$5,600 a month to start — listed by the home on Seniorly · September 9, 2026.
The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living shared bedroom, seen September 9, 2026.
Among 9 other homes of a similar licensed size in Menifee that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,875 to $4,500 a month, and the middle figure is $4,500 (n = 9 other homes publishing a starting rate).
Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date in September 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.

- 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 September 23, 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.

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 community 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.
- What is the full monthly cost for the room and care we need, and what does it include?
- What would the next care level cost, and who decides when it changes?
- What is billed separately, and is there a one-time fee or deposit at move-in?
- Is any private-pay period required before another payment program can begin?
How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from
The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living shared bedroom, seen September 9, 2026.
17 homes like this within 5 miles publish starting rates mostly between $4,100–$5,000.
- 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).

Allegation investigated: Staff are interfering with the residents medical decision
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Christian Gutierrez conducted a subsequent complain visit in regard to the allegations listed above. LPA met with Licensee Mariana Mihailovici who assisted with today’s visit. The investigation consisted of the following: During the initial visit conducted on 09/27/2023, LPA Janira Arreola conducted an unannounced visit to the facility in order to investigate the above allegation. During the visit, LPA conducted interviews and conducted records reviews. LPA advised the licensee on records that would need to be sent to the LPA. At the time the allegations required further investigation. During today’s visit, LPA Gutierrez obtained staff roster, resident roster, reviewed six (6) residents files, interviewed Licensee, staff #1- (S1), residents 1-3 (R1-R3), telephone interviews with witness #1-witness #2 (W1-W2) and attempted interviews with witness #3- witness #6 (W3-W6). LPA delivered findings. SEE LIC 9099C Unsubstantiated In regard to the allegation” Staff are interfering with the resident’s medical decision”, It is alleged that facility forces their residents to choose one specific hospice agency not offering any choices to their residents. During interview with Licensee, and staff both stated that they never make medical decisions for residents, all family or responsible parties are notified. Licensee stated that they make suggestions but ultimately, it’s the family’s choice on what agency they want to go with. Licensee stated that facility does not use mentioned hospice care agency that is listed on report. LPA reviewed three (3) current residents files and three (3) former resident files all who received hospice care at one time at facility and six (6) out of six (6) were never using mentioned hospice care agency on report. LPA interviewed two (2) witnesses over the telephone. W1 stated that they had a previous hospice agency that was not very good and they switched to a better agency. W1 stated facility never pressured them into making a choice for what agency they used. W2 stated they did feel a little bit of pressure in choosing there hospice agency but stated maybe it’s easier for facility to have one agency. During interviews with residents, one (1) out of three (3) stated family is in charge of medical decisions and not staff, one (1) resident stated that hospital is in charge of medical decisions, and one (1) resident did not answer LPA. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is no preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are unsubstantiated.

Life here
Rooms, meals, the rhythm of a day, faith and language, pets and house rules — as the home describes them. Tap any detail for its source and date; nothing here is graded.
The home has not described daily life anywhere we have reviewed yet — that is the case for most small homes, and it says nothing about the home. These questions fill in the picture; keep the ones that matter to you.
Before you call
Ask every home the same questions — the state’s record does not answer these. Keep the ones that matter and they travel with your saved homes.
- What is included in the monthly rate, and what costs extra?
- Who is awake overnight, and how do residents ask for help?
- Which rooms does the non-ambulatory approval cover, and what transfer support is provided?
- What could change whether someone can stay here?
- Can we see a bedroom and share a meal during a visit?
