Overview of Blue Skies Assisted Living

Blue Skies Assisted Living is an assisted living community in San Marcos, California, where residents receive help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while remaining within the community. With six beds, it is a small setting where staff and residents can get to know each other. All resident places are currently filled, and rooms are semi private, shared with another person.

Residents have access to a garden and backyard, with activities that include planting and gardening, meditation, and sports.

Jcmy Care Homes operates the community, which may be a good fit for someone who needs daily assisted living support or a short term respite stay.
