Count of California state "Type A" citations — the state's most serious citation category (immediate or serious harm to residents), from California state inspection data.
Number of years the company has been in operation.
Reported or derived occupancy for the facility—typically how fully licensed capacity is utilized. Compare across peers in the same market.

Overview of Redwood Terrace

Redwood Terrace offers assisted living and residential care in Central Escondido and opened in 1997. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while the resident keeps their own apartment. The community has 210 beds, so residents live among a larger population with more staff and usually more programming. It is a sizable community.

Housing includes one bed and two bed residences. A two bed arrangement can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion. Redwood Terrace may be a good fit for someone who needs help with daily tasks and prefers one of these housing arrangements. The patio gives residents an outdoor place to spend time.

A Walk Score of 69 places the area in the somewhat walkable band, meaning some errands can be done on foot. A resident who no longer drives may be able to handle some errands independently. Leif Cameron serves as the administrator, and Humangood and Humangood Socal operate the community.
