  • 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.

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

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 10 small homes and similar homes within 10 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.

The facility has been approved for a hospice waiver for 4 residents and has a fire clearance for 6 non-ambulatory residents, one of which can be a bedridden resident. Upon arrival, there were 5 residents in care and 2 staff on duty. One resident was away from the facility. Currently there are 6 residents residing in the facility with 1 resident on hospice. Administrator Timothy Pryko arrived at approximately 10:23 am. LPAs explained the purpose of the visit. Entrance interview conducted. A tour of the physical environment and accommodations were assessed, and the following was noted: LPAs observed the required posting of the complaint poster, bill of rights, Resident’s Rights, Non-discrimination statement, Infection Control Plan, and Emergency and Disaster Plan. LPAs inspected the facility for fire safety, personal accommodations, and food service. First aid kit was observed to be complete. The facility has 6 private bedrooms each with a private bathroom for 6 residents. Each resident’s room is furnished with overhead lights to provide sufficient lighting, a night stand, and a bed. The bathrooms have secure grab bars and no skid flooring. The physical environment was checked for cleanliness and condition. Walls, windows, ceilings, doors, floors and floor coverings were checked.

Not shown on the facility sketch is a second perimeter gate on the east side leading from the backyard (south of facility). The second perimeter gate is locked from the north side making it inaccessible for residents/staff to exit in the case of an emergency. Noted on the gate is a sign that reads "Keep gate locked at all times." The facility sketch shows Exit #11 is a wrought iron gate with a combination lock located on the inside of the gate with signage stating "Keep gate locked at all times." LPAs observed the Emergency and Disaster drill logs do not specify the type of drill performed at the time of the drill. LPAs advised Administrator Pryko that all future drills need to state the specific drill being conducted or provide more specific information as to the description of what was covered during the drill. LPAs observed an oxygen tank in the facility with an "oxygen in use" sign on the door of Resident 1 (R1). There was no "oxygen in use" sign posted on the front door entering into the facility. The backyard has a covered patio with outdoor furniture. There is a cement fountain located in the backyard. The fountain is filled with water and rocks. The recycling bin, green waste bin, and trash bins are standard bins with flip lids. A locked private staff room is located in the main part of the house near the front entrance.

“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 Abundant Care IV cost?

$5,250 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,300–$6,450. 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 10 small homes and similar homes within 10 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 10 other homes of a similar licensed size in Santa Barbara that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,500 to $5,200 a month, and the middle figure is $5,000 (n = 10 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 Abundant Care IV 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 Abundant Care, Inc., per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026. See the homes licensed to Abundant Care, Inc. — at least 2 on the state roster.

Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital is 0.9 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.
