Is Silver Oaks licensed?

No — not currently. The CDSS state record checked August 2, 2026 lists Silver Oaks in Menlo Park (San Mateo County), California license #415601052, as “Closed, Change Of Ownership, formerly licensed for 43 residents. State records list 38 inspection and complaint documents since 2021; the most recent, a complaint investigation report dated April 30, 2026, appears in the inspection record on this page.

Can Silver Oaks 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 Silver Oaks 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.

How much does Silver Oaks cost?

California's public licensing record does not include Silver Oaks's monthly price, so we never show or estimate one for a specific home. As county-level context only, assisted living in San Mateo County typically runs $6,000–$9,000/mo and small board-and-care homes $5,000–$8,000/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 Silver Oaks accept Medi-Cal or the Assisted Living Waiver?

Yes — Medi-Cal can help pay for care at Silver Oaks through California's Assisted Living Waiver (ALW): the home appears on the Department of Health Care Services participant list checked August 9, 2026. The waiver pays for assisted-living care services — not room and board — for eligible Medi-Cal members, and each home takes a limited number of waiver residents, so ask the home about a current ALW opening.

What the state has logged

California has logged 41 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 larger communities (16+ beds), computed across all 1,244 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.
