How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 14 small homes and similar homes within 3 miles publish, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices. In testing, the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 homes. This home’s own rate is not on file.
- 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.

Dec 23, 2024Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated
Allegation investigated: Covid-19 masking protocols are not being followed Residents were left unsupervised while in care
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Rose Ruppert made an unannounced complaint visit to deliver findings from a complaint received in our office on December 27, 2021. LPA received permission from Licensees to leave report with Staff #1, since they were offsite for Bingo. LPA stated the purpose of the visit to Licensees, via phone, and with Staff #1. LPA obtained and reviewed the following documents: Register of Facility Residents from January 5, 2022, LIC 500 Staff Roster, LIC 624 Unusual Incident Report, Resident LIC 601 Identification and Emergency Information, LIC 602A Physician’s Report for RCFE, LIC 603 Preplacement Appraisal Information, and LIC 603A Resident Appraisal. LPA also reviewed PIN 21-38-ASC-the Provider Information Notice on Updated Guidance for the Use of Face Masks, Surgical Masks, and Respirators Related to Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) dated August 19, 2021 and PIN 21-21-CCLD COVID-19 Safety Recommendations for the Upcoming Holiday Season dated October 29, 2021. Unsubstantiated (Continued from LIC 9099) During the investigation LPA interviewed three of three staff members, three of three witnesses from the incident on December 27, 2021. Regarding the allegation that masking protocols were not followed, three of three staff members stated they wore masks during that time and that residents were not mandated to wear them since they lived at the residence. All of the residents from the incident date no longer reside at the facility and were not available for interview. One witness stated masks were not being worn by staff. Another witness could not recall if masks were worn. LPA Rosie Quiroz conducted the ten day visit on January 6, 2022 and observed staff were wearing masks. Based on LPA interviews and observations, the allegation that COVID-19 masking protocols were not being followed is Unsubstantiated. LPA Ruppert conducted six of six interviews regarding residents being left unsupervised while in care. Three of three staff stated they were present at the facility. Two of the staff members reside at the facility and stated one was outside throwing away trash and the other staff member was transferring laundry. Two of two witnesses stated the staff members were not inside the facility and were in the backyard. Although staff members were not in close proximity to the residents, staff members remained on the facility property and were available to residents if needed. Therefore, based on interviews conducted and documents reviewed, the allegations Covid-19 masking protocols are not being followed and Residents were left unsupervised while in care are deemed to be Unsubstantiated. Although the above allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are Unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted with Staff #1 and a copy of this report and Technical Advisory LIC 9102-TA was provided to the facility.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Dec 23, 2024 · control 22-AS-20211227160124

“Typical” is the statewide median for licensed homes this size. It does not adjust for years licensed, and older licenses have had more visits and reports. 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.
What the state’s words mean
CDSS citation definitions (PDF) ↗ · CDSS complaint outcomes ↗
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.
Frequently asked questions
A citation does not make a home unsafe, and an empty file does not make a home good.

What does Care Ayesha cost?
$4,950 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,050–$6,100. This home’s own rate is not on file. Ask: “What is the all-in monthly rate, and what would push it higher?”
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 14 small homes and similar homes within 3 miles publish, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices. In testing, the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 homes. This home’s own rate is not on file.
Among 11 other homes of a similar licensed size in Orange that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,500 to $6,250 a month, and the middle figure is $4,500 (n = 11 other homes publishing a starting rate).
Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date in September 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. What Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver covers in a care home.
