About

Atria Collwood is an independent and assisted living community in College Area at 5308 Monroe Ave, San Diego, CA 92115, holding California RCFE License #374600890 as part of Atria Senior Living's national network of more than 200 communities across 28 states. The campus offers studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartment floor plans with walk-in showers, emergency call systems, and cable-ready wiring, starting at published independent living rates around $2,578 per month before care services. An on-site nurse with active California licensure conducts individualized care assessments for assisted living residents, and the 24-hour staff provides support with bathing, grooming, incontinence management, and medication reminders. Physical wellness programming includes a fitness center, walking paths through landscaped courtyards, and a resident garden, with third-party rehabilitation coordinated through PhysioFixx Physical Therapy in San Carlos for post-surgical or fall-recovery physical and occupational therapy. The Monroe Avenue campus sits near El Cajon Boulevard and Colina Park Golf Course, within the 92115 ZIP roughly one mile south of the SDSU campus, giving residents and visiting family members access to the College Area dining and retail corridor. Dining operations run through a full-service restaurant-style dining room, a casual cafe with complimentary snacks, and an outdoor grilling area where on-site chefs prepare meals from seasonal menus designed around nutritional guidelines for older adults. Atria's Engage Life events calendar schedules programming across six dimensions of engagement, and a full-time events director manages activities including cognitive enrichment, creative expression, fitness classes, and social connection events. Residents requiring primary care coordination beyond the community's internal health services connect with neighborhood physicians such as Tram Le, MD in College Area for ongoing general practice management. Additional campus amenities include a movie theater, library, dedicated worship space, scheduled local transportation, and housekeeping and linen services included in the monthly rental rate.
