Assisted living facilities in Oakland charge an estimated $6,319 per month for housing and care.
The majority of assisted living facilities in Oakland are private pay only, and there aren’t many opportunities for financial assistance unless you’re living in a small selection of communities. Residents in these designated RCFEs can benefit from the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) if they have full-scope Medi-Cal eligibility and meet other requirements. The ALW only allows reimbursement for services and does not pay for room and board.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in California page.
