What to Consider About Assisted Living in Bellflower

The town of Bellflower sits beyond the city limits of Los Angeles and is part of the same county. The quiet city provides seniors with the opportunity to enjoy small-town living along with LA commodities. Bellflower features five residential care facilities for the elderly (RCEFs) and 56 nearby. Each facility needs to be licensed to operate and requires an annual renewal, which is overseen by the California Department of Social Services (CDSS).
