Licensed care homes near UCI Health - Irvine
A discharge date can arrive with days of notice. This page lists the state-licensed care homes the record can place within 3 miles of the hospital, nearest first.
It is a list of licenses. It never says which homes can take someone today — only the home can answer that. Distance is measured in a straight line, not by driving time.
Homes and their care clearances: California Department of Social Services licensing record, refreshed September 28, 2026. Hospital name and location: the California Department of Public Health Licensed and Certified Healthcare Facility Listing, dated September 16, 2026.

24 licensed care homes within 3 miles of UCI Health - Irvine
Ordered by straight-line distance from the hospital and by nothing else. No home pays to appear here, no home pays for its position, and nothing on this page is scored or ranked.
A home the state record gives no map location for cannot be measured, so it is not here.
Orange County lists every licensed home, placed or not.
“On file” means the state record shows that clearance for that home. “Not on file” is not a no — it means the record does not show one.
Some approvals are bed- or room-specific. Ask the home before you plan a discharge.

How are the homes near UCI Health - Irvine ordered?
By straight-line distance from the hospital, closest first, with ties broken by name. Distance is the only ordering rule on this page. Nothing here is ranked by size, price, quality or payment.
No home can buy a higher place in the list.
Does this page show which homes can take someone today?
No. Every home here holds a current California license. Whether a room is free today is a question only the home can answer.
Call the ones that fit and ask. Open any home to find its phone number and its full state record.
What is a licensed care home, and how is it different from a nursing home?
Every home on this page holds a residential care facility for the elderly license (the state calls it an RCFE). These homes provide housing, meals and help with daily living. They are licensed by the Department of Social Services.
A skilled nursing facility is a different license, from the Department of Public Health, for people who need daily nursing care. A discharge to one is a different decision from a discharge to a care home.
Choosing under a deadline is hard, and no list makes that easy. This one is free, and it holds every licensed home the state record can place inside 3 miles — in one order, with nothing withheld from it.
A hospital with fewer than 5 licensed homes within 5 miles has no page here. A list that short would describe the neighborhood by leaving most of it out.
