Board and care homes are residences for seniors who require some care or help with the activities of daily living (ADLs or IADLs). They are smaller-scale assisted living facilities, usually having a resident capacity of no more than fourteen. Licensing requirements vary by state; some states require that board and care homes carry the same license as assisted living facilities.
