Care type

Assisted living, checked before you tour.

A shortlist of assisted living communities that can meet the person's needs — with the monthly cost, the care level, and the licensing record for each one. Free to families.

No contract. No obligation. A reply within one business day — same day for active discharges.

What assisted living is

Assisted living is for someone who can't safely live alone but doesn't need round-the-clock nursing. Residents have their own room or apartment, meals, housekeeping, and help with daily activities like bathing, dressing and medications.

In California these are licensed as Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly by the Department of Social Services. They range from large communities with hundreds of residents to small homes with six.

What we check on every option

  • License status and licensed capacity
  • Citations and complaints on the public record
  • Whether the community can meet the person's assessed care level
  • The actual monthly cost, not the "starting at" price
  • Whether the community pays Waypost Care

When families usually call us

If memory loss is part of the picture, memory care may be the better fit. If the person would do better in a small, quiet setting, look at board and care homes. We'll help you sort out which.
