81 Residential Care Homes near Albuquerque, NM

Last Updated: 7/3/24

Residential care homes in Albuquerque may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Albuquerque 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 Albuquerque, 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 Renaissance, Heritage Hills and Eastside.
You may also consider nearby communities such as Rio Rancho, South Valley or Los Ranchos de Albuquerque.

Recent reviews of Residential Care Home in Albuquerque, NM
Willowwood Assisted Living in Albuquerque, NM
4.9

The staff members at Willowood Assisted Living are so great and friendly and our loved one is really well taken care of. He always looks clean and is being fed really well. We have absolutely no complaints or see any red flags with this community. His favorite thing is sitting outside in the courtyard to enjoy the fresh air. They have people come and play music for the residents. They have exercises, and what we really liked is before our loved one moved in they already had a dresser and a bed for him. The community does not feel clinical at all, not sterile but like a home. Also communication is very important to our family and they communicate with us about everything no matter how big or small something may be.

Vista Sandia Assisted Living in Albuquerque, NM
4.8

Vista Sandia is a house and the residents are frequently out in the common area interacting with each other and not being isolated in their rooms. The staff talk to our loved one and try to help. They offer up a lot of services, and is being well taken care of. We are happy with how things are going so far. We would recommend this community to others.

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.
