Capistrano Senior Living

31741 Rancho Viejo Rd A, San Juan Capistrano, CA 92675
Overview of Capistrano Senior Living

Capistrano Senior Living in San Juan Capistrano, CA, has seven care types on its list. Skilled nursing, nursing home care, and hospice care are three, and independent living, assisted living, memory care, and respite care make up the rest.

An independent living resident has a private residence and access to community services but no daily care. For assisted living residents, staff take on bathing, dressing, medication, and the rest of a day’s tasks. Memory care puts supervision around wandering risk in a secured area. Skilled nursing brings licensed nurses who stay on through the night.

Hospice is the end-of-life level. A short-term respite stay is available for the time a caregiver at home must be elsewhere. With the levels all here, a change in need happens inside the community, which is what someone wanting several options in one place is after.

All 125 beds are occupied, so an opening is not something to count on. Housing starts at a studio, which is a single private room, and runs to layouts of one and two bedrooms. Two bedrooms make sense for a couple or for someone wanting a companion. A resident’s pet may live there too.

Each resident averages 3h 36m of nursing daily. Rehabilitation services and Short-Term Rehab cover recovery during a temporary stay. The community features a fitness center, a library, a spa, a courtyard, a patio, and transportation services.

Medicare covers skilled care for a limited period once someone leaves the hospital, not a long residence, and everything else is private pay, with the family paying its own way. Walk Score’s 68 means somewhat walkable, which leaves some nearby errands within reach for a resident without a car. Bryan Hadley administers the community, and Asrv LLC operates it.
