Why we like it

Laurelgrove Board and Care is a 6-bed residential home in North Hollywood that emphasizes affordable, personalized care in a comfortable setting. The facility highlights its dedicated activities director, chef-prepared meals with dietary accommodations, and a structured program of exercise, arts, gardening, and group outings.

Licensed since early 2023, it participates in the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) program, making it accessible to Medi-Cal recipients.

Accepts Medi-Cal through the ALW program
Participates in the Assisted Living Waiver, which can significantly reduce costs for eligible residents. If you're navigating affordability, this opens up a quality small-home option that might otherwise be out of reach.
Full-time activities director on staff
Having a dedicated activities director — not just a caregiver who also plans activities — means programming is intentional. Exercise classes, arts and crafts, gardening, and group outings are part of a structured schedule, not improvised afterthoughts.
Personalized care plans developed with families
The facility emphasizes working closely with families to create individualized care plans. Each resident's needs and preferences are supposed to drive the care approach, not a one-size-fits-all routine.
Transparent about affordability goals
The website explicitly states they strive to keep pricing affordable and accessible. Combined with ALW participation, this suggests a genuine commitment to serving families across income levels, not just premium clients.
Only 3 years of operation
Licensed in January 2023, this is still a young home. Ask about staff retention, how many residents have come and gone, and what operational adjustments they've made since opening.
Licensed nurses mentioned but unclear staffing model
The website references licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants available 24/7, but doesn't specify how many are on-site at any given time. For a 6-bed home, clarify the actual staffing schedule during your visit.
