Testimonials

Trusted by families & facility owners

Real experiences from the people who use RCFE Connect — families finding care close to home, and operators filling beds without paying a placement agent.

“First I was hesitated to sign up with rcfeconnect.com, but I tried it. Then I got 1 patient, the family resides 5 miles away from my facility. It's good to have a Zillow type of website exclusive for RCFE. I save huge money paying placement agents!”

Billy F.

Facility Owner

“I saw the post in FB about rcfeconnect, it just so happen that we are looking a place for my mom and I was amazed that there is one close to my residence. I encourage you to try this website. This is really cool, you can get to choose facilities and contact them directly.”

Questions & answers

Frequently asked questions

The things families, caregivers, and operators ask us most — answered before you have to pick up the phone.

What is an RCFE?

An RCFE (Residential Care Facility for the Elderly) is a state-licensed, non-medical care home in California that provides room, board, and personal-care services such as help with bathing, dressing, medication management, and meals for older adults.

How much does it cost to use RCFE Connect?

RCFE Connect is completely free for families searching for care and for caregivers looking for work. There are no fees to search, compare, tour, or connect with a facility.

Are the facilities on RCFE Connect licensed?

Yes. We focus on licensed residential care facilities and verify listings so families can search with confidence. Each listing shows the facility's details, care types, and availability.

What is a board and care home?

A board and care home is a small licensed RCFE — usually six residents or fewer — run out of an ordinary house rather than an apartment-style community. Because the household is small, staff know every resident and daily life feels closer to a family home, with meals, personal care, and medication help included. Larger communities offer more amenities and organized activities; board and care trades those for quiet and closer attention. You can filter by Board and Care on our facilities page.

Can I apply to caregiver jobs through RCFE Connect?

Absolutely. Caregivers can browse verified facility listings, apply to open positions that match their skills, and set their own rates, schedule, and availability — all in one place.
