Do any homes in Whittier take residents with dementia or on hospice?

Does Medi-Cal pay for board and care in Whittier?

Medi-Cal can pay for care services in some homes through the Assisted Living Waiver or CalAIM Community Supports, but it does not pay for room and board. Most residents cover that part from income such as SSI. Our Medi-Cal checker shows where you stand in two minutes.
