Quick answers about Care and Comfort Living

Is Care and Comfort Living licensed?

The state lists this license as “Licensed,” per CDSS records as of September 13, 2026.

How many residents is Care and Comfort Living licensed for?

6 residents — a small home, per CDSS records as of September 13, 2026.

Has Care and Comfort Living been cited?

0 Type A and 0 Type B citations, per CDSS records as of September 13, 2026.

Is Care and Comfort Living still open?

This license was on the CDSS roster as of September 28, 2026.

What does Care and Comfort Living cost?

$5,000 a month to start is typical in Los Angeles County, likely $3,650–$6,850. This home’s own rate is not on file. Ask: “What is the all-in monthly rate, and what would push it higher?”

Too few nearby homes publish a rate, so this is the typical starting rate 218 small homes publish in Los Angeles County, with a wider likely range. This home’s own rate is not on file.

Among 228 other homes of a similar licensed size across Los Angeles County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,000 to $6,300 a month, and the middle figure is $5,000 (n = 228 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 Care and Comfort Living 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 Care and Comfort Living, per CDSS records as of September 13, 2026.

Can Care and Comfort Living 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?”

  • 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.
  • Long-term care insuranceMost policies pay for licensed care homes. Ask what paperwork the home provides for claims.
  • 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 worksWhy this is a county figure

Too few nearby homes publish a rate, so this is the typical starting rate 218 small homes publish in Los Angeles County, with a wider likely range. 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).

Type of visit: Prelicensing

At 8:30am on 8/3/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Haner-Tomasko arrived at the scheduled time to conduct the facilities pre-licensing inspection. LPA met with Licensee Murad Muradyan announced who he is and the reason for the visit. Licensee and LPA conducted a full tour of the facility. This facility is a single-story residential home with three dual occupancy resident bedrooms and two full shared bathrooms. The bedroom to the north west corner of the facility, designated as Bedroom #3 on the facility sketch, is cleared by fire for bedridden. All bedrooms have required furnishings and lighting. Both bathrooms have grab bars at the toilets and showers, and nonskid devices in each shower. Upon entering the facility is a large living room with couches, games, a TV, and a fireplace with screen for resident safety. Licensee states they do not plan to use the fireplace. Off of the living room is the kitchen and dining room. LPA noted that the backyard has seating and shade for residents and visitors. The facility has wired dual carbon monoxide and smoke detectors in each bedroom and hallway leading to bedrooms that are all working. LPA noted that the facility is clean and in good repair with no obstructions in hallways, doorways or exits. There is a ramp leading out the sliding glass door off the dining room to the backyard with handrails. There is also a ramp on the side yard leading to the backyard, perimeter gate and bedroom #3 with handrails. LPA requested the Licensee install a handrail at the front door stairs and handrail leading from the perimeter gate at the west side of the facility down the incline pathway to the sidewalk. A locking cabinet for medication and record storage is in the kitchen. LPA noted the exterior doors have audible devices to monitor them, LPA asked Licensee to add one to the perimeter gate. (Continued on LIC809-C) LPA observed a fire extinguisher near the kitchen that was in the green compression range, purchased on 4/22/2026. LPA tested facility hot water at 106.3°F, within regulation temperatures 105-120°F. The facility has a full first aid kit and will obtain a sharps container. At the north east side of the property is a detached accessory dwelling unit (ADU) that is not part of the fire clearance and is not licensed by Community Care Licensing (CCL). From the backyard of the facility there is access to a door at the back of the ADU that gives access to the laundry room used by this facility. There are no doors leading from the laundry room in to the ADU. LPA noted the exterior door to the laundry room is lockable for resident safety. Licensee and LPA conducted a full review of the pre-licensing Compliance and Regulatory Enforcement (CARE) tools and Comp III training tools. This report will be sent to the Centralized Application Bureau (CAB). The Licensee will be notified by the CAB Analyst when their license has been approved. The Licensee is not allowed to begin operating until they have been notified that the license has been approved by the CAB Analyst. Failure to comply could affect approval of the license.

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?
