How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from
The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly, 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.
An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Jan 21, 2026Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated
Allegation investigated: Staff are in violation of residents’ personal rights. Uncleared adults are supervising residents. Licensee does not ensure the Egress alarms are properly working.
On 1/21/2026 at approximately 9:15 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Angelica Segovia conducted an unannounced initial complaint visit to the facility. LPA was greeted by staff and stated the reason for their visit. The Administrator, Iveta Darabedyan arrived shortly after to assist with today’s visit. To investigate the allegation(s), at approximately 09:30 AM, LPA conducted a physical plant tour. By 10:00 AM, LPA requested relevant documentation. From 10:30 AM to 01:00 PM, LPA attempted interviews with five (5) residents (R1-R5), two (2) staff members (S1-S2) and conducted record review. (contiue to LIC 9099-C) Unsubstantiated Regarding the allegation: Staff are in violation of residents’ personal rights. It was alleged that staff have violated residents’ personal rights. To investigate the allegation, LPA attempted interviews with five (5) residents and two (2) staff members. LPA’s interview with three (3) of the five (5) residents denied staff locking them in their room/bed, leaving them unattended and taking away their personal belongings. LPA attempted to interview R4 and R5 but due to their inability to validate the questions being asked, LPA terminated the interview. LPA’s interview with both staff members revealed that a former staff member, who has been terminated but refuses to leave the premises, has caused issues among staff and residents. LPA’s interview with S1 revealed they are in the process with the courts to take care of the matter and have ensured that the residents will not be left alone with said ex-employee. During LPA’s physical plant tour, LPA observed S2 to be present and assisting the residents. LPA did not observe the residents to be left alone or unattended. Based on interviews and observations, there is not enough information to verify the allegation. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. Regarding the allegation: Uncleared adults are supervising residents. It was alleged that staff members were working without obtaining proper background clearance. To investigate the allegation, LPA conducted interviews with three (3) residents and two (2) staff members. LPA’s interview with all three (3) residents revealed there are two (2) main caregivers (S2 and S3). LPA’s interview with S1 revealed that a former staff member, who was mentioned by the Reporting Party (RP), is no longer employed by the facility. LPA’s interview with all three (3) residents and two (2) staff members declined that an additional staff member, mentioned by the RP, has not worked at the facility. LPA conducted record review of the following documentation: Personnel Report, Department of Social Services Guardian Background Check System and Licensing Information System (LIS). LPA’s record review confirmed that the six (6) staff members listed on all documents had background clearance and were associated to the facility, including S1, S2 and S3. Based on interviews, observations and record review, there is not enough information to verify the allegation. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. (continue to LIC 9099-C) Regarding the allegation: Licensee does not ensure the Egress alarms are properly working. It was alleged that the facility’s auditory alarms were not working. To investigate the allegation, LPA conducted a physical plant tour. LPA observed a total of two (2) auditory alarms. One located in the front entrance/exit and the other located on the sliding door exit leading towards the backyard. LPA observed both to be functional and in proper condition. LPA observed both auditory alarms to signal when the doors would open. LPA attempted to observe room 5, which has an exit door per the facility sketch, but LPA observed room 5 to be locked. Per S1, room 5 is being occupied by the ex-employee who will not leave the facility. Based on interviews and observations, there is not enough information to verify the allegation. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. No immediate health and safety issues observed during the day of the visit. Exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to the Administrator. Regarding the allegation: Staff do not follow proper medication management protocol. It was alleged that staff were administering medication to residents without a physician’s order. To investigate the allegation, LPA conducted interviews with three (3) residents and two (2) staff members. LPA’s interview with all three (3) residents revealed that staff have not given them unprescribed medication nor have they witnessed that to be done so. LPA’s interview with both staff members confirmed that all resident’s medications are centrally stored, locked and given as prescribed. However, during LPA’s physical plant, LPA observed R2’s medication to be accessible within the fridge and not locked. LPA observed medications to be stored in multiple areas of the refrigerator. LPA observed R2’s medication to be stored within a zip lock bag located where the perishable foods are kept. Additionally, LPA observed an unprescribed medication to be within a glass bottle wrapped in aluminon foil stored on the second shelf behind the food containers. In addition, LPA observed an unprescribed medication bottle to be located on the door of the refrigerator. LPA’s interview with S1 revealed that R2’s medication is to be locked in a container within the fridge and was unsure how their medication ended up outside of said container. Based on observation and interviews, LPA observed R2’s medication not locked and accessible to residents in care as well as unprescribed medication, therefore the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED, at this time. Citation issued, Please refer to 9099-D. No other immediate health and safety issues observed during the day of the visit. Exit interview was conducted, appeal rights and a copy of this report was provided to the Administrator.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Jan 21, 2026 · control 31-AS-20260114144418

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 All Star Care cost?
$4,525 a month to start — listed by the home on Seniorly · September 9, 2026.
The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly, 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.
Does All Star Care 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.
Who holds the license?
The license is held by All Star Care Inc., per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.
Can All Star Care keep a resident on hospice?
Hospice care is approved on this license, covering up to 6 residents, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.
