Is “board and care” different from “assisted living” in Carlsbad?
The label follows licensed capacity, not a different license. Of Carlsbad's 28 licensed homes, 17 are small board-and-care homes licensed for 6 or fewer residents, 2 are mid-size homes licensed for 7–15, and 9 are larger assisted-living communities licensed for 16 or more (CDSS license-capacity records, refreshed September 27, 2026). All hold the same state RCFE license.
Does Medi-Cal help pay for assisted living in Carlsbad?
Yes — at participating homes, through Medi-Cal's Assisted Living Waiver (ALW), which pays for care services, not room and board. 2 of Carlsbad's 28 licensed homes appear on the DHCS ALW participant list, checked September 27, 2026; San Diego County has 88 participating homes in all. Participating homes carry a “Medi-Cal ALW” marker in the list above.
