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

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 19 small homes and similar homes within 15 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.

Daily life

Administrator emailed a copy of the house rules. Substantiated CONTINUE OF LIC9099 Allegation: Staff do not treat residents with respect Investigation Finding: Substantiated Witness 1 reported that the facility staff doesn’t treat the clients with respect. During the investigation, while conducting a tour of the facility, the LPA observed staff speaking to a client in a disrespectful manner. Interviews with clients revealed that staff had, on occasion, used inappropriate language (cursing), spoken disrespectfully to clients, and displayed negative attitudes towards clients. Additionally, it was reported that some staff members raised their voices and became visibly upset instead of maintaining a calm and professional attitude towards clients. Therefore, this allegation is Substantiated. Allegation: Facility is malodorous Investigation Finding: Substantiated Witness 1 reported that the facility is malodorous. During the investigation LPA toured the facility and confirmed the presence of a malodorous smell. Staff interviews revealed that the facility is aware of the issue and working to address it. Staff also reported that the odor my be caused by clients saving cigarette butts or not maintaining proper personal hygiene. Client interviews indicated that staff often attribute the odor to clients hygiene habits. Some clients reported that the smell also originates from the bathroom area, as certain clients have been using the floor instead of the toilet, clients also stated that it’s a house with 6 guys and the place is not expected to smell the best. Therefore, this allegation is Substantiated. CONTINUE FROM LIC9099 Allegation: Staff do not ensure residents’ hygiene needs are met Investigation Finding: Substantiated Witness 1 reported that staff do not ensure clients’ hygiene needs are met. During the investigation, the LPA toured the facility and observed that the supply of hygiene products was insufficient for the number of clients in care. The facility inventory included two small travel-size toothpastes, six bars of soap, and no shampoo, lotion or powder. Interviews with staff confirmed that the facility has limited hygiene supplies available. Staff also reported that clients buy their own hygiene supplies. Interview with clients confirmed and further supported that hygiene products are not consistently provided by the facility. Therefore, this allegation is Substantiated. Based on the Department’s investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met; therefore, the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, are being cited on the attached LIC9099D. Exit interview conducted. A copy of this report and appeal rights provided. CONTINUE FROM LIC9099A Allegation: Staff do not ensure the residents’ clothes are clean Investigation Finding: unsubstantiated Witness 1 reported that the facility is not ensuring that clients’ clothes are clean. LPA toured the facility and witnessed where the laundry is washed. Interview with staff revealed that the clients wash their clothes two to three times a week. Interview with clients revealed that the clients wash their clothes about 3 times a week. Therefore, this allegation is Unsubstantiated. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did occur, therefore the allegation that staff did not give medications as prescribed is unsubstantiated. No deficiencies observed during visit. Exit interview conducted and a copy of this report provided.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Nov 6, 2025 · control 15-AS-20250725130825

“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 Yvonne's Home Care Services cost?

$5,300 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,350–$6,500. 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 19 small homes and similar homes within 15 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 34 other homes of a similar licensed size across Contra Costa County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $6,500 a month, and the middle figure is $4,500 (n = 34 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 Yvonne's Home Care Services 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 Daniels, Carolyn Yvonne, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Kaiser Foundation Hospital - Richmond Campus is 2.8 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

Can Yvonne's Home Care Services keep a resident on hospice?

Not on file — the state’s record does not list hospice care on this license. Ask: “Can a resident stay here on hospice, and under what conditions?”
