Who are you searching for?
Residential care homes in Long Beach may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Long Beach 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 Long Beach, 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 Plaza, Eastside Long Beach and Westside Long Beach.
You may also consider nearby communities such as Huntington Beach, Garden Grove or Signal Hill.

Residential Care Home
Our father required 24 hr care and the finding a residential board & care facility is difficult. Blessings has truly been a blessing to our family! The staff truly cares for the residents as their own family While providing a place that is safe, clean and friendly,
This is a very nice place with very good care for the residents. I really like the staff at this community. The tour was great and they were able to show me everything that I needed and give me all of the information that I needed.
It was just divine timing that a spot had opened up there just before I was able to look at facilities. It was the first place we saw and it just felt completely right. Nothing has changed from that initial impression for any of us- it is clean, warm, and friendly. The residents are very well cared for. [Removed] are really sweet people to work with. I did not learn about it from the internet nor did I look online for reviews. I personally spoke by phone with a few family members of previous and current residents, and they were all very positive.

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:
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.
The median monthly cost of a room in a Long Beach care home is around $4,200 in the city proper and $3,460 within the metropolitan area. 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 Long Beach for you or your loved one.
