Which care homes are licensed in Irvine?
As of October 26, 2026, the California Department of Social Services licensing record lists 20 residential care facilities for the elderly with an active license in Irvine (Orange County). Each appears in the full alphabetical list above with its licensed capacity, license status, state-recorded care clearances, and a link to its complete state record on this site.
Is “board and care” different from “assisted living” in Irvine?
The label follows licensed capacity, not a different license. Of Irvine's 20 licensed homes, 16 are small board-and-care homes licensed for 6 or fewer residents, 0 are homes licensed for 7–15, and 4 are larger assisted-living communities licensed for 16 or more (CDSS license-capacity records, refreshed October 26, 2026). All hold the same state RCFE license.
Does Medi-Cal help pay for assisted living in Irvine?
Yes — at participating homes, through Medi-Cal's Assisted Living Waiver (ALW), which pays for care services, not room and board. 7 of Irvine's 20 licensed homes appear on the DHCS ALW participant list, checked October 26, 2026; Orange County has 196 participating homes in all. Participating homes carry a “Medi-Cal ALW” marker in the list above.
