How people payPrivate pay, Medi-Cal waiver, SSI/SSP, veterans, insurance

MedicareDoes not pay for room and board in a care home. It can still cover hospice or home-health visits inside one.
Private payMost residents pay from savings, a home sale or family help. Ask for the rate and what it includes in writing.
Medi-Cal Assisted Living WaiverThis 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.
SSI/SSPCalifornia’s 2026 standard is $1,626.07 a month; $1,444.07 of it goes to the home and $182 stays with the resident. Whether this home accepts it is not on file — ask.
VeteransVA Aid & Attendance can add to a veteran’s or surviving spouse’s pension. Ask whether residents here have used it.
Long-term care insuranceMost policies pay for licensed care homes. Ask what paperwork the home provides for claims.

How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from

The home lists this starting rate on its own website for now offering apartments, seen October 5, 2026.

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.

Allegation investigated: Staff placed a surveillance camera in resident's room without proper authorization

On 06/09/2026 at 12:15 PM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) David Doidge and Andrew Christy arrived unannounced to conduct an initial 10-day complaint investigation and to deliver findings regarding the allegation above. LPAs met with Executive Director Carol Dowell and explained the purpose of the visit. During the course of the investigation, LPAs obtained copies of the Identification and Emergency Contact Information, and Admission Agreements for three (3) residents. LPAs also obtained a copy of the notice to residents about the sage system. LPAs also interviewed W1, S1, S2, R1, R2, and toured the facility inspecting four rooms. Allegation: Staff placed a surveillance camera in resident's room without proper authorization Continued on LIC9099-C Substantiated Continued from LIC9099 Investigation Findings: It was reported to the department that staff have installed a camera in a resident’s bedroom without consent. LPAs inspected four resident rooms observing cameras in each room. R1 informed LPAs that they did not give consent to having the device installed in the room. R2 informed LPAs that they did not consent to having the camera installed in the room. S1 informed LPAs that the system has not been activated yet, so there is no feed. S1 stated he device is a fall detection system used for fall detection and do not record audio or video. Both S1 and S2 confirmed the facility has not given any resident a consent form. W1 informed LPAs that the cameras are not programmed for audio but could not confirm if the cameras are capable or not of audio. S2 informed LPAs that the facility has not yet gone live, so none of the cameras are functioning as the facility is awaiting approval of the sage system. LPAs reviewed the Admission Agreements for R1, R2 and R3, and noted that the Admission Agreement explicitly states there are to be no nanny cameras or other surveillance devices in resident rooms. LPAs also reviewed R1, R2, and R3’s files and noted no consent in their files for a camera to be installed. The preponderance of the evidence standard has been met, and therefore the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED. Deficiency is cited from Title 22 California Code of Regulations (see LIC9099D). Failure to submit proof of correction by plan of correction due date and any repeat violation within 12 month period may result in an additional civil penalty.

“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 1,354 licensed larger communities (16+ 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 Brentwood Grove Senior Living cost?

$3,495 a month to start — listed by the home on its own website · October 5, 2026.

The home lists this starting rate on its own website for now offering apartments, seen October 5, 2026.

Among 26 other homes of a similar licensed size across Contra Costa County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,350 to $6,688 a month, and the middle figure is $5,470 (n = 26 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 Brentwood Grove Senior Living 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 Brentwood Sh Opco LLC & Seasons Management LLC, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Kaiser Foundation Hospital - Antioch is 3.1 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

Can Brentwood Grove Senior Living keep a resident on hospice?
