A Place for Mom
Who are you searching for?

Residential care homes in San Jose may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. San Jose care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.

Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in San Jose, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.

We are also serving Residential Care Home facilities in surrounding neighborhoods like Sunnyvale, Santa Clara and Fruitdale.

This home is beautiful and immaculately clean. The caregivers [names removed] have a calling to provide care straight from the heart. This isn’t just a job. My father was treated like family with love, compassion, and skill. I only regret we didn’t find this facility many years earlier.

They're doing a great job. It's still new but I don't have a problem with anything so far. We looked at several homes before choosing Gems Senior Care, and noticed a real difference here.

What are care homes?

Residential care homes are houses in residential neighborhoods that are equipped, adapted, and staffed to care for a small number of residents, usually between two and 10.

Learn More About Care Homes in San Jose, CA

 

Residential care homes — sometimes called care homes, board and care homes, group homes, or personal care homes — are often houses in residential neighborhoods that are adapted, equipped, and staffed to care for a small number of residents, usually 10 or less. Similar to assisted living but in a smaller, more residential setting, these homes provide supervision, organized events, and assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs). This means care homes can help with everyday routines but typically do not provide 24-hour skilled nursing assistance.

Cost of Care Homes in San Jose, CA

In the state of California, the median monthly cost for a room in a care home is about $3,500. However, the cost of living in a care home depends largely on location. Since the homes are private residences, costs are tied to real estate value and therefore may vary greatly.

A Place for Mom’s local Senior Living Advisors can help find the right residential care home in San Jose for you or your loved one.
