From old-growth Redwood forests to white sandy beaches, California has earned its nickname as The Golden State for good reason. California is home to great weather, year-round sunshine, and unmatched beauty. When it comes to board care homes, California has many great options.
The median monthly cost of a care home in California 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.
Residential Care Home
We chose Vintage Home because of the location primarily. The room sizes here vary, if you are able to get the bigger ones, they are pretty spacious and they also have smaller ones. The owner was very attentive and I would recommend them.
Read moreFamily Style Care II is going well. I love it. Mom is happy there. they are very caring and loving. They could take a little more care with the rooms. Mom has a crack in her closet door and it is glass. Also her hospital bed wasn't working for a while. They finally called someone in and it turned out it just wasn't plugged in. The way that they treat her compensates for any of those small issues though. I am very happy with this facility. I was told it is all inclusive, but every time I go visit they tell me she needs this or that. So I was a little disappointed with that. Overall I would recommend this facility.
