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

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 8 small 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).

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

Daily life here is not on file yet. Most small homes haven’t published it, and that says nothing about the home.

During the course of the annual inspection it was determined that the admission agreements were out of compliance and a Plan of Correction was generated stipulating the admission agreements were to be updated so as to comply with the California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 22, Division 6 and submitted to LPA Jensen via email by 3/30/23. The new admission agreements were not received by the due date. The Licensee showed LPA Jensen that the admission agreements were drafted but not have yet been signed. The Licensee advised that the new admission agreement drafts were faxed to the Department but the Licensee advised that the fax transmittal confirmations were not available at the facility. While there were two separate citations issued for clauses in the admission agreements that were a violation of regulations both citations required the same Plan of Correction which is new, revised admission agreements signed by responsible parties for all residents, therefore only 1 civil penalty is being assessed for failure to correct a deficiency by the Plan of Correction due date. Also during the course of the site visit LPA Jensen tested the water temperature in the bathroom located in the bedroom hallway. The water temperature measured at 100.5 degrees Fahrenheit at the highest reading, this falls outside of the required range of 105-120 degrees.

The state’s totals for this licenseSince 2012, as the state’s facility page counts them

State visits on file: 15
Total complaints: 2
Substantiated allegations: 0
Type A citations: 0
Type B citations: 0

These are the state’s own totals for this license since 2012, per CDSS records. The state counts them apart from the documents above, and they can differ from what those documents show; the documents say what each visit found. One complaint can contain several allegations.

Compare with homes the same size

	This home	Typical
Type A citations	0	0
Type B citations	0	0
Substantiated allegations	0	0
Total complaints	2	0

“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.

Quick answers about Elite Elderly Care Home

Is Elite Elderly Care Home licensed?

The state lists this license as “Licensed,” per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

How many residents is Elite Elderly Care Home licensed for?

Is Elite Elderly Care Home still open?

This license was on the CDSS roster as of November 11, 2026.

What does Elite Elderly Care Home cost?

$3,900 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,200–$4,800. This home’s own rate is not on file. Ask: “What is the all-in monthly rate, and what would push it higher?”

Among 6 other homes of a similar licensed size in Elk Grove that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $5,000 a month, and the middle figure is $3,750 (n = 6 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 Elite Elderly Care Home 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 Calagui, Lani, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Methodist Hospital of Sacramento is 2.1 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

Hospice care is approved on this license, covering up to 3 residents, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.
