Assisted Living
My 89 year old mother had a fall in March of 2020, at the same time COVID was rising. She went from being hospitalized, to weeks in skilled nursing, and then we needed to find a Board and Care home for her to live in. Imagine having to manage your elderly parent's care from afar because not only do you not live in the area, but due to COVID you haven't been able to visit in person since she entered skilled nursing--and now have to find a place for her to live without being able to be there. It was an incredibly difficult, painful situation. We were incredibly lucky to be led to the the compassionate, kind, skilled team at Claredon Senior Living. Without ever meeting in person, we were able to work with them to find a place for our mother at the Cottages at Lake Balboa. [names removed] were responsive, a pleasure to work with, and truly committed and passionate about working with elders. The level of care she received was simply top of the line. Though she had dementia, she was able to share that she felt safe, cared for, and that the staff were just wonderful. The executive team met with relatives of patients on a Zoom call, and unsolicited, the other relatives welcomed us to the Lake Balboa family, shared that they felt 100% confident with the care their loved ones were receiving, and how grateful they were they were there. Any family would be lucky to have their loved one in their care.
Read moreMy uncle has been a resident for about 3 years. The care he receives is exceptional, not only in the objective medical criteria, but in the equally important quality of care and personal, caring atmosphere. This is like a home with caring relatives. I have had a lot of experience recently with long-term care, with parents who are in their 90"s , and I wish there was a facility like this where they live. This is a placement you can feel good about! My uncle is very happy and fulfilled living here. He gets so much individual care, including doughnuts from his favorite donut shop.
Read moreMy father was a resident at Evergreen for just shy of two years. Unfortunately when he was diagnosed with dementia, we needed to move him to a residence with a higher level of care. He had one of the few one bedroom apartments available. The staff and caregivers were very attentive to his needs. There are plenty activities for the residents to take part in if they choose. My father was very happy with the meals. He loved the caregivers who helped him with bathing. Overall, Evergreen was the perfect place for him.

The average cost of senior living in Los Angeles is 4,630 per month. Cheaper nearby regions include North Hollywood, CA with an average of 2,500 per month.
Planning ahead can better position you to make good choices for your loved one’s care in the future. But if your aging family member needs care now, there are ways to finance the cost of long-term care through a combination of approaches.
Assisted living is long-term care for seniors who are generally active and independent, but who require increased supervision and help with some daily tasks. Staff can assist residents with activities of daily living like dressing, bathing, and medication management. Assisted living is also a good option for seniors seeking more socialization.
