Which kinds of care are licensed in Madera County?
Each page below lists every licensed Madera County home that matches that care type. CDSS licensing records, refreshed October 26, 2026; homes are listed alphabetically, never ranked. A care approval that is not on file is not a "no" — the record simply holds nothing today.

The ALW — the Medi-Cal program that pays for assisted-living care services, though not room and board — has licensed participating homes in 15 California counties, and DHCS enrollment records as of October 1, 2026 list none in Madera County.
