The assisted-living center will have 48 apartments for those needing daily assistance. Sixteen of the units will be in an Alzheimer's wing that will provide dementia care and a memory support program.
The center also will have a 48-bed skilled nursing facility with 24-hour nursing care and hospice and rehabilitative services.
Continuing Life Communities is a San Diego County-based corporation that develops and operates continuing-care retirement communities in California.
Meanwhile, construction is continuing on the independent-living campus at University Village. The first residents are scheduled to move in during late spring. A grand opening is planned for fall.
