La Paloma Healthcare Center is a nursing home in Oceanside, CA, offering skilled nursing, hospice care, memory care, palliative care, and respite care. Skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site, while memory care offers supervision in a secured setting for residents who may be at risk of wandering. Hospice care focuses on comfort for someone nearing the end of life. Palliative care addresses symptoms and comfort during serious illness, while respite care provides a short stay when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover.
The community has 93 beds. Total nurse staffing is 3 hours 54 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily hands on nursing time assigned per resident. The combination of memory care and respite care may make La Paloma Healthcare Center a good fit for someone who needs supervised dementia support or for a family caregiver who needs temporary coverage.
Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Medicare covers short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence, while Medicaid can help when savings may not cover a long stay. Private pay means the family pays directly. In the Tri City neighborhood, a Walk Score of 59 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to reach some destinations independently.
