Bedridden careNot on file — ask the home

“Not on file” is not a no — approvals can be bed- or room-specific, so confirm current scope with the home on a tour. Where a number is shown it is the state’s own wording for how many residents the approval covers, not how many places are open today; where none is shown, the record simply does not state one.

Specific medical needs — insulin, oxygen, a catheter, an ostomy — aren’t in the state license record; ask the home directly. A feeding tube, tracheostomy, or advanced wound care usually needs skilled nursing →

“RCFE / Dementia” is the state’s designation for a home with an approved Dementia Care Plan of Operation — it’s recorded separately from the comments above, which is why the memory-care approval may not appear in that text.

Since 2023, the state has visited this home 11 times and filed 8 documents. The most recent is a facility evaluation report, dated May 27, 2026.

Sep 7, 2023Complaint investigation reportUnfounded

Allegation investigated: Staff spoke inappropriately to resident Staff dispensed medication to a resident without a prescription

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) L. Xiong conducted the complaint investigation visit to the facility. I met with Administrator Sasheila Grice and informed her the purpose of the visit. During the course of this investigation LPA reviewed facility files and interview staff relevant to the complaint investigation. It was determined that the above allegation: Staff spoke inappropriately to resident, and Staff dispensed medication to a resident without a prescription are UNFOUNDED. The evidence from the investigation indicated the S1 didn't speak to resident R1 inappropiately and didn't give R1 any medication as allegated. This agency has investigated the complaint alleging (Staff spoke inappropriately to resident, and Staff dispensed medication to a resident without a prescription). We have found that the complaint was unfounded, therefore we have dismissed the complaint. Unfoundedthe state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Sep 7, 2023 · control 24-AS-20230530095520

Is Vela Suites licensed?

Yes — Vela Suites is a licensed residential care home for the elderly (RCFE) in Fresno (Fresno County): California license #107209302, shown as licensed in the CDSS state record checked August 2, 2026, licensed for 6 residents. State records list 8 inspection and complaint documents since 2023; the most recent, a facility evaluation report dated May 27, 2026, appears in the inspection record on this page.

Can Vela Suites care for dementia, hospice, bedridden, or non-ambulatory residents?

From the CDSS license record, checked August 2, 2026.

The CDSS license record checked August 2, 2026 lists Vela Suites with clearances for wheelchair / non-ambulatory, dementia / memory care, and hospice care; it does not list bedridden. A clearance that is not on file is not a “no” — it may simply be unrecorded, so if your family needs one of these, ask the home directly and confirm its current scope on a tour.

How much does Vela Suites cost?

California's public licensing record does not include Vela Suites's monthly price, so we never show or estimate one for a specific home. As county-level context only, assisted living in Fresno County typically runs $3,500–$5,500/mo and small board-and-care homes $3,000–$5,000/mo (market research compiled June 2026 — ranges, not quotes; California's 2026 SSI/SSP board-and-care payment standard is $1,626.07/month, of which $1,444.07 is the room-and-board portion paid to the home). Ask the home for its own rate sheet and what the base rate includes — or use the cost section at the top of this page.

Does Vela Suites accept Medi-Cal or the Assisted Living Waiver?

Yes — Medi-Cal can help pay for care at Vela Suites through California's Assisted Living Waiver (ALW): the home appears on the Department of Health Care Services participant list checked August 9, 2026. The waiver pays for assisted-living care services — not room and board — for eligible Medi-Cal members, and each home takes a limited number of waiver residents, so ask the home about a current ALW opening.

What the state has logged

California has logged 11 state visits for this home as of August 2, 2026. These are the home's own counts, straight from that record — shown beside the statewide median for small board-and-care homes (6 or fewer beds), computed across all 5,773 licensed homes of that size, because larger and longer-licensed homes naturally accumulate more visits and reports. They are facts, not a grade — a citation may be minor and since corrected, and an “unsubstantiated” complaint is not a finding of wrongdoing. No substantiated complaints are on file.

What isn't in the state record

Resident reviews, the exact monthly price, and the languages staff speak aren't part of California's public licensing record, so we don't show them here. Ask the home directly — the tour questions above are a good start.
