What does Alta Vista Manor cost?

$5,500 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 11 other homes of a similar licensed size in Vista that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,575 to $5,875 a month, and the middle figure is $5,000 (n = 11 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.

Does Alta Vista Manor take Medi-Cal?

On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this 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.

Who holds the license?

The license is held by Wilson, John, per CDSS records as of September 27, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Sharp Tri-City Medical Center is 1.2 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

Can Alta Vista Manor 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?”

  • 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.

  • MedicareDoes not pay for room and board in a care home. It can still cover hospice or home-health visits inside one.
If the money runs out, what Medi-Cal covers
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.

24 homes like this within 5 miles publish starting rates mostly between $4,500–$7,000.

  • 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: Licensee is not adhering to resident's admission agreement. Staff mismanaged resident's medication.

On 05/13/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jacqueline Shaw-Ross arrived unannounced at the facility to deliver findings of the investigation regarding the allegations listed above. The LPA met with Administrator, Anna Wilson, and informed her of the purpose of her visit. The investigation included staff interviews, a review of records, and collection of relevant documentation. It was alleged that the family of R1 believed they would not receive a partial refund following R1's passing on 12/26/2025. The family had paid in advance for the period of 12/5/2025, through 01/05/2026, and believed they were entitled to a refund for the remaining nine days. A review of R1's Admission Agreement was conducted and indicated that "Any refund of fees paid in advance for the time following the resident's death would be issued within 15 days after all of the resident's personal belonging had been removed from the facility." Continued LIC 9099-C.... Unsubstantiated A review documents and interviews conducted with staff revealed that the family of R1 was issued a check for the appropriate refund amount, which covered the remaining nine days following R1's passing. The family of R1 became upset when the administrator attempted to assess an additional charge for painting the bedroom walls. However, no additional fees were ultimately charged for normal wear and tear. Therefore the allegation that the Licensee is not adhering to the resident's Admission Agreement is unsubstantiated. It was alleged that staff mismanaged R1's medication by failing to administer morphine to the resident. Interviews conducted with staff and a review of obtained documents revealed that R1 had a physician's order for morphine to be administered on an as-needed basis for pain and shortness of breath. Additionally, an interview with R1's family indicated there were no concerns regarding the administration of medication to the resident. Therefore the allegation that staff mismanaged R1's medication is unsubstantiated. A finding that the complaint is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove the alleged violations occurred. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report, and appeal rights were provided to Anna Wilson.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, May 13, 2026 · control 18-AS-20260105132727

Allegation investigated: Staff administered unprescribed medication to residents. Staff did not meet requirements to administer medications.

On 05/13/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jacqueline Shaw-Ross, arrived unannounced to the facility to conduct an investigation into the above allegations. LPA met with Anna Wilson, Administrator and the purpose of the visit was explained. A tour of the facility was conducted inside and out. There were no health or safety issues observed. The Investigation Consisted of: LPA conducted the following interviews: Administrator Interview(A#1), Staff Interviews (S#1-S#2), Resident Interview (R#1-R#2), review of medication log, review of how medications are dispensed. LPA obtained the following documents: Resident Roster, Staff roster, Facility Staff Annual In-service training sheet dated: 04/19/2026. It was alleged that staff administer unprescribed medication to residents. Of the interviews conducted, 2 out of 2 residents report they have never been given unprescribed medication or witnessed any other resident being given medication that was unprescribed. Continued on LIC 9099-C... Unsubstantiated Of the staff interviews conducted, 3 out of 3 staff report they have never instructed or been instructed to give unprescribed medication to residents in care. Medications are bubble packed and stored in a locked room and in a locked cabinet, and MAR system is actively utilized and maintained. Therefore the allegation that staff are giving out unprescribed medication to residents in unsubstantiated. It was alleged that caregivers did not meet the requirements to administer medication to residents. Of all of the residents interviews, 2 out of 2 residents report they have never observed the facility having untrained staff administer medication. Of all of the staff interviews conducted, 3 out of 3 staff report they have never had or observed untrained caregivers administer medication. Based on all information gathered including interviews with staff and residents, review of medication training records, MARS, and observation of medication administration procedures, there was no indication that staff failed to meet the requirements for administering medications. Investigation revealed that only designated staff are permitted to administer medications. Medications are maintained in bubble packs, and designated staff prepare the medications in cups before hand them to caregivers, who then provide the medications to residents. Review of records confirmed the most recent medication training was conducted on 04/19/2026. Therefore, the allegation that staff do not meet the requirements to administer medications to residents in care is unsubstantiated. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is no preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.

The correspondence, however, did not provide confirmation of the request being satisfied. Licensee Wilson was not available to be interviewed. Administrator Wilson reported having no knowledge of the request for records and had no knowledge of whether the request was satisfied by the Licensee or not. R1 was not available to be interviewed, as the resident passed away on 01/02/2022, prior to the receipt of the allegation. R1's resident file was not available for review prior to the completion of the investigation. Staff and resident interviews could provide no information regarding the allegation. Therefore, due to a lack of information that could either refute or corroborate the allegation, this complaint is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. Another allegation was received alleging Administrator Wilson and Licensee Wilson stole R1's personal belongings from the resident's house after their death on 01/02/2022 and were attempting to take possession of R1's home title. Administrator Wilson was interviewed and denied having any of R1's personal property. Administrator Wilson did report she and Licensee, John Wilson, did ask the resident to sell their home to them for a price of $900,000.00 after the resident voluntarily discharged from the facility, sometime in 2018. According to Administrator Wilson, R1 refused to sell their home to either herself or Licensee Wilson. Licensee Wilson was not available to be interviewed. R1 was not available to be interviewed due to their passing on 01/02/2022, prior to the receipt of the allegation. R1's resident file was not available for review; however, Administrator Wilson was able to provide the LPA with an Admission Agreement showing R1 was admitted to the facility on 06/24/2017. Staff and resident interviews could provide no information regarding the allegation. Interviews were attempted with the authorized representatives of R1. One of two parties to respond reported having knowledge of alleged reports made by Administrator Wilson that R1 offered to sell their property to the staff members. The representative reported R1's property had not been sold to either the Administrator or the Licensee, though both parties were in pursuit of taking control of the resident's property via lawsuit. No documentation or other information was available to reveal when R1 left the facility or what the resident's medical diagnoses were at the time of admission. Therefore, due to a lack of information that could either refute or corroborate the allegation, this complaint is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. A finding the complaint is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove the alleged violations occurred. This report was reviewed with Administrator Wilson and a copy was provided.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Jan 28, 2025 · control 18-AS-20220608160358

Jan 10, 2024Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Facility staff not meeting residents incontinence needs Facility staff are not changing a residents bedding Facility staff failed to keep the facility free of odors

Licensing Program Analyst Becky Kennedy concluded the investigation which began on 4/22/2021. LPA Kennedy made an unannounced visit to the above facility today and met with Administrator, Anna Wilson. LPA advised them of the reason for today's visit and delivered the investigation findings on the above allegations. It was alleged that Resident 1’s (R1) room smelled of urine, the bed sheets had feces, and that R1’s brief had not been changed and appeared very saturated. The investigation into the above allegations consisted of interviews with staff, outside sources, a review of records, and virtual tour of the interior and exterior of the facility. Unsubstantiated The investigation revealed that the facility had thirteen residents in care, nine of whom were incontinent and required full care with their toileting needs. The facility has three care staff on duty during waking hours and two during the night. Interviews revealed that care staff check on each resident every two hours including overnight, and provide care as needed. The facility training material regarding incontinence care is thorough and includes cleanliness of laundry and furniture as well as getting rid of lingering odors. Per mayoclinic.org “skin that is constantly in contact with urine may get irritated or sore and can break down. This happens with severe incontinence if you don't take precautions, such as using moisture barriers or incontinence pads.” The investigation revealed that R1 did not have any skin breakdown. An outside source was in the facility four days after the above concerns were alleged and no concerns were identified by the outside source during that visit. Interviews and documentation did not provide enough evidence to prove a violation occurred therefore these allegations are found to be unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report, and appeal rights were given to Anna Wilson.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Jan 10, 2024 · control 08-AS-20210416145607

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 and the questions below stand in their place.

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.

  1. What is included in the monthly rate, and what costs extra?
  2. Who is awake overnight, and how do residents ask for help?
  3. Which rooms does the non-ambulatory approval cover, and what transfer support is provided?
  4. What could change whether someone can stay here?
  5. Can we see a bedroom and share a meal during a visit?
