Common Questions
RCFE & Board and Care Home FAQs
Answers to what families in San Diego most often ask about residential care and assisted living.
What is an RCFE (Residential Care Facility for the Elderly)?
An RCFE is a state-licensed home that provides non-medical care, supervision, and assistance with daily living for seniors who can no longer live safely on their own. In California, RCFEs are also commonly called board and care homes or assisted living homes.
What's the difference between a board and care home and assisted living?
Both terms describe RCFE-licensed senior care in California. Board and care homes, like New Beginning Living Inc, are typically smaller residential properties (often six beds or fewer) offering more personalized, family-style care, while "assisted living" often refers to larger communities with many more residents and a more institutional feel.
How do I know when it's time for residential care for a parent?
Common signs include difficulty with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, or managing medications; increased falls or safety concerns at home; social isolation; or caregiver burnout among family members. We're happy to talk through your specific situation and help you decide what's right for your family.
What are the admission requirements at New Beginning Living Inc?
Residents are generally 60 or older, do not require 24-hour skilled nursing care, and can be safely cared for in a non-medical, residential setting. See our full admission requirements above, or call us to discuss your loved one's specific needs.
