JUDD Assisted Living sits in a quiet Pacoima neighborhood and has a long history of caring for seniors, keeping things simple and comfortable for folks who want some daily help and round-the-clock support from trained staff. The home is a licensed Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE #197610392) and fits just six residents at a time, which means people get more attention in either private or shared rooms. Meals come three times a day with snacks in between, and they listen to what each resident likes or needs to eat, including making changes for allergies or diabetes, which is helpful for people with special diets. Trained caregivers and medical professionals are always there-twenty-four hours every day-and their team helps with things like medication, bathing, dressing, getting around, and general housekeeping, plus activities like art workshops, book clubs, and even some light group fitness or cultural outings if residents want social time.
People living at JUDD Assisted Living can have mild or advanced dementia, diabetes, or need memory care, home healthcare, or hospice care, so there's a focus on comfort and safety, with special plans made for each person after an assessment. They've got WiFi, a modern living room, fireplaces, and comfortable bedrooms, and they don't allow pets, so it feels more like a tidy and quiet house than a big facility. While the ALW accreditation means they'll work with folks on the Assisted Living Waiver, anyone coming in can have short-term and respite care too, and the facility does its best to cater to all backgrounds, food preferences, and health needs, keeping an open mind to everyone, whether they need daily support or temporary help. With high standards for hiring-only 1 out of 25 caregivers make the cut and keep learning-they offer daily programs aimed at keeping minds active, using cognitive activities designed by experts, and regular check-ups happen onsite to keep a close eye on health. Entry fees start at $500, assisted living fees start at $4,000, and memory care starts at $5,000, all in a place small enough that everyone knows each other's names, with no long-term contracts needed. Respite care for families, hospital-to-home programs, and personalized care plans are available, and the house is run by people who've spent three decades working in elder care, making sure seniors have a peaceful routine and a safe place to live, no matter who they are or where they come from.
