Read the local overview
Ontario has 9 state-licensed residential care homes for the elderly on the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) licensing record, last refreshed September 13, 2026: 5 small board-and-care homes (licensed for 6 or fewer residents), 1 mid-size home (7–15), and 3 larger assisted-living communities (16 or more). 2 participate in Medi-Cal's Assisted Living Waiver (DHCS participant list, checked September 13, 2026). For county-level context, assisted living in San Bernardino County typically runs $3,500–$5,500/mo and small board-and-care homes $3,000–$5,000/mo (market research compiled June 2026 — ranges, not quotes); California's 2026 SSI/SSP payment standard is $1,626.07/month, of which $1,444.07 is the room-and-board portion paid to the home.

Which care homes are licensed in Ontario?
As of September 13, 2026, the California Department of Social Services licensing record lists 9 residential care facilities for the elderly with an active license in Ontario (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 Ontario?
The label follows licensed capacity, not a different license. Of Ontario's 9 licensed homes, 5 are small board-and-care homes licensed for 6 or fewer residents, 1 is a mid-size home licensed for 7–15, and 3 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 Ontario?
Yes — at participating homes, through Medi-Cal's Assisted Living Waiver (ALW), which pays for care services, not room and board. 2 of Ontario's 9 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.
