Which care homes are licensed in Nipomo?

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 Nipomo (San Luis Obispo 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 Nipomo?

The label follows licensed capacity, not a different license. Of Nipomo's 5 licensed homes, 4 are small board-and-care homes licensed for 6 or fewer residents, 0 are mid-size homes licensed for 7–15, and 1 is a larger assisted-living community 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 Nipomo?

Not through the Assisted Living Waiver here. The ALW — Medi-Cal's program that pays for assisted-living care services, not room and board — operates in a limited set of California counties, and no San Luis Obispo County home appears on the DHCS participant list, checked September 13, 2026. The statewide Medi-Cal page lists every participating county and home.
