Review of Grace Care Home
We feel good about Grace Care Home. My wife loves the food served to her, and the staff members are very gracious people. There are two residents in a room, which is OK. I'm satisfied with the price.

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.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:
