Talmadge Board and Care sits at 1312 Talmadge St, Los Angeles, CA 90027, tucked into a lively neighborhood filled with parks, cafes, pharmacies, hospitals, and theaters, so seniors don't have to go far to find something to do, and folks can get to places like Echo Park and Runyon Canyon easily, with good city transit close by for outings or errands, and three big hospitals nearby to cover health needs too. This board and care home houses up to six residents at a time, keeping things quieter and more personal, and offers both private rooms at $2,520 a month and shared rooms at $2,430, which runs lower than most facilities in LA County and across the state, so it fits well for those looking for a more affordable place while still getting needed support. In this home, staff help with things like daily hygiene, bathing, getting dressed, taking medicines, and getting around the house, and residents get three homemade meals each day, with vegetarian options and special diets available for folks managing conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes.
Talmadge Board and Care has a strong focus on memory care, with secure surroundings and programs for seniors with Alzheimer's or other dementias, including activities meant to support memory, prevent wandering, and ease confusion, plus recreation like music therapy, art, board games, pet therapy, fitness plans, and movie nights to keep folks as sharp and active as they can be. The home helps with high-acuity care too, offering support for those who need insulin shots, incontinence care, and two-person transfers, all depending on what each resident requires, and there's help for non-ambulatory seniors as well, so everyone gets attention that matches their health needs. The staff, known for their kind and helpful ways, plan social and physical activities, offer hairdresser visits, and make sure there's time for relaxation, with a garden, health room, sauna, and even a hot tub, plus a book room for anyone who likes to read or relax with a good story.
Short-term respite stays are also possible, letting families get a little break when someone needs extra care for just a while, and the place offers transportation support, helping with doctor visits, errands, or religious services when needed, though there may be an extra cost or scheduling to consider. The home offers a mix of community and privacy, with both indoor and outdoor common spaces, plus community parking for residents who still drive or have visitors. Seniors attending Talmadge Board and Care can join planned outings, get involved in music or art plans, and even attend spiritual services such as Islamic, Adventist, or Buddhist gatherings, so there's variety for different backgrounds and preferences.
