Why we like it

Be Well Senior Living operates three 6-bed residential care homes in the San Fernando Valley — two in Sherman Oaks and one in Tarzana. The homes are owner-operated by Rus and Elina, who maintain a hands-on presence across all locations.

Each home features 24-hour awake staff, home-cooked meals, medication management, and a 1:3 caregiver-to-resident ratio. The facilities participate in the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) program.

  • Owners personally run the operation

    Rus and Elina are named repeatedly in Google reviews as being actively present and responsive. In small care homes, hands-on ownership is one of the clearest signals of quality — decisions aren't being made by a remote corporate office.

  • 24-hour awake night staff

    The website explicitly states staff is awake at night, not just on-call or sleeping on premises. This is an important distinction for residents who may need assistance during nighttime hours.

  • Strong Google reviews from long-term families

    Multiple reviews reference residents who've lived at Be Well for 2-5+ years, with families praising the care quality, cleanliness, and communication. Long-term residents who stay and families who remain satisfied are a meaningful quality signal.

  • Accepts Medi-Cal through the ALW program

    Participates in the Assisted Living Waiver, which can meaningfully reduce costs for eligible residents. Not all small care homes participate in ALW, so this expands access for budget-conscious families.

  • Three locations under one brand

    Be Well runs homes on Beckford Avenue (Tarzana), Varna Avenue (Sherman Oaks), and Morrison Street (Sherman Oaks). Each home may have different caregivers and atmospheres. Visit the specific home where your loved one would live.

  • Limited details on structured activities

    The website mentions 'daily activities' but doesn't describe specific programming. Ask what a typical day looks like and how residents are kept engaged, especially those with cognitive needs.
