- 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.

- 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, seen October 27, 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.
An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Allegation investigated: Staff did not provide adequate supervision Staff did not ensure resident received medical care as needed
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Samer Haddadin conducted an unannounced complaint investigation visit. Upon arrival, LPA met with Executive Director Johanna Gonzalez and explained the purpose of the visit. It was alleged that “Staff did not ensure resident received medical care as needed” and “Staff did not provide adequate supervision.” The complaint stated that Resident 1 (R1) was found unresponsive on the bedroom floor on December 30, 2025. Emergency medical personnel transported R1 to the hospital. The complaint further stated that R1 was diagnosed with an influenza infection, cardiac arrest, and brain death and was later pronounced deceased at the hospital. The reporting party (RP) alleged that the facility did not ensure R1 received an influenza vaccination and did not complete required 30-minute room checks, resulting in delayed medical intervention. During the investigation, LPA interviewed four staff members. Four out of four staff members denied the allegations and stated that residents receive appropriate supervision and that staff obtain medical assistance when a resident exhibits a change in condition or requires medical attention. Staff members stated that residents in the memory care unit are checked approximately every two hours. However, the facility does not maintain written records documenting the completion of these routine checks. LPA also interviewed four residents. {CONTINUE 9099C} Unsubstantiated Four out of four residents denied that staff failed to provide adequate supervision or necessary medical care and stated that staff were available and responsive to their care needs. LPA reviewed facility records for R1. The records documented that R1 was admitted to the facility on December 10, 2021. An updated Physician’s Report dated May 23, 2024, indicated that R1 had dementia and was subsequently relocated to the facility’s memory care unit. Facility documentation also reflected that influenza and COVID-19 vaccinations were offered at the facility on October 29, 2025, however, no records showed that R1 received any vaccination. LPA interviewed R1’s Power of Attorney (POA), who is also R1’s son. The POA confirmed that R1 was offered an influenza vaccination but could not recall whether R1 received the vaccination. The POA further stated that the facility did its best to care for R1 and that he was satisfied with the care and services provided by the facility. LPA also reviewed an email communication dated January 3, 2026, between the facility and the POA. In the email, the POA thanked the facility for caring for R1 and expressed appreciation for the care provided following R1’s passing. LPA attempted to contact the RP on April 23, 2026, April 27, 2026, and July 10, 2026. LPA was unable to obtain a statement from the reporting party. Based on interviews conducted and records reviewed, there was insufficient evidence to establish that staff failed to ensure R1 received necessary medical care or failed to provide R1 with adequate supervision. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred. Therefore, the allegations are deemed Unsubstantiated.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Jul 10, 2026 · control 22-AS-20260420152314

Allegation investigated: Staff did not reappraise resident when his condition changed. Staff did not provide resident's authorized person sufficient notice before changing his basic needs and services plan. Staff kept resident isolated in his room. Staff did not provide adequate care or supervision for residents to prevent falls. Staff accepted a resident that required a higher level of care.
On this day, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kevin Saborit-Guasch made an unannounced visit to the facility for the purpose of following up on the investigation of the five allegations listed above as well as to deliver findings to the licensee. LPA was greeted and granted entry by the facility's front desk staff after stating the purpose of the visit. Administrator Johanna Gonzalez was present and assisted with the visit. The initial complaint investigation visit was conducted on March 4, 2025. LPA accompanied by facility staff conducted a tour of the facility's memory care. Resident records were requested and obtained. A total of six staff interviews were also conducted during the visit.Additional witness interviews were conducted during the investigation along with additional records gathered. During the present visit, LPA requested R1's admission agreement for review and conducted a tour of the memory care unit. CONTINUED ON FORM LIC9099-C Unsubstantiated CONTINUED FROM FORM LIC9099 Regarding the allegation that Staff did not reappraise resident when his condition changed, the following has been concluded. Resident R1 was assessed upon move-in in October 2023 and was then reassessed multiple times throughout the period of admission, with assessments reviewed for April 2024 after six months, then monthly after July 2024 once the resident was moved to the facility's memory care until R1's move-out in December. Gradual updates appear to reflect the evolution of R1's cognitive and behavioral abilities. Regarding the allegation that Staff did not provide resident's authorized person sufficient notice before changing his basic needs and services plan, the allegation is based on facility staff ordering the immediate implementation of a one-on-one caregiver starting on December 5, 2024. Per R1's admission agreement signed by all parties on September 27, 2023, the resident and their responsible party had agreed to a clause stating: "If you become a safety risk to yourself or to others during your residency, we have the right in our sole determination to obtain, at your expense, private duty personnel to provide supervision or assistance until you move from the Community or your safety is no longer at risk, and we will communicate that decision to someone on your behalf according to the Responsible Party and/or Emergency Contact information you agree to provide us. This communication will occur in advance of implementing a private duty caregiver, if reasonably possible, or soon after we have made the decision regarding your safety". Multiple incidents involving aggressive behavioral expression were reported to the responsible party as well as to the resident's primary care physician prior to the December 5 notification. Additionally, one-on-one supervision is not listed among the basic resident services for which a change in rate would require advance notice. Regarding the allegation that Staff kept resident isolated in his room, the following has been concluded: During both facility visits, licensing staff toured the memory care unit. During both visits, residents appeared free to ambulate, with no residents found to exhibit any signs of distress. Residents were observed relaxing in the unit's common area or in their respective bedrooms. Staff interviews evidenced that one of the recommended redirection strategies for some of R1's behavioral expression was to accompany the resident back to their unit to allow R1 to calm down as well as to avoid disrupting care for the other memory care residents. Interviews however did not provide sufficient evidence to corroborate that R1 was kept in their bedroom against their will. CONTINUED ON FORM LIC9099-C CONTINUED FROM FORM LIC9099-C Regarding the allegation that Staff did not provide adequate care or supervision for residents to prevent falls, the following has been concluded: R1 sustained multiple fall incidents during their admission at the facility. Multiple assessments reviewed show that the resident was identified as a fall risk upon admission. R1 sustained scalp lacerations as a result of a fall that occurred on a family outing in May 2024, as well as skin abrasions as a result of an unwitnessed fall in memory care. Two other falls occurred prior to R1's relocation to memory care and involved mobility in the facility's elevator. Such incidents did not recur after the resident moved to the unit located on the ground floor. Interviews and records reviewed did not evidence any failure to provide adequate care and supervision of a nature that would result in a fall. Regarding the allegation that Staff accepted a resident that required a higher level of care, the following has been concluded: Allegation was formulated regarding former resident R2, admitted on October 5, 2023 upon the basis of a pre-admission assessment dated September 29, 2023. Initial assessment was confirmed in the days following the move into the facility. R2 however declined rapidly and was reassessed to a higher needs profile on October 10, 2023, before being placed onto hospice care on October 12. R2 passed away with hospice present at bedside on October 14, 2023. However no elements of R2's assessment or physician report appear to indicate the resident would not have been appropriately placed at the facility or would have required continuous nursing care at the time of admission. R2 also appears to fit the criteria for acceptance and retention listed as Attachment D of their residency agreement. As a result of the evidence gathered during the investigation, all five allegations are found to be Unsubstantiated, meaning that although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to a facility representative.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, May 28, 2025 · control 22-AS-20250224150154

CONTINUED ON FORM LIC9099-C Unfounded CONTINUED FROM FORM LIC9099-A Regarding the allegation that Facility staff did not keep accurate records on resident(s), the following was concluded: LPA obtained records initially transmitted to the family of resident R1 by facility staff that were shown to include unrelated documents pertaining to resident R2 and R3 that had been included erroneously. The allegation is therefore deemed to be Substantiated, meaning the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. A citation is issued on an attached form LIC9099-D, An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report along with appeal rights were provided to facility representative. CONTINUED FROM FORM LIC9099-A Regarding the allegation that Facility staff did not ensure that resident was adequately dressed, Facility did not have sufficient staff to meet the resident's needs, Facility staff did not assist resident to the restroom, the following was concluded: Due to the evolution of resident R1's condition, increasing difficulties with mobilization and transfers were documented by the facility in an attempt to demonstrate the need for a higher level of care. However, a majority of interviews conducted, observation led and records reviewed did not corroborate the fact that the facility was ever negligent in providing care and supervision to the resident. Therefore, the allegations that Facility staff did not ensure that resident was adequately dressed, Facility did not have sufficient staff to meet the resident's needs and that Facility staff did not assist resident to the restroom are deemed to be Unsubstantiated, meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.

The allegation is therefore found to be unfounded, meaning that the allegation is false, could not have happened and/or is without a reasonable basis. Regarding the allegation that Facility staff did not ensure that resident was adequately hydrated, records of medical examination dated October 4, 2022 by the hospice physician were obtained and reviewed during the investigation.

Regarding the allegation that Facility bathrooms do not provide a safe environment for residents in care (no support commode frames, grab bars) and that Facility bathrooms did not have supplies (soap, paper towels, toilet paper), the following was concluded: During facility visits conducted on October 11, 2022 and February 27, 2023, LPA conducted a tour of several units in the memory care wing of the facility and observed both the presence of grab bars and non-slip surfaces as well as hygiene supplies stored under lock due to the presence of dementia residents.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kimberly Lyman conducted an unannounced case management visit to deliver findings on an investigation completed by the Department. LPA was greeted and granted entry into the facility by Maintenance Director Adam Alvarado and explained the reason for the visit. During course of the investigation, the Department interviewed staff and witnesses as well as reviewed and obtained pertinent documentation. The purpose of today’s visit is to follow up on an investigation conducted by the Department. The investigation conducted revealed the following: Resident 1 (R1) was admitted into the facility on 08/08/2022 and was assessed to be independent of all activities of daily living except for medication management. Resident had been living independently prior to moving to facility but had difficulties with medication management resulting in the resident’s placement at facility by R1’s family. R1’s pre-appraisal dated 08/02/2022 indicated R1 was independent of care and had a diagnoses of Parkinson’s Disease. R1 had a noted history of hallucinations due to inconsistency of taking their Parkinson’s medication. Per the appraisal, when R1 is taking prescribed Parkinson’s medication as prescribed, R1 is considered mentally stable with no hallucinations. At the time of admission, R1 was believed to have been stabilized with no current hallucinations. R1’s physician report dated 08/04/2022 confirms the history of Parkinson’s related hallucinations, depression, and anxiety along with a diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment. During the assessment process, staff spoke with family regarding the depression diagnosis and family stated it was mostly historical as R1 had suffered from depression since early childhood. R1 was not exhibiting any signs of distress through the admission process. On 08/14/2022, R1 verbalized to staff that they wanted to disappear. Staff believed the statement was reflective of the resident being new at the facility and adjusting to the new surroundings. R1 was observed during the week periodically coming into the dining room to eat and staff reported no concerns had been observed. Resident had been eating in their room, per the resident’s preference, when not in dining room. Staff had seen no other concerns with the resident. On 08/16/2022, Staff 1 (S1) reported they went to R1’s room CONTINUED ON LIC 809C DATED 02/17/2023 around 7:45 AM to check on the resident as resident had not come down for breakfast. Upon entry, S1 observed R1 lying on the loveseat in their room with a purple bag wrapped around R1’s head. R1 was cold to the touch and appeared to be unresponsive. 911 was called and Newport Beach Police responded. R1 was declared deceased and the Deputy Coroner arrived to examine the body. The Coroner determined there was no other trauma present on the rest of the resident’s body. R1 had been residing in the assisted living and facility checks were not required, per facility protocol, due to R1 being independent of activities of daily living. However, all staff interviewed confirm resident was being frequently checked on as the resident was acclimating to living at the facility. Interviews conducted reported R1 was last checked on at approximately 8 PM on 08/15/2022 at which time staff did not suspect any indication of suicidal ideation. R1’s death certificate was issued by Orange County Coroner’s office with an immediate cause of death listed as Asphyxiation with plastic bag over head. Based on the investigation, there is no evidence to determine lack of care and supervision resulted in R1’s death. Therefore, the allegation was determined to be unsubstantiated meaning that although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.

$3,995 a month to start — listed by the home on its own website · October 27, 2026.
The home lists this starting rate on its own website, seen October 27, 2026.
Among 77 other homes of a similar licensed size across Orange County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $5,963 a month, and the middle figure is $4,830 (n = 77 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.

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.
