What are board and care homes?

A board and care home is a type of assisted living, I guess, or a type of residential care facility. Typically a small place, it might be any where from four to twelve beds. Usually it would be in a regular single family home, or a residential home. Typically in a neighborhood with other single family homes. There typically licensed by the state. I'd say they're good for people who like living in a house and who don't like living in an apartment. Who don't mind usually, you share a room with somebody. They can be relatively inexpensive and in my experience you get quite a bit of one-on-one care. You get home cooked food and they're pretty nice little places for the most part.
