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

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 24 homes with 7 to 49 beds and similar homes within 21 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.

Mar 8, 2025Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Resident sustained fracture while in care Staff did not seek timely medical care for resident in care Staff did not report resident's incident to appropriate parties

The purpose of this visit is to deliver complaint finding for the allegation above. The current census is 9. A brief interview with conducted with the administrator. It was alleged that resident sustained a fracture while in care, that staff did not seek timely medical attention for the resident in care, and that staff did not report the incident to the appropriate parties. This investigation involved interviews with facility staff and residents. Based on the interviews, 5 out of 5 staff members denied the allegations and stated that they did not witness the incident. LPA interviewed 2 out of 2 resident who stated that they feel safe and does get medical care when needed. Continued LIC 9099-C Unsubstantiated During a facility visit on 11/23/24, LPA Lee was unable to obtain relevant records regarding resident (R1). Administrator John Gryspos informed LPA Lee that (R1)'s file had been stored in the facility basement but was destroyed in a flood in 2022; therefore, LPA Lee was unable to interview resident (R1) or (R1)'s responsible party. Due to the lack of documentation and insufficient information, there was no clear indication that the alleged incident occurred. The investigation revealed the preponderance of evidence standards have not been met; therefore, the above allegations are found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED means that although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation(s)occurred. Per California Code of Regulations (CCRs) - Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 6, no deficiencies were cited. A copy of this report was provided.

“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 327 licensed mid-size homes (7–15 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 Alexandria Victoria cost?

$4,250 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,350–$5,600. 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 24 homes with 7 to 49 beds and similar homes within 21 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 5 other homes of a similar licensed size in Santa Cruz that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $2,438 to $4,225 a month, and the middle figure is $3,500 (n = 5 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 Alexandria Victoria 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 Ofelia Jony, Inc., per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026. See the homes licensed to Ofelia Jony Inc. — at least 2 on the state roster.

Dominican Hospital is 1.3 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.
