Overview of The British Home in California

The British Home in California offers assisted living, independent living, and respite care in Sierra Madre, California. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and taking medication, while independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Respite care is available for a short stay when a resident’s usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.

Having assisted living and independent living in one community means a resident whose needs grow can move to another care level without leaving the community or starting over socially. The 41 bed community is smaller in scale. That may suit someone who prefers a setting where staff and residents can get to know each other.

Outdoor grounds include lawns, walking paths, benches, a rose garden, and a covered pavilion, giving residents places to walk, sit outdoors, or attend gatherings. An on site salon provides a personal care service within the community, while activities, celebrations, and Ingathering offer organized events. Pets are allowed, so residents may keep a pet at the community. A Walk Score of 36 places the area in the car dependent band, meaning most errands require a car or a ride; a resident who no longer drives would need transportation for those trips. Rosario Munoz serves as the administrator.
