138 Residential Care Homes near Fairfax, CA

Last Updated: 2/21/25

Residential care homes in Fairfax may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Fairfax 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 Fairfax, 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.


You may also consider nearby communities such as Richmond, San Rafael or San Anselmo.

Recent reviews of Residential Care Home in Fairfax, CA
St. Francis Manor I in San Francisco, CA
4.8

My mother was recently there for the last two months of her life. She was not easy to care for, and I am eternally grateful to [name removed] and her staff for the loving, devoted and professional care that she got. They were very flexible with family preferences. [name removed] was also a great resource on palliative and hospice care options in the City. This home is a godsend.

Family Affair Care Home in San Bruno, CA
3.9

We chose this facility because of what they said they were offering for the price and they sounded like they could meet the needs of our loved one. The on-boarding process with Family Affair Care Home was great. Communication has been a challenge at times, this has been an issue since we need to be involved in our loved ones care. I think it is really important for you to have everything in writing as far as the cost agreement so you know exactly what you will be paying. I would tell others looking to physically go and tour and ask a lot of questions, especially who your main point of contact will be. It can be successful as long as you are clear from the start. The staff do the best that they can, but I think they need better support from the owner.

Discover the many ways to pay for senior living

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.

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. Like assisted living communities, staff at care homes typically help residents with activities of daily living, including bathing, dressing, and medication management. Although residential care homes vary significantly depending on the community, services usually include:

  • Help with personal care
  • Medication management
  • Mobility assistance
  • Nutritious meals
  • Social activities and outings
  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
