How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living, 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.

Dec 29, 2021Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Resident sustained multiple pressure injuries while in care Facility staff could not provide resident's authorized representative with the resident's medical information Facility staff did not notify resident's authorized representative of a change in the resident's condition

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Brian Balisi conducted an unannounced subsequent complaint visit to deliver final investigation finding regarding above allegations. During today’s visit LPA met with caregiver Armine Arakelyan and explained reason for visit. LPA spoke with Administrator Ani Hasmik over the phone who stated that Armine can sign the report. Following is a summary of the investigation: On 06/09/2020, the Department received a complaint alleging that Resident #1 (R1) developed multiple pressure injuries while in the facility's care due to staff neglect/lack of supervision. On 06/11/2020, LPA Chochian conducted the initial complaint visit. Due to the situation surrounding the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), and to implement mitigation measures, the initial complaint investigation was conducted virtually with the use of "Face Time" with Administrator Ani Mkirtchyan. Unsubstantiated Continued from 9099 During the virtual visit, between the hours from 3:30p.m. to 5p.m., LPA Chochian conducted a virtual physical plant tour with administrator and discussed allegation. The complaint was referred to Community Care Licensing (CCL) Investigations Branch (IB) and assigned to Special Investigator Peter Zertuche. On 08/26/2020, Special Investigator Zertuche conducted an interview with the reporting party at approximately 11:30a.m.; interview with R1’s responsible person at approximately 12:30p.m.; interview with facility staff on 09/17/2020 at approximately 11a.m. and 11:30a.m. and on 9/22/2020 at approximately 9a.m. Additionally, Special Investigator Zertuche, conducted an interview on 09/23/2020 with ABC Hospice visiting nurse. During investigation, Investigator Zertuche obtained and reviewed hospital medical records, hospice records, and R1’s facility records. Information gathered revealed that R1 was admitted to the facility on 05/18/2020. ABC Hospice was initiated the same day due to R1’s declining health status. Staff indicated they regularly repositioned R1 every two (2) hours as instructed by hospice nurse. ABC Hospice agency staff interview stated the focus was on R1 declining health due to Alzheimer’s disease, not wound care as R1 did not have any wounds upon start of hospice care. Throughout the stay at the facility, R1 received hospice service twice a week from 05/18/2020 (start of care) – 06/05/2020 (end of care). Hospice records indicate R1 received care services from hospice staff on 05/18/2020; 05/20/2020; 05/21/2020; 05/24/2020; 05/27/2020; 05/30/2020; 06/01/2020; 06/03/2020; and 06/04/2020. Hospice records indicate, wounds did not form until 6/1/2020 – a blister/redness on coccyx area observed on 06/01/2020 and a deep tissue injury to the right foot/heel on 06/03/2020. Facility staff were instructed to continue monitoring R1 and reposition every 2 hours. Hospice notes further reviewed revealed that R1’s family was regularly kept informed by visiting hospice staff of R1’s declining health condition and on 06/05/2020 family decided to have R1 transfer to the hospital. According to hospice staff there was no concerns regarding the care provided by the facility staff took immediate action when they found out about the injuries. Continued from 9099-C Regarding allegation “Facility staff could not provide resident's authorized representative with the resident's medical information”, it was reported that when R1’s family asked staff about what medications R1 is on and staff did not know. Interview was conducted with facility staff during the initial visit on 06/11/2020 by Licensing Program Analyst Zabel Chochian. Interview with staff revealed that the staff that was asked about R1’s medications at the time did not know because they do not handle medications. Regarding allegation “Facility staff did not notify resident's authorized representative of a change in the resident's condition”. It was reported that the facility did not advise R1’s family that the resident was declining or that the resident's mental status became altered. Interview with facility staff and hospice staff revealed that R1’s family was regularly informed of R1’s declining health status. Several attempts were made to contact R1’s family on 6/11/2020; 08/31/2020 and 09/15/2020; no return call was received. Based on the above information, there is not enough evidence to support the allegations. Therefore, the allegations are deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.

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 Aurora Home for Seniors cost?

$3,000 a month to start — listed by the home on Seniorly · September 9, 2026.

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living, 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 $6,176 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.
