A board-and-care home is a residential care facility for the elderly (RCFE) licensed for six or fewer residents — usually an ordinary house with a small staff. California licenses and inspects it under the same rules as a large assisted-living community, and its inspection history is public record the same way. Capacity on this page comes from each home’s licensed capacity on the state record, not from marketing. ## Sources - CDSS licensing roster, September 27, 2026
