SENIOR Living Options

Memory Care

Placing a parent or loved one in a memory care community can be heart-wrenching decision. Family members naturally want to keep those they love close, but as memory loss progresses, the challenge of providing care can become overwhelming.

Heritage Hills Memory Care in Oceanside provides a place where a new phase of life can begin for those with memory loss. With a network of people at their disposal around-the-clock — including highly trained caregivers and nurses, activity directors, chefs, launderers, and housekeepers — those in our care enjoy greater comfort, security, and social enrichment than was possible at home. This network of caregivers and fellow residents creates a community of familiar faces and compassionate friends.

Short-Term Respite Care

Barton Creek Senior Living offers convenient short-term respite care services at an all-inclusive daily rate. Short-term stay residents will receive the same amenities during their respite as our residents who proudly call Barton Creek home.

You might consider short-term respite care when you need:

•    Support after a hospital stay
•    Continued short-term rehabilitation after a skilled nursing stay
•    A place to stay when an emergency has made your home unsafe or uninhabitable
•    A short-term respite care stay can also help you experience what Barton Creek senior living has to offer. This is a great way to see how you fit in with our current residents before you decide to become a full-time resident.

If you are a caregiver, you might also consider a short-term stay when you need a break — whether it’s for work, a vacation, or just a much-needed breather — and you don’t want to leave a loved one who is not fully independent.

About US

At Heritage Hills, our nurses and personal caregivers understand that trust is built through consistency and compassion, the touch of a hand, a look in the eye, a smile. They make it a point to know each resident personally — their history, their likes and dislikes, and their specific memory-related needs. Extensively trained in supporting those with memory loss, our caregivers feel the joy that comes from making life better for others. They stand at-the-ready to provide compassionate assistance and support 24-hours a day.

Because our community provides a full range of care, including hospice, our residents never have to leave. We will be here for them as long as they need us. We communicate openly with family members and among our staff so our care remains flexible and ongoing as needs change.

This place is truly awful. My mom has been here quite sometime. I am being told by caregivers that she we should remove her immediately. That she doesn't receive adequate care here. That they are extremely understaffed. That there has even come a time when 1 caregiver had to work a whole floor themselves during the morning and evening shift. So therefore how is one person giving showers, feeding them , changing them and caring for them. I am being told my mom is sometimes not fed because they forget to feed her. They use the supplies that I buy for her like combs, socks and shirts and use them for other residents. They use my mom's wipes and briefs for other residents. That the staff does not use hoyer as they should be and sometimes one caregiver is transferring my mom who is not that skinny or lightweight onto the wheel chair and back for meals. I didn't think much because I barely am able to visit with my work schedule and so a I was told this by caregivers Mike the director is apparently cheap and does not provide enough supplies that even caregivers have to go without wipes or gloves. I will be calling the state licensing and have them come in the specific days and times the caregivers have explained to me so that they could see what's really going on.

My dad has been here for 2 years and I’m just finding out from a employee that they wake him up at 3:00 -4:00 am along with other residents here just so that they can finish in time and they have very bad staffing. Every-time I go there’s residents in wheel chairs who need assistance being fed and the caregivers give them only a couple bites then do something else because and forget to feed them because they are always understaffed. Also my dad is always having two briefs or pull ups that end of being full of his bowel movements and incontinent. My dad always gets cold food it’s never hot. Last time I was there another resident was on the floor just laying down and no caregiver attended him. This place is dirty and understaffed . I will be reporting to licensing.

I want to say a special thank you to Sherrie at HH for her care of my mom. Sherrie is such a wonderful person and it comes through in her work, making it not seem like work at all. She is patient, playful and kind, and I know has the best interest of my mom. Congratulations on Employee of the Month Sherrie! I feel so grateful we found HH. My mom has been there over a year now and it has taken a while for her to adjust as it would for anyone, but fortunately she had the support of all the staff helping her feel safe and settled in. I want to also thank Lome, Evalyn, Fela, Darryl, Amanda, Alyssa, Lorie, Celina, Monica, Mike and of course, Sherrie, and all the caregivers that support my mom everyday. Your work is important and very appreciated.

This is the best memory care facility. My mother was in one in Vista and it was dreadful so I moved her to heritage hills and I am overwhelmed with the kindness and helpfulness of all the staff. I cannot speak highly enough of this facility and the staff. My mother has gone downhill rapidly and they have stepped up to make her comfortable and easy for my sister and I.
