“Not on file” is not a no — approvals can be bed- or room-specific, so confirm current scope with the home on a tour. Where a number is shown it is the state’s own wording for how many residents the approval covers, not how many places are open today; where none is shown, the record simply does not state one.

Specific medical needs — insulin, oxygen, a catheter, an ostomy — aren’t in the state license record; ask the home directly. A feeding tube, tracheostomy, or advanced wound care usually needs skilled nursing →

Is Yokam's Rcfe # 1n licensed?

Yes — Yokam's Rcfe # 1n is a licensed residential care home for the elderly (RCFE) in Nipomo (San Luis Obispo County): California license #405850478, shown as licensed in the CDSS state record checked August 2, 2026, licensed for 6 residents. State records list 7 inspection and complaint documents since 2021; the most recent, a facility evaluation report dated January 7, 2026, appears in the inspection record on this page.

Can Yokam's Rcfe # 1n care for dementia, hospice, bedridden, or non-ambulatory residents?

From the CDSS license record, checked August 2, 2026.

The CDSS license record checked August 2, 2026 lists Yokam's Rcfe # 1n with clearances for wheelchair / non-ambulatory, hospice care, and bedridden; it does not list dementia / memory care. A clearance that is not on file is not a “no” — it may simply be unrecorded, so if your family needs one of these, ask the home directly and confirm its current scope on a tour.

Wheelchair / non-ambulatoryDementia / memory careHospice careBedridden

From the California state record. Some approvals are bed- or room-specific — always confirm current scope with the facility.

Verbatim, from the CDSS license recordAGE RANGE 60 AND OVER. APPROVED FOR 6 NON-AMBULATORY, OF WHICH 4 MAY BE BEDRIDDEN; HOSPICE WAIVER APPROVED FOR 4 HOSPICE RESIDENTS.

How much does Yokam's Rcfe # 1n cost?

California's public licensing record does not include Yokam's Rcfe # 1n's monthly price, so we never show or estimate one for a specific home. As county-level context only, assisted living in San Luis Obispo County typically runs $5,000–$7,500/mo and small board-and-care homes $4,000–$6,500/mo (market research compiled June 2026 — ranges, not quotes; California's 2026 SSI/SSP board-and-care payment standard is $1,626.07/month, of which $1,444.07 is the room-and-board portion paid to the home). Ask the home for its own rate sheet and what the base rate includes — or use the cost section at the top of this page.

Does Yokam's Rcfe # 1n accept Medi-Cal or the Assisted Living Waiver?

Yokam's Rcfe # 1n is not in the DHCS Assisted Living Waiver participant record we checked August 9, 2026 — that list covers only the state's ALW program, not a home's own payment policies, so ask the home directly about private Medi-Cal arrangements. The waiver pays for assisted-living care services (not room and board) at participating homes; every DHCS-listed home appears on our statewide Medi-Cal page.

What the state has logged

California has logged 9 state visits for this home as of August 2, 2026. These are the home's own counts, straight from that record — shown beside the statewide median for small board-and-care homes (6 or fewer beds), computed across all 5,773 licensed homes of that size, because larger and longer-licensed homes naturally accumulate more visits and reports. They are facts, not a grade — a citation may be minor and since corrected, and an “unsubstantiated” complaint is not a finding of wrongdoing.
