Why we like it

Yearling Board and Care is a 6-bed home in Cerritos, owned and managed by nurses with over 20 years of healthcare experience. The facility was purpose-built for residential care, sits on a quiet cul-de-sac within walking distance of a park, and features a spacious backyard for outdoor activities.

Staffing includes a 3:1 resident-to-caregiver ratio with awake night staff and nurse supervision.

  • Purpose-built for care, not a converted home

    The facility was specifically designed and constructed to accommodate care residents. This means thoughtful layout, proper accessibility, and spaces designed for the work that happens in a care home — a meaningful difference from homes that were residential first.

  • Nurse-owned and nurse-supervised

    Owned and managed by nurses with 20+ years of healthcare experience. Staff are directly supervised by nurses. Clinical expertise at every level of the operation means medical needs are understood, not just managed.

  • 3:1 ratio with awake night staff

    Three residents per caregiver with staff awake around the clock. This is a strong staffing model that ensures prompt attention day and night — particularly important for residents with conditions requiring overnight monitoring.

  • Handles complex medical conditions

    Accepts residents with Alzheimer's, dementia, hospice needs, diabetes care, stroke recovery, gastrostomy care (GT), and C-pap/Bi-pap use. This is a clinically capable home, not just a companion care setting.

  • Cerritos is in southeast LA County

    Pleasant suburban city, but roughly 25 miles from central LA. If family is on the Westside or in the Valley, regular visits require planning. However, the city itself is safe, clean, and has good services.

  • Four years of operation

    Licensed in 2021, Yearling has been operating for about 4 years. Enough to establish routines but still relatively young. The owners' 20+ years of nursing experience predates the facility itself.
