- 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 A Place for Mom, seen September 9, 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 dispense medications as prescribed
On 07/15/2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julie Florio arrived unannounced to deliver complaint 21-AS-20250425105956 investigation findings regarding the above allegation and met with Shelley Reyes, Administrator. Reporting Party (RP) alleges that the facility staff did not dispense medications as prescribed for Resident 1 (R1). LPA Florio conducted a 10-day complaint investigation visit on 04/28/2025 and obtained documents, made observations, and conducted interviews. During this visit it was revealed through R1’s Centrally Stored Medication Record and an interview with Staff 1 (S1) that the facility received R1’s medications on 04/20/2025. S1 stated that the prescription “said to hold the medication if the blood pressure was at a certain level, but we did not have an order to check a daily blood pressure.” S1 attempted to reach the physician to obtain a separate order for blood pressure monitoring and was unsuccessful. Continued on LIC9099C... Substantiated Continued from LIC9099... S1 then left a note for Staff 2 (S2) to follow up with R1’s physician. There are no records of S2 following up. S1 stated that medication was held until orders could be obtained. On 5/28/2025, an interview with R1’s treating physician revealed that R1 was in stage four terminal heart failure and had pneumonia. Additionally, the physician stated that they did not believe that the medications in question would have changed R1’s terminal prognosis. However, during today’s complaint investigation visit, an interview with Staff 3 (S3) revealed that no log was maintained showing staff observed R1 for swelling or other symptoms of fluid retention. Based on interviews and record review, the facility was unable to provide proof that staff followed through with obtaining blood pressure parameter orders or that staff dispensed medications as prescribed, (see LIC9099D). Based on interviews conducted and records obtained, the allegation that the facility staff did not dispense medications as prescribed is SUBSTANTIATED. A finding that a complaint allegation is SUBSTANTIATED means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met.

Allegation investigated: Staff do not prevent a resident from causing harm to other residents while in care
On 7/6/2023 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tobola arrived unannounced for the purpose of delivering complaint investigation findings and was greeted by Executive Director, Shelley Reyes. LPA, interviewed staff, reviewed resident records and made observations during the course of the investigation. Complaint alleges staff do not prevent a resident (R1) from causing harm to other residents while in care. Upon review of R1’s Physician’s Report and Pre-Admission Appraisal, there was no indication of aggressive or combative behaviors upon admission. Based on a review of daily progress notes for resident (R1), LPA found that several months after R1’s admission to the facility, R1 began showing behaviors of inappropriate verbal comments towards staff. R1’s behaviors progressively became more frequent and had been observed in common areas open to other residents. The facility had recorded and reported to CCLD of several incidents in which R1 had become verbally and physically aggressive, leading to an incident in which R1 had been observed yelling and breaking dishware in the dining area. However, based on a review of incident reports; and interviews with the Executive Director and Care Cooridinator (S1), there were no indications of R1 causing physical harm or hurting another residents in care. Continued onto LIC9099-C Unsubstantiated Based on interviews with Executive Director, LPA found that an updated care plan was implemented to mediate R1’s behaviors. In addition, LPA interviewed Care Coordinator (S1) who indicated that on multiple occasions; the facility had notified and spoken with R1’s responsible party, attempting to find a more a appropriate level of care for R1 as staff observed R1's behaviors more frequently. S1 also stated that they assisted R1's responsible party with identifying several alternate living options for R1. Lastly, the facility had come to an agreement with R1's family and submitted a legal eviction notice for R1 on 4/20/2023 to reinsure R1 was placed at a higher level of care. The facility and staff were aware of R1’s changes of behavior and attempted multiple interventions to address concerns ultimately leading to R1 being transferred to a higher level of care. Due to a lack of corroborating evidence the allegation, staff do not prevent a resident from causing harm to other residents while in care is found to be 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 that the alleged violation occurred.

Among 8 other homes of a similar licensed size across Solano County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,475 to $4,448 a month, and the middle figure is $4,095 (n = 8 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.
