Everett Board and Care Inc is a newly licensed 6-bed facility in Northridge that completed a Change in Ownership process in 2024-2025. The pre-licensing inspection in April 2025 confirmed smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, and multiple fire extinguishers were functional and properly placed throughout the facility.

A dementia plan of operation has been submitted and a hospice waiver requested. No complaints have been filed or investigated.
Everett Board and Care, operating under the Karen's Board & Care brand, is a 6-bed residential care facility in Northridge. Part of a three-location operation spanning Northridge, Encino, and Lake Balboa, the organization has been in business since 1997 — nearly three decades of experience in small-home senior care.
The facility is run by a registered nurse administrator and offers Alzheimer's and hospice care, home-cooked meals, and a secure environment in a quiet residential neighborhood.
Excellent safety record
The FYI Safety Score™ is 9.9 out of 10 (Excellent), placing this home among the top-rated facilities in LA based on state inspection data. Zero citations and no substantiated complaints.
Nearly 30 years of operating experience
The Karen's Board & Care organization has been serving seniors since 1997. That's rare longevity in this industry and suggests stable management, established routines, and deep expertise in small-home care.
Registered nurse on the administrative team
One of the administrators is a registered nurse (BSN), bringing clinical knowledge to daily care decisions. In a 6-bed home, having nursing expertise in-house rather than on-call is a meaningful advantage.
Alzheimer's and hospice care available
The facility explicitly accepts residents with Alzheimer's disease and provides hospice support. Many small board and cares can't handle these higher-acuity needs, making this a broader option for families planning ahead.
New license despite established brand
While Karen's Board & Care has operated since 1997, this specific license (Everett Board and Care Inc) was issued in May 2025. Ask whether this is a new location, ownership restructure, or relicensing of an existing home.
Three locations means ask which one you're touring
