How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from
The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for memory care shared bedroom, seen September 9, 2026. We don’t have this home’s dementia-care disclosure. California requires a home that advertises dementia care to describe that care in writing when you ask.
- 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).

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.

LPA was greeted by Administrator Calais Anguiano, identified herself, and explained the purpose of the visit. The incident report indicated that Resident 1 (R1) sustained an unwitnessed fall at the facility on August 12, 2026, resulting in fractured ribs. Upon review of the incident report, CCL identified a potential concern regarding whether timely medical attention was sought following the incident. The LIC 624 indicated that R1 sustained an unwitnessed fall on August 12, 2026. An X-ray was ordered on August 15, 2026. The imaging results were received on August 16, 2026, and showed fractures to the seventh and eighth ribs. R1 was subsequently transported to a hospital by emergency medical personnel. R1 was not present at the facility during today's visit. During today's visit, LPA conducted a health and safety check, observed residents in care, reviewed facility records, and interviewed staff. During interviews, staff reported that the facility conducted an internal investigation, which resulted in the suspension of a staff member for not following established protocol for conducting appropriate and thorough assessments following a resident fall and for not seeking timely medical attention to meet R1's needs.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Arian Golbakhsh conducted an unannounced, required Annual Inspection. The facility file and personnel report was reviewed prior to the visit. LPA was welcomed by, identified themselves to, and discussed the purpose of the visit to Receptionist Jeff Keast and Executive Director Calais Anguiano. The facility's license shows a maximum capacity of one-hundred-and-twenty-two (122) non-ambulatory residents. Additionally, the facility is approved for delayed egress, a secured perimeter, and a hospice waiver for twenty-five (25). During today’s inspection there were sixty-nine (69) residents in care. LPA, Executive Director Anguiano, and Director of Plant Operations (DPO) Josue Lopez toured the interior and exterior of the facility and inspected a sample of occupied and unoccupied resident rooms. The facility was clean, sanitary, and in good repair. Pathways were free of obstruction and slip hazards. Client bedrooms contained the required furnishings. Doors, windows, screens, toilets, and showers were in working order. Extra linens and hygiene supplies were present, as well as Personal Protective Equipment. When testing the hot water at different sinks throughout the facility, water temperature consistently measured at around 97F.

Per Executive Director Anguiano, no firearms or ammunition are kept at the facility. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, emergency lighting, and facility telephone were all in working order. Fire extinguishers were serviced within the last 12 months, dated for November 2025. Last staff fire frill was conducted on 1/24/26, for the topic of trash can fire.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Nacole Patterson conducted an unannounced Case Management Visit. LPA was greeted by and met with Executive Director Calais Anguiano, to discuss the purpose of the visit. Today's visit is in response to the facility's self report regarding Staff 1 (S1) utilizing an unauthorized self-release restraint on Resident 1 (R1) during incontinence care. Staff interviews, written staff statements, and facility documentation of the incident revealed that the facility had a "no restraint" policy, which was trained to all employees, including S1. The facility conducted an internal investigation regarding the incident; S1 informed that the intent of the restraint was to keep R1 from scratching themselves due to agitation while being provided care. Upon observation of the restraint by other staff, the situation was elevated to management and S1 was suspended immediately and subsequently terminated. An immediate medical examination was conducted for R1 by a licensed medical professional where no signs of trauma or injury were assessed for R1. All required parties were informed of the incident per reporting requirements. The investigation showed that the situation was elevated per the facility's chain of command and management took immediate action to rectify the incident. The investigation additionally revealed that the facility provided sufficient training to staff regarding appropriate postural support use and the prohibition of unauthorized restraints. S1 admitted knowing the facility's policy against use of restraints. LPA conducted a health and safety check for R1 at the facility; no health or safety issues were identified. A deficiency was cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22 (refer to the attached LIC 809-D). A Plan of Correction was jointly developed with the Executive Director. An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Calais Anguiano, to whom a copy of this report and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22) were provided.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Nacole Patterson conducted an unannounced Case Management Visit. LPA was greeted by and met with Executive Director Calais Anguiano to discuss the purpose of the visit. Today's visit is in response to the self report of an allegation of physical abuse by a staff member toward a resident. The staff member was accused of striking a resident on the arm and preventing them from leaving their room. The facility corporate human resources department conducted an internal investigation, which was deemed unsubstantiated due to lack of evidence that the event occurred. The investigation included written statements from staff members who were present during the time of the allegation and witnessed the interaction between the accused staff and resident. The resident was assessed and found to have no markings or evidence that the incident occurred. The accused staff was placed on administrative leave pending the investigation outcome. LPA conducted a wellness check at the facility; no health or safety issues were identified. No deficiencies were cited or observed on this date. An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Calais Anguiano, who was provided with a copy of this report and Appeal Rights (LIC9056 03/22).

Oct 8, 2025Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated
Allegation investigated: Lack of supervision resulting in multiple injuries. Staff made false statements regarding resident incident. Staff falsified records
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Nacole Patterson conducted an unannounced subsequent visit to deliver findings regarding the above complaint allegations. LPA introduced themselves and disclosed the purpose of the visit and elements of the complaint to Executive Director Calais Anguiano. On 08/07/2025 it was alleged that staff’s lack of supervision for Resident 1 (R1) resulted in multiple injuries, staff made false statements regarding R1's incident, and that staff falsified records regarding R1's incident. The Department’s investigation consisted of unannounced facility visits, interviews with facility staff, outside sources, and records review. Regarding the allegation, “Lack of supervision resulting in multiple injuries”, eight (8) staff members involved in the incident on 08/02/2025 were interviewed. Staff interviews did not corroborate the allegation, as staff stated R1 had been supervised per care plan as routine, and was observed walking during and after dinner in their neighborhood of the facility. (Continued on LIC9099 p.2) Unsubstantiated (Continued from LIC9099 p.1) Staff stated that they began actively looking for R1 when R1 could not be located for their evening medication pass. Staff elevated R1’s absence per protocol through their chain of command, and R1 was located on the ground within the enclosed gated yard where residents were allowed to freely roam. Staff assessed R1 for injuries and notified R1’s Hospice agency as well as their Responsible Party. Staff additionally informed that the outside doors to the enclosed yard areas remained unlocked and open often throughout the day, per the facility’s “51 Standards” model for memory care residents. Staff stated unanimously that R1 did not have any physical injuries after the incident, with the exception of a possible minor cheek abrasion/redness. Staff stated they were unsure if the cheek abrasion was from the incident on 08/02/2025, or from a different injury due to R1’s pattern of frequent falls. Review of facility records corroborated staff statements regarding the timeline of events. The facility’s internal incident report and written statements from staff were consistent with staff statements made during interviews. Progress notes for R1 showed that R1 was placed on alert charting during the timeframe of concern and showed no signs of discomfort or pain after the incident occurred, vitals in normal range, and R1 presented at baseline. The facility’s “51 Standards” document stated that “Outside doors to enclosed yard areas are open every day and must remain open from 7:00am to 9:00pm”, corroborating staff statements that R1 was allowed to freely walk around the gated yard where they were found. Records did not give evidence that R1 was not being supervised according to their care plan during the time of incident. An outside medical professional familiar with R1 (OS1) was interviewed; OS1 informed that R1’s baseline was to walk around the facility for long periods during the day. OS1 additionally informed that due to cognition, R1’s walking pattern was absent of R1 looking down to see where they stepped, resulting in frequent falls. OS1 informed that a fall mitigation plan was in place with ongoing care plan updates between the facility, R1’s Responsible Person, and R1’s Hospice agency. OS1 informed that they frequented the facility due to being involved with multiple residents and did not have concerns regarding the facility’s supervision of R1 or other residents. A second outside source (OS2) from an advocacy agency was interviewed; OS2 informed that they had not conducted an investigation regarding the incident at the time of the call, however based on prior visits they had no concerns about supervision at the facility. (Continued on LIC9099 p.3) (Continued from LIC9099 p.2) During an unannounced facility visit LPAs Patterson and Ngallo walked the perimeter of the property; LPAs observed all gated yard areas to be enclosed and locked. LPAs additionally observed resident care in each neighborhood; LPAs observed residents being assisted by staff with activities of daily living (ADLS). No residents were observed to be waiting for care or in an unsafe or unsupervised location. LPAs attempted to interview R1, however due to R1’s major neurocognitive disorder they were not able to be qualified for interview. LPAs found observations of R1's gait and walking pattern to be consistent with staff and outside source statements. Regarding the allegations “Staff made false statements regarding resident incident”, and “Staff falsified records”, eight (8) of eight (8) staff members involved in the incident denied that they were instructed by management or another staff member to make false statements or omit information regarding R1’s incident, including written documentation of the incident. Staff informed that the interview statements and written statements were true and accurate to the incident. Each staff member was interviewed privately, and their statements/recollection of events were consistent with other staff statements and records. Two outside sources were interviewed regarding the allegations. The information provided by R1’s Hospice agency was consistent with the information provided by the facility. While OS2 had not yet conducted an investigation regarding the incident, they did not express concerns of the facility’s truthfulness regarding resident incidents. Review of facility records did not corroborate the allegations. Staff written statements and incident reports of the event corroborated verbal statements during interviews. Additional records revealed that an internal investigation was conducted by the facility’s Human Resources department, and no evidence was found that staff falsified details of R1’s incident or were instructed to do so. No records were found to give evidence to falsified statements or falsified records. Based on interviews, direct LPA observations and records review, a preponderance of evidence does not exist to prove that the alleged violations occurred, therefore the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED. An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Calais Anguiano, to whom a copy of this report and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22) were provided and their signature on this report confirms receipt of the Licensee Rights.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Oct 8, 2025 · control 08-AS-20250807121519

Allegation investigated: - Facility did not allow resident to refuse medical care - Facility did not meet resident’s nutritional needs
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Carmen Lopez conducted an unannounced complaint visit to open a complaint investigation. While at the facility LPA investigated and delivered findings regarding the above-mentioned allegations. LPA identified herself and was granted entry by Caroline Fitzgerald, Concierge. LPA stated the purpose of the visit and reviewed the findings of the complaint with Administrator Dyan Summerell and Kaitly Collins, Director of Resident and Family Services. The Department’s investigation consisted of interviews with staff and attempted interview with resident, records review of relevant documents pertinent to this investigation, and LPA observations. On February 28, 2025, it was alleged facility did not allow resident to refuse medical care, and facility did not meet resident’s nutritional needs. (Continuation on LIC9099-C) Unsubstantiated (Continuation of LIC9099) It was specifically alleged resident #1 (R1) had a catheter they did not want. Interview with the Executive Director, Diane Summerell, said they were following the R1s PCP orders upon admission. R1 ended up being discharged from the hospital with a catheter. They were aware R1 had ongoing issues with the use of the catheter but moved into the community with the catheter already in place. They did say that Home Health was coming out to assist R1 with their catheter. Per Executive Director, R1 currently does not have a catheter in place. Interview with staff #1 (S1) confirmed that the resident had the catheter in place when they had moved into the facility on or about December 10, 2024, but since has been removed. A review of records revealed that the hospital assessment, dated December 9, 2024, said a urinary retention Foley was placed. Hospital care plan, dated December 11, 2024, noted that resident had not made progress and recommended to address the barriers to include discharge with foley catheter. They did do a home health referral to CenterWell for PT and RN- foley care. Resident was admitted to the facility on or about December 10, 2024. According to R1’s preplacement appraisal, dated December 11, 2024, R1 had a new Foley at the hospital as they had failed their trial to remove it twice. Residents Physician’s report, dated December 3, 2024, showed the resident did have a Foley catheter. Home Health care notes show that they were assisting resident with their catheter about every 3 to 4 days since December 2024 through February 2023. Hospital discharge documentation, dated February 25, 2025, showed that R1 was sent to the hospital for displacement of Foley catheter. On March 7, 2025, LPA briefly spoke with R1, but was unable to qualify the residents interview. LPA observed that they did not have a catheter in place or bags on their person. Based on the aforementioned this allegation is deemed unsubstantiated. It was specifically alleged that the facility did not wake resident to have their meals. Interview with Executive Director Summerell said that the resident did come in with malnourishment. According to S1 the facility does have a Country Kitchen where they provide residents with many snacks if they are feeling hungry after meals. They are aware their caregivers are provided a list of residents to care for and assist them to their meals. According to S2, R1 is one of their good eaters. If they are asleep, S1 said they would hold on to their dinner plate and give it to them when they awake to have their dinner. At times R1 may be hungry throughout the night but is able to get a snack from their Country Kitchen. According to S3, they have worked with R1. S3 describes R1s eating customs to be a very well eater. They corroborated S2s statement, that they save residents food when its dinner time and the resident is sleeping. (Continuation on LIC9099-C) (Continuation of LIC9099-C) S3 said that it is not normal for R1 to be sleeping at dinner time but has occurred. R1 will also have all types of snacks if they are hungry. They go into their Country Kitchen and have a snack. A review of records revealed resident had a hospital visit prior to admission, dated November 21, 2024, and PCP serviced resident on November 22, 2024 that noted that resident’s appearance was an underweight elderly person. The hospital assessment noted that the resident had moderate to severe malnutrition. On November 30, 2024, the resident was seen at the hospital, and their assessment regarding the resident’s weight did not change – the resident was still underweight. An email dated December 10, 2024, from the facility did make staff aware R1 did have a malnourishment diagnosis with significant weight loss upon R1s admission. Hospital progress notes dated December 7, 2024, said the resident had an appetite that day and weighed 51.2 kilograms (approximately 112.87 pounds) for their last 10 readings. Facility weight notes show that the resident has been fluctuating in weight between 113 – 120 pounds the past month. The facility is obtaining Nutritional Care Notes from Dining which indicate R1s diagnosis, weight, plan and goal to address their condition. During LPA’s visit on March 7, 2025, they saw R1 was in the activities room with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a water and had another before LPA left. Based on the Department’s investigation of the above-mentioned allegations and the evidence obtained during staff interviews, records reviewed, and LPA observations, there is insufficient evidence to meet the preponderance of evidence standard. Therefore, the above allegations are deemed to be unsubstantiated. The report was discussed and an exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Dyan Summerell and Kaitlyn Collins, Director of Resident and Family Services. A copy of this report along with Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 3/22) were provided to Executive Director Summerell at the conclusion of the visit.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Carmen Lopez conducted an unannounced complaint visit to open a complaint investigation. While at the facility LPA investigated and delivered findings regarding the above-mentioned allegation. LPA identified herself and was granted entry by Rhea Espinoza, Receptionist. LPA stated the purpose of the visit and reviewed the findings of the complaint with Marivel Johnson, Administrator. The Department’s investigation consisted of interviews with staff and records review of relevant documents pertinent to this investigation. On July 17, 2023, it was alleged that facility staff violated residents’ personal rights.

Interview with the Administrator confirmed that the Facility conducted an internal investigation where they found staff #1 and staff #2 admitted to grooming three residents without the consent of their responsible parties. Upon the Facility’s discovery of the occurrence, they conducted their internal action for staff that included training. Substantiated A review of records revealed that the facility had self-reported the incident on an Unusual Incident/Injury Report to the Department on July 10, 2023.

Jan 30, 2023Complaint investigation reportUnfounded
Allegation investigated: Facility staff did not have residents participate in self-administering medication
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Marisela Garcia-Centeno conducted an unannounced visit to deliver investigative findings. LPA was greeted by Administrator, Marivel Johnson to whom she identified herself and discussed the purpose of the visit. The Department investigated the above listed complaint allegation. The investigation consisted of a tour of the facility, multiple interviews with staff and outside sources, and records review. On July 26, 2021, Community Care Licensing (CCL) received a complaint alleging that facility staff did not have residents participate in self-administering medication. It was specifically alleged that staff without proper credentials were crushing, mixing, and administering medication directly into the residents’ mouth without allowing the residents to participate in the process. (continue on LIC9099C) Unfounded (Continue from LIC9099) Review of the facility approved plan of operations, position job descriptions and staff training requirements indicated that staff designated to handle medication were required to complete the training required per Title 22 regulations. Review of records indicated the facility had written policies and procedures for the functions of the designated staff. A review of staff training records confirmed that the facility staff who assisted residents with the self-administration of medications met all of the initial training, testing and annual training requirements as specified in Health and Safety Code section 1569.69. Staff statements during interviews confirmed that they had taken all the required training and that as a condition of employment they were required to do annual trainings and testing in medication management. In addition, staff consistently stated they provided assistance to residents in memory care with self-administration as needed following specific orders authorized by the resident’s physician. Staff interviews consistently confirmed that they review and follow the resident’s physician’s orders as documented in the Electronic Medication Administration Record System, (EMARS). Staff indicated that in the EMARS system a resident’s record is highlighted with “crush medication and mix with (substance of choice based on resident’s preference)". In addition, review of medication administration records during a facility visit conducted on July 30, 2021, confirmed there were no medication inconsistencies or errors during the period when this complaint was filed. Based on the results of the investigation, which consisted of observations, interviews with key staff and outside sources, and review of pertinent resident and facility records there was no evidence found to support this allegation. The Department has found that the complaint allegation was unfounded, meaning that the allegation was false, could not have happened and/or is without a reasonable basis. An exit interview was conducted with Administrator, Marivel Johnson, to whom a copy of this report, and Licensee Appeal Rights (9058 01/16) were provided at the conclusion of the visit.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Jan 30, 2023 · control 08-AS-20210726113635

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.

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for memory care shared bedroom, seen September 9, 2026. We don’t have this home’s dementia-care disclosure. California requires a home that advertises dementia care to describe that care in writing when you ask.
Among 71 other homes of a similar licensed size across San Diego County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,600 to $5,741 a month, and the middle figure is $4,495 (n = 71 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.
