How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 8 small homes within 5 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.

Ask for the price

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

Sep 18, 2025Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Facility staff hit resident with an object Facility staff restricted resident from having visitors

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Vincent Moleski arrived unannounced to deliver findings on this complaint investigation. LPA Moleski spoke with facility administrator Mohamed Massaquoi over the phone and explained the purpose of the visit. LPA Moleski reviewed an incident report from this facility dated 12/24/23. According to this incident report, three individuals arrived at this facility unannounced on that date around 5:30 p.m. in an attempt to visit a resident (R1). The two staff members on duty (S1-S2) did not recognize the individuals, who described themselves as R1's family members, according to the report. The staff members explained that they needed to speak with R1 to ask if R1 knew the visitors, but one of the visitors jammed their foot in the door in an attempt to enter the facility, according to the report. Staff members called the facility administrator, Mohamed Massaquoi, who called R1's responsible party (R1's RP). R1's RP said that the visitors were family members of R1, but they had been "causing trouble," according to the incident report. [continued on 9099-C] Unsubstantiated R1's RP asked Massaquoi to prevent these individuals from visiting, but Massaquoi explained that he could not restrict R1's visitation unless R1 did not recognize the visitors, according to the report. Massaquoi went to the facility to address the situation, and when he arrived, one of the visitors informed him that they had called the police, per the report. A responding officer spoke with R1, and R1 permitted only two of the visitors to enter, but did not want to see the third, according to the report. The officer remained to monitor the visitation, according to the report. LPA Moleski reviewed a police report, dated 7/15/24, regarding this incident. According to the report, a prior call had been made on 12/24/23. LPA Moleski reviewed a call log regarding this incident. According to the call log, multiple visitors were allowed into the facility, but complained that they were "kicked out." The facility owner (presumably Mohammed Massaquoi) also called officers and said that R1 did not want to see the visitors. According to the call log, one of these visitors was making threats that they might "get physical." Officers advised the person not to make threats. The call was cleared by a "mediated visit," according to the call log. The follow up report dated 7/15/24 included a statement made by one of the visitors. In the statement, the visitor said that "the officers helped facilitate a visit" between R1 and the other visitors "but I was told [R1] did not want to see me." In interviews, Massaquoi and S2 said that R1's RP had requested to restrict R1's visitation, but they explained to R1's RP that the facility was required to permit visitation with whomever R1 wanted to see. Both Massaquoi and S2, who arrived at the facility on 12/24/23 after the staff members on duty (S1 & S4) called, said that R1's two family members were allowed to visit, but the third individual who R1 had requested not to see remained outside. In an interview, S1 largely corroborated the narrative of the incident report as described above. S1 said that on 12/24/23, R1 did not want to see some of the visitors, but others did come inside and visit R1. In an interview, an ombudsperson who responded to visitation concerns said that the resident themselves had chosen to restrict who visited them. [continued on 9099-C] The complainant alleged that R1 was struck by a staff member in January 2024, but did not share any specific information such as a date of occurrence or the names of any individuals involved. LPA Moleski requested police reports regarding this incident from the local police department, but the only report on file was made by a CDSS employee in December 2024, immediately after this complaint was filed with CDSS. LPA Moleski interviewed Massaquoi and three staff members (S1-S3) who were working at this facility around that time. None of these individuals reported any incidents of physical abuse as alleged by the complainant. R1's RP voiced no concerns regarding physical abuse at this facility in an interview. LPA Moleski interviewed all current residents of this facility (R4-R7). None of the residents reported any concerns with visitation and none reported any experiences of physical abuse in this facility. LPA Moleski interviewed R5's responsible party. R5's RP voiced no concerns regarding visitation or physical abuse. LPA Moleski interviewed responsible parties of two former residents (R2's RP & R3'S RP). Neither party expressed significant concerns regarding restricted visitation or physical abuse at this facility. The department has determined the following as it relates to the allegations that facility staff hit a resident with an object and that facility staff restricted a resident from having visitors: The above allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED, which means that although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred. No deficiencies were cited during this visit. An exit interview was held with Mohamed Massaquoi. Mohamed Massaquoi said staff member Niomi Massaquoi could sign this report in his absence. A copy of this report was left with staff member Niomi Massaquoi.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Sep 18, 2025 · control 27-AS-20241219105348

Allegation investigated: Staff did not ensure that the resident was appropriately dressed. Staff did not ensure that the resident attended scheduled appointment on time. Staff did not ensure that the resident was picked up in a timely manner from scheduled appointment.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Victoria Brown arrived unannounced on 11/14/24 at 8:30am and met with Mohamed Massaquoi and stated the purpose of the visit. LPA conducted interviews of resident #1 (R1) and Home Health and Staff #1 (S1-S3) during this visit. LPA obtained a copy of text messages, discharge documents, and email and Home Health notes during this visit. Regarding allegation, "Staff did not ensure that the resident was appropriately dressed", LPA obtained information through interviews of R1, S1-S3, Home Health, and Administrator that R1 went to 2 doctor appointments with compression socks and no shoes. All concur that due to swelling, R1 refused to wear shoes in and about the home and again to both appointments. Home Health assisted with trimming the shoes to allow some foot coverage. R1 is pleased with the trimmed shoes, however, Home Health recommended shoes that can be adjusted. LPA observed that the shoes were ordered and are due to arrive today. Unsubstantiated Regarding allegation, "Staff did not ensure that the resident attended scheduled appointment on time", LPA obtained information that R1 is taken to appointments by a transportation company. Based on interviews R1 was always picked up at least 30 minutes prior to the scheduled appointment. The facility was unaware that R1 was late to the appointment. R1 has a Power of Attorney (POA) but during Dr Office visits R1 is responsible for self since admittance. The Physician Report dated 5/17/24 indicates R1 is able to leave the facility unassisted and there is no diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment nor Dementia. Regarding allegation, "Staff did not ensure that the resident was picked up in a timely manner from scheduled appointment, LPA obtained information through interviews that the facility staff was unaware that R1 was picked up late from a doctor appointment by the transportation company. The Administrator indicated that contact with the POA regarding options to ensure R1 is not late for or picked up late from appointments. Based on a review of discharge documents, text messages, email and consistency of interviews, all three allegations are deemed Unsubstantiated. The investigation revealed the preponderance of evidence standards has not been met; therefore, the above allegation(s) is found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint is Unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. Per California Code of Regulations (CCRs) - Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, no deficiencies cited.

“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.

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 Diamond Oak Guest Home cost?

$4,250 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,500–$5,250. 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 8 small homes within 5 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 6 other homes of a similar licensed size in Elk Grove that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $5,000 a month, and the middle figure is $3,750 (n = 6 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 Diamond Oak Guest Home 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 The Woods Care Home Inc., per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Methodist Hospital of Sacramento is 3.7 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

Can Diamond Oak Guest Home keep a resident on hospice?

Hospice care is approved on this license, covering up to 2 residents, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.
