How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living private room, seen September 9, 2026.

  • Only prices a home put out itself count: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price Seniorly says the home confirmed. Prices a listing site shows without saying where they came from are left out.
  • Nearby homes are the nearest of the same size that publish a rate, widening from 3 to 40 miles until at least 8 do. The estimate starts from what they charge, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices.
  • Room, care-level, second-person and move-in lines come from what California homes publish on listing sites. Memory care uses Covelight’s researched premium over assisted living.
  • Totals add each line’s figure and combine the lines’ ranges as separate charges, because a home is rarely at the top, or the bottom, of every line at once.
  • We tested this estimate on 1,546 California homes that publish their own starting rate. It was within 10% of the real rate for 3 in 10 homes and within 25% for 7 in 10; the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 (September 12, 2026).
  • It cannot see this home’s specials, how it assesses care, or which rooms are open.
Avoid surprises on the billWhat changes the price, and what to ask
  • The care level

    Some homes charge one all-inclusive rate. Others add levels or points as needs grow. Ask how the level is set, who decides, and what the next level costs.

  • What is billed separately

    Medication management, incontinence supplies, transportation and a second person in the room are often extra. Ask for the list in writing.

  • Move-in costs

    A one-time move-in fee or deposit is common. Ask what it covers and whether any of it comes back if the stay is short.

  • Increases

    California requires at least 90 days’ written notice, with reasons, before a rate rises (Health & Safety Code §1569.655). A change in the resident’s care level is the section’s own exception and can be billed sooner.

Ask for the price

An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Sep 19, 2023Complaint investigation reportSubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Staff do not distribute residents' medications as prescribed

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Rosaura Valenzuela conducted an unannounced subsequent visit to the facility to continue the investigation and to deliver the final findings of the above noted allegation. LPA met with Michael Hsu, Licensee. The purpose of the visit was explained. During the investigation, on 1/06/2023 between 11:34pm and 12:25pm, LPA Laqueena Lacy spoke with the Administrator and other facility staff. At 12:05pm, LPA requested facility records. At 1:48pm, LPA Lacy spoke with two (02) out of five (05) residents. Three (03) residents were unable to respond to the questions. Prior to this visit, Licensing representatives reviewed the documents previously received from the Administrator. The documents included but not limited to residents' physician reports, pre-placement appraisals, needs and services plan, medication administration records, staff training records, and etc. It was reported that on 12/28/2022 and 12/29/2022, night shift staff did not distribute night medications to Continue on 9099-C Substantiated resident #2 (R2) and resident #3 (R3). Interviews of the staff present at the facility revealed that they dispense the medication as per physician orders. LPA Lacy made a few attempts to contact the night shift caregivers, but to no avail. A review of the medical administration records (MAR) conducted on 9/05/2023 at 11:30am revealed, that on 12/27/22 and 12/29/2022, R2's 10pm medications were not dispensed to the resident. R3 did not receive their 10pm medication on 12/29/2022. Based on review of residents' MAR, there is sufficient information to conclude that staff did not distribute residents' medications as prescribed. Therefore, the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED at this time. Under Title 22, division 6, chapter 8 the following citation was issued and recorded on the LIC 9099D. Exit interview conducted and a copy of the report was issued. criminal record clearance and/ or association. Interviews revealed that the Administrator does not allow staff to work in the facility without approved criminal record clearance and association to the facility. Upon review of the daily staff schedule and staff records, it appears that S1 has been working for the facility since 9/08/2022. A review of the Licensing Information System (LIS), shows that S1 and S2 both have fingerprint clearance and association to the facility. All staff working in the facility during this investigation had criminal record clearance. Based on interviews and record review there is not sufficient information to verify the allegation. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. It was reported that staff do not manage resident's behavior. Resident #1 (R1) has behaviors of scratching, spitting, and fighting. Reporting party states that the licensee does not manage R1's behaviors. Staff are told to "leave her alone." Staff interviews revealed that R2 does not have behaviors. Due to their health condition, at times R2 is confused and agitated. However, caregivers are able to redirect R1. No staff complained about R1's behavior. A review of R1's facility records verified the information revealed from staff. No other information or records were available to support the allegation. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. It was alleged that Staff #2 (S2) are distributing medication to residents however, S2 has not had medication training. During this investigation the Administrator stated that all staff working at the facility have received medication training. Staff also confirmed that they received medication training. On 9/07/2023 at 12:30pm, the Administrator e-mailed copies of staff training records, confirming the information revealed from the interviews. Based on interviews and records review, there is no pertinent information to verify the allegation. Thus, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. It was reported that the toilet in the bathroom, which is designated for the residents, has been "stopped up" for two weeks. Reporting party states that staff have to use a plunger after each toilet use. Staff indicated that the bathroom toilet is functioning properly. Residents interviewed during the investigation did not address any concerns regarding facility toilets. At the time of licensing visits, bathrooms were inspected, and the toilets were functional and in good repair.

The median is across the 6,916 licensed small board-and-care homes (6 or fewer beds) in the state record. The figures compared are the state’s totals, not the documents.

An “unsubstantiated” complaint is not a finding of wrongdoing — it means the state investigated and could not confirm the allegation. Outcome words are the state’s own; we never grade, score, or color a record, and we publish no reviews — the state’s dated documents stand in their place.

What does Rose Valley Altadena II cost?

$8,000 a month to start — listed by the home on Seniorly · September 9, 2026.

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living private room, seen September 9, 2026.

Among 231 other homes of a similar licensed size across Los Angeles County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,000 to $6,077 a month, and the middle figure is $5,000 (n = 231 other homes publishing a starting rate).

Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date between September and October 2026 — not an average of ours, and not a survey. Similar size means small and mid-size homes counted together, and large communities counted on their own, because they are different markets.

A home outside the band is not overcharging or underpricing: a starting rate covers different things in different homes, which is the first thing to ask about.

The price is made in the phone call. Nothing here is a quote, an offer or a discount.

A starting rate is the room and the base care. California homes commonly bill care levels, medication management, supplies, transport and a second person in the room as extras. Many also charge a one-time fee at move-in. Ask for that list in writing before anything is signed.

Only prices a home put out itself count here: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price a listing site says the home confirmed. Prices a site shows without saying where they came from are left out.

Does Rose Valley Altadena II take Medi-Cal?

On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this home is not on the DHCS participation list dated October 1, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
