$7,000 a month to start — listed by the home on Seniorly · September 9, 2026.

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living shared bedroom, seen September 9, 2026.

Among 8 other homes of a similar licensed size across Marin County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $5,150 to $7,250 a month, and the middle figure is $6,000 (n = 8 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 Haven House of San Rafael 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.

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 worksWhere this price comes from

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living shared bedroom, seen September 9, 2026.

8 homes like this within 8 miles publish starting rates mostly between $5,000–$9,600.

  • 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).

Aug 1, 2025Complaint investigation reportSubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Facility staff are using bedrails to restrain resident Personal Rights

At approximately 9:00AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Felias arrived unannounced to initiate a Complaint Investigation regarding the above allegations and met with House Manager, Helen Hocog. Licensee, Harry Van Meines, arrived during visit at approximately 12:00PM. During the course of the investigation, the Department requested and reviewed documents, conducted interviews, and made observations. There is an allegation of “Facility staff are using bedrails to restrain resident," and "Personal Rights." Complainant alleged the following: Resident 1 (R1) doesn't want to be put in bed at 7:30PM and wants to go to bed at 10:00PM. Facility put a camera and motion sensor in R1's room to monitor them, and facility staff have added a second railing to R1's bed to prevent them from getting out of bed. Photo provided to LPA showed a resident's bed with two half rails pulled up. The half rails were shown to be affixed at the top and lower halves of the bed with a small gap in the middle. During visit on 08/01/2025, Interview conducted with House Manager and Staff Member 1 (S1) revealed that they use the Continued on LIC9099C Substantiated Continued from LIC9099 second half bed rail and the gait belt as a safety precaution for R1. Per interviews, the gait belt is used as a safety precaution for R1 when staff are doing other tasks such as cooking or providing care to other residents. LPA was informed that the video camera has no audio and was placed as an additional safety precaution to notify Night Shift staff when R1 gets up at night. Interviews further revealed that R1's family was verbally notified of the camera/video monitoring. Interview conducted with R1 revealed that they preferred to go to bed at 10:00PM but usually get put into bed at 9PM. Per R1, they are unable to get out of bed on their own due to their recent injury and would require assistance to leave. LPA conducted a walkthrough of the facility and observed the following: R1's bed had two half bed rails creating a full bed rail (picture taken). LPA also observed that R1 had a white gait belt around their wheelchair. Review of R1's file showed that they are not receiving hospice services at this time and do not have a physician's order for use of bed rails or for use of a gait belt. There is also no documentation in the file regarding camera/video monitoring for R1's room. Based on record review, interviews conducted, and observations made, these allegations are Substantiated. A finding that the complaint allegation is Substantiated means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met. Deficiencies are cited from the California Code of Regulations (CCRs), and/or the Health and Safety Code. Failure to correct the cited deficiencies, on or before the Plan of Correction (POC) due date, may result in a civil penalty assessment. Exit interview conducted.

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.

Who holds the licence

Haven House LLC, licensed since 2020, operates 2 licensed homes in California. Running more than one home is common and is neither good nor bad on its own.

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?
