A Community Rooted in Armenian Heritage
More Than a Single Building
Ararat Home is not a stand-alone home but part of a 10.5-acre campus in Mission Hills. The assisted living residence sits on the southwest section of that campus, alongside other services, which gives residents a full community rather than a single house.
An Armenian-American Home
The community was built to serve the Armenian-American community and reflects that heritage throughout daily life. That shows up in small but meaningful ways, including a library stocked with books, magazines, and newspapers in both English and Armenian.
Assisted Living at Mission Hills
Rooms in a Modern Residence
Assisted living residents live in a modern, three-story building, with studio and one-bedroom floor plans available. Each room has its own bathroom, heating and air-conditioning, intercom, telephone service, furnishings, and space for personal belongings.
Shared Spaces and Services
The residence includes two recreation rooms and a living room, plus the bilingual library and reading room. There is also a gift shop near the main lobby and a beauty parlor offering weekly hairdressing and manicure services, with meals served in two bright dining rooms.
Dining With a Cultural Touch
The dietary team prepares continental cuisine along with Armenian favorites such as herisseh, dolma, kufte, and beoreg, plus homemade soups and pastries. For many residents, familiar food is part of what makes the community feel like home rather than an institution.
What's Included and Everyday Care
Assisted Living Support
As an RCFE, the community provides help with the daily tasks of living within a supportive, supervised setting. Monthly rent covers utilities except a personal telephone, along with free Wi-Fi, weekly housekeeping, and laundry service.
Higher Levels of Care on Campus
Because Ararat Home is a continuing care community, more intensive care is available on the same Mission Hills campus, where a separate skilled nursing facility offers short-term rehabilitation and long-term care. That continuum can matter to families who want a resident to be able to move up in care without leaving the campus.
Doctor Visits at Home
Routine medical care is handled through a resident's own doctors and visiting providers rather than on-site hospital care. For residents who find travel tiring, families can also find a physician who makes house calls, so a check-up does not always require a trip out.
Licensing and Oversight
Ararat Home of Los Angeles is licensed by the California Department of Social Services as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly and operates under the state's residential care regulations covering staffing, safety, and accessibility. Its current license status and inspection history are on record with the state and can be reviewed directly before a visit.
