Which care homes are licensed in Montclair?

As of September 13, 2026, the California Department of Social Services licensing record lists 5 residential care facilities for the elderly with an active license in Montclair (San Bernardino 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 Montclair?

The label follows licensed capacity, not a different license. Of Montclair's 5 licensed homes, 3 are small board-and-care homes licensed for 6 or fewer residents, 0 are mid-size homes licensed for 7–15, and 2 are larger assisted-living communities licensed for 16 or more (CDSS license-capacity records, refreshed September 13, 2026). All hold the same state RCFE license.

Does Medi-Cal help pay for assisted living in Montclair?

Yes — at participating homes, through Medi-Cal's Assisted Living Waiver (ALW), which pays for care services, not room and board. 4 of Montclair's 5 licensed homes appear on the DHCS ALW participant list, checked September 13, 2026; San Bernardino County has 62 participating homes in all. Participating homes carry a “Medi-Cal ALW” marker in the list above.
