for walking or sitting, and there is an intergenerational preschool program inviting young children to visit, which cheers a lot of residents.
Silver Oak accepts private pay, Medicaid, long-term care insurance, and veterans aid and attendance as payment, and the starting rate for assisted living is $3,000 per month, but final pricing depends on what help and room type a person needs, as support and amenities vary from person to person. Rooms are fully furnished, but you can bring personal items, and the homes are carefully monitored for safety with a 24-hour security system and regular check-ins, plus staff can help with 2-person transfers and insulin dosing if needed, though a confirmation of this is advised before committing. With a flexible schedule and no curfews, people can come and go as they please within reason, and families can feel comfortable knowing there is always help nearby.
Silver Oak Country Estates offers six beds per house, focusing on safety, comfort, and a home-like feeling, and aims to keep residents active and involved with fitness schedules, pet therapy, outings, worship services, and social or cultural activities each day. You won't find a lot of fuss or flash, but you do get caring, steady help in a secure, peaceful setting that a lot of people enjoy when they're looking for somewhere quiet and thoughtful to spend their later years.
