View full state recordSt. Jude's Elder Care II is a 6-bed board and care in San Dimas, part of the St.
Jude's Homes network that specializes in dementia and Alzheimer's care. The home is personally run by the licensee — not a hired manager — with caregivers who stay current on best care practices.
They provide 24/7 care, medication management, and nutritional meal planning, positioning themselves as both professional and family-oriented.
Specialized in dementia and Alzheimer's care
St. Jude's explicitly highlights Alzheimer's and dementia care as a core competency. If your loved one has cognitive decline, this specialization means staff should be better trained to handle sundowning, wandering, and behavioral changes than a generalist facility.
Licensee personally runs the home
The facility is directly operated by the licensee, not managed by a hired administrator. Owner-operators tend to be more hands-on, more accountable, and more invested in the daily quality of care.
5 years of consistent operation
Licensed since October 2020, St. Jude's has maintained operations through a challenging period (including the pandemic years). Zero substantiated allegations during the review period is a clean track record.
Very limited online information
The website is minimal — a single page with broad claims but few specifics about daily routines, staffing ratios, room configurations, or what makes this home distinct. Visit in person and ask to observe a typical day.
San Dimas is in the far eastern San Gabriel Valley
Located roughly 30 miles east of downtown LA along the 210 freeway corridor. Accessible from the Inland Empire but a significant drive from central or west LA.
