  • 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.
  • 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.

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

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 18 small homes and similar homes within 5 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.

Daily life

Jan 17, 2023Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Resident sustained unexplained bruising while in care

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Rebecca Ruiz conducted an unannounced complaint investigation visit to conduct follow up and deliver findings regarding the above-mentioned allegation. LPA identified herself to, was greeted by, and explained the purpose of the visit to Caregiver Milagros "Mila" Caganap. During today's visit, LPA observed residents in care and interviewed staff. The Department’s investigation consisted of interviews with staff and outside sources, review of records, and a tour of the facility. It was alleged that a resident sustained unexplained bruising while in care. Review of resident 1’s (R1) medical records dated March 24, 2020, revealed that R1 had major cognitive disorder, was non-ambulatory, and was able to follow direction and communicate needs. Medical records revealed that R1 began receiving hospice services in June 2021. Continued on LIC9099-C page... Unsubstantiated Interviews and review of hospice care notes revealed that during a hospice care visit, hospice staff observed small bruises on R1’s left jaw and back in September 2021, and healing bruises on R1’s left eye and left jaw, and a small bruise on R1’s left forearm in October 2021. Interviews revealed that facility staff were not aware of the bruises observed in September 2021, and denied hitting or causing R1’s bruising. Interviews and hospice care notes revealed that a care conference was conducted to discuss R1’s bruising between facility staff, the Licensee, R1’s family, and hospice staff in October 2021. Interviews revealed that R1’s family stated that R1 could have obtained the bruises by moving around in the bed and hitting the bed rails. The Licensee stated that R1’s sedative medication was not working and R1 was banging their head against the bed rails. Interviews revealed that facility staff were not administering R1’s sedative medications as prescribed due to concerns that R1 would be overly sedated. Hospice staff provided staff with education regarding administering medication as prescribed and padding was placed over the bed rails to prevent further bruising during the care conference in October 2021. Interviews with outside sources did not reveal any concerns regarding R1’s care. Interviews with skilled medical professionals revealed that bruising was possible after an episode of agitation and hitting against the bed rails. Review of hospice care notes revealed that no new bruising was observed after October 2021. The Department was unable to interview R1 due to R1 passing away. The Department has investigated the above-mentioned allegation and based on interviews and records review, the preponderance of the evidence has not been met, therefore, this allegation is deemed unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted with Caregiver Mila Caganap, to whom a copy of this report and the Licensee Appeal Rights (LIC9058 01/16) were provided via hard copy.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Jan 17, 2023 · control 08-AS-20211005085957

LPA identified herself to, was greeted by, and explained the purpose of the visit to Caregiver Milagros "Mila" Caganap. LPA spoke to Licensee Leonor Carmona via phone during the visit. During a complaint investigation, interviews with outside sources and records review revealed that staff did not administer medication as prescribed.

Type of visit: Required - 1 Year

Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Denise Powell and Licensing Program Analyst Amy Domingo conducted an unannounced Required 1 - Year Visit. The facility file was reviewed prior to the visit. LPM and LPA met with and were allowed entry by caregiver Milagraos Caganap and we discussed the purpose of the visit. Licensee Leonor Carmona arrived during the visit. All staff present have a current criminal record clearance. LPM and LPA conducted a tour of the facility, both inside and outside and observed the residents in care. In accordance with the Department’s Infection Control, LPM and LPA provided technical assistance, evaluated, and observed the facility's implementation of their mitigation plan to include disinfection, testing surveillance, and screening protocols as well as the use of personal protective equipment. No deficiencies were cited on this date. LPA provided additional guidance on posting signs regarding infection control, hand washing, cough etiquette. Also informed Leonora of the Provider Information call that is up coming and availability of PPE. An exit interview was conducted with the licensee, to whom a copy of this report and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 01/16) were provided.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, May 24, 2022

“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 Carmona's Residential Care cost?

$4,300 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,500–$5,300. 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 18 small homes and similar homes within 5 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 51 other homes of a similar licensed size in San Diego that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,000 to $6,000 a month, and the middle figure is $5,000 (n = 51 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 Carmona's Residential Care 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 Carmona, Leonor P., per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women and Newborns is 1 mile away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.
