Wrightwood Castle is licensed by the California Department of Social Services as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE #365530560) — the same license that covers assisted living communities and board and care homes across Los Angeles County. Families searching for assisted living, a board and care home, or a small RCFE near Claremont are looking at the same category of care; the difference here is six residents instead of sixty.
Licensing & terminology
Looking for an RCFE in Claremont? Here is what that means.
Licensed RCFE, not an unlicensed home
RCFE stands for Residential Care Facility for the Elderly — the license the California Department of Social Services issues to homes that provide non-medical care, supervision and personal assistance to adults 60 and over. Wrightwood Castle holds RCFE #365530560, and you can look that number up yourself on the state's public facility search before you ever come see us. If a home near Claremont cannot give you a license number, it is not a licensed RCFE.
How to verify an RCFE license →Assisted living, board and care — same license
Families in Claremont search for assisted living, board and care, senior care homes and RCFEs as if they were four different things. Under California law they all fall under the same RCFE license. The real difference is size: large assisted living communities run 60 to 200 apartments, while an assisted living board and care home like ours is licensed for six residents in an ordinary house.
Compare the level of care →A six-bed RCFE serving Los Angeles County
We are a small licensed RCFE in Wrightwood, about 1 hour from Claremont, with two caregivers on the floor for six residents. That ratio is why families across Los Angeles County choose a board and care home over a large community — the same regulated care, delivered by people who know your parent's name, routine and appetite.
