What does Hollister Care Home cost?

$4,500 a month to start — listed by the home on Seniorly · September 9, 2026.

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly, seen September 9, 2026.

Among 50 other homes of a similar licensed size across Sacramento County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $5,000 a month, and the middle figure is $4,000 (n = 50 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.

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.

How people payPrivate pay, Medi-Cal waiver, SSI/SSP, veterans, insurance
  • 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 worksWhere this price comes from

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly, seen September 9, 2026.

19 homes like this within 5 miles publish starting rates mostly between $3,450–$5,850.

  • 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).

Allegation investigated: Facility staff performed g-tube feedings for resident without training or supervision from a skilled professional Staff are not adequately trained to safely assist residents with prescribed medications Staff conduct poses a risk to residents in care

Licensed Program Analyst (LPA) Cassandra Mikkelson arrived at the facility unannounced and met with Okki Kim to deliver findings for the above complaint allegation. During the investigation, LPA conducted interviews, conducted a tour of the facility, and reviewed documentation pertinent to the investigation. The results of the investigation are as follows: *** Report continued on 9099-C*** Unfounded Facility staff performed g-tube feedings for resident without training or supervision from a skilled professional Interviews conducted indicated that staff were properly trained on g-tube feedings both using videos and in person visual trainings. Staff were not conducting feedings by themselves, staff were only assisting resident R1 in the feedings as R1 was still able to do most of the preparation and feeding themselves. Records reviewed indicated that feedings were documented and were done appropriately based on R1’s physician orders. All training for g-tube feedings were documented. Therefore, the allegation facility staff performed g-tube feedings for resident without training or supervision from a skilled professional is unfounded. Staff are not adequately trained to safely assist residents with prescribed medications Interviews conducted indicated that all staff are trained on how to properly dispense medications to residents. Staff are able to have hands on training as well to help ensure ability. Facility has procedures in place for medication passes to ensure that all medications are documented and given to the correct resident at the correct time of day. Records reviewed indicated that all staff have proper initial medication training and continuing education on dispensing medications. Staff understand the importance of properly giving medication and show their knowledge in the written question sheets in their training files. Therefore, the allegation staff are not adequately trained to safely assist residents with prescribed medications is unfounded. Staff conduct poses a risk to residents in care Interview with Administrator and assistant Administrator indicated that there have been no altercations between staff to their knowledge. There also has not been any altercations between the residents or staff and residents. Interviews with Resident R2 and Staff member S1 indicated there have no altercations between staff or staff and residents. Therefore, the allegation staff conduct poses a risk to residents in care is unfounded. Based on records reviewed and interviews, LPA finds the above allegations to be UNFOUNDED- meaning that the allegations were false, could not have happened and/or is without reasonable basis. Exit interview conducted with the Administrator. Copy of report was given to facility.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Apr 9, 2026 · control 59-AS-20260212170248

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.

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. Can we read the dementia care disclosure and discuss how daily support works?
  4. What could change whether someone can stay here?
  5. Can we see a bedroom and share a meal during a visit?
