About

Summerfield of Encinitas operates a 56-bed memory care community on South El Camino Real under California Community Care License #374604227, specializing in Alzheimer's disease, dementia, and cognitive impairment residential care. The facility provides 24-hour supervision with 12-to-16-hour dedicated nursing coverage and individualized medication management, coordinating resident chronic-disease monitoring alongside Coastal Cardiovascular Care on the North County medical corridor. Northstar Senior Living operates the community as part of a 35-property portfolio, applying a Montessori-based enrichment model that structures art therapy, music programs, and cognitive stimulation activities around each resident's preserved abilities. An on-site adult day program provides structured daytime engagement and caregiver respite services, with prescription coordination routed through North Coast Medical Pharmacy for streamlined fulfillment. The community's highest-acuity programming includes secure courtyard walking circuits with wandering-prevention technology and individualized behavior-mapping protocols for residents with late-stage Alzheimer's disease requiring round-the-clock redirection support.
