Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Gardena

Seniors living RCFs in the Gardena area can apply for financial assistance via California's Assisted Living Waiver. This waiver operates under the state Medi-Cal program and covers the cost of assisted living for eligible seniors, as well as providing other healthcare services. 

Supplemental Security Income recipients who meet eligibility requirements may also apply for California's Optional state supplement, which exists to help seniors cover the cost of room and board in long-term care facilities. 

California doesn't allow family supplementation.

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in California page.
