St. Paul’s Villa in San Diego, CA, delivers assisted living and memory care. Respite care is available, too.
Assisted living is care that helps with daily tasks, dressing, bathing, and medication, among others, and the resident manages their own private space. A family reaches for memory care when supervision becomes essential. Memory care supplies supervision inside a space that’s kept secure, addressing the risk of wandering brought on by dementia. A respite stay goes into the calendar with its end date already set, arranged around a caregiver’s own trip or recovery.
