How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 17 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.
An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Type of visit: Required - 1 Year
Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Laura Munoz and Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Talwinder Bains arrived on 5/14/26 to conduct the annual inspection. LPA and LPM met with Administrator, Elizabeth Suiugan who assisted during today's inspection. During today's annual inspection, the Compliance and Regulatory Enforcement Tool was used. LPM, LPA reviewed all five residents and two staff files. Medications review was conducted. LPA, LPM and staff toured the facility together to ensure the health and safety of residents in care. The areas toured included residents rooms, bathrooms, kitchen, common areas and outside area. The food supply is within compliance, 2 days of perishable and 7 days worth of non-perishable food items. All exits were unobstructed. The administrator's certificate is current. LPA, LPM checked the kitchen area for the ability to prepare and store food. LPA, LPM observed smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detector at the care home are operational. Fire extinguisher was serviced on 10/24/25 and was ready for emergency use. LPA, LPM requested a copy of the LIC500, LIC610E and current liability insurance to be sent to the Department by 5/31/26. CONTINUED ON LIC 809-C Upon arriving to the facility, LPA and LPM found no resident's in the facility. Staff, Rabecca Szabo indicated all the resident's from this home (5 residents) go across the street to another facility licensed by the licensee. LPA and LPM went to the other licensed home and found 9 resident's sitting at a dining table finishing breakfast. Only one staff was present in the home at that time. When asked how resident's were transported, staff indicated one staff will walk each resident across the street to the other home, leaving the other resident's unattended outside waiting to be brought over. LPM advised the licensee and staff that bringing resident's from home to another is a health and safety risk. Based on Title 22 regulations, resident's need to be supervised at all times. Additionally, resident's have the right to refuse leaving the facility and it is unclear if resident's are given the right to stay at this home. Lastly, bringing resident's from one home to another violates the fire clearance allotment. The licensee indicated that meals would be served to resident's at the homes they reside at and that on occasion when resident's are brought together, the facility will ensure will have sufficient staffing at all times. During medication audit, the facility does not have an organized system of tracking and maintaining resident's medications. The Department has advised the licensee that a referral to the Technical Support Program (TSP) will be submitted. Deficiencies were observed and cited per Title 22, CCR Regulations as listed on LIC 809-D. Civil penalties shall be assessed if facility does not comply with POC requirements which were issued today. Exit interview conducted. Copy of this report and appeal rights were provided.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, May 14, 2026

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 Love & Care for Elder III cost?
$4,800 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,950–$5,900. 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 17 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 54 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 = 54 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 Love & Care for Elder III take Medi-Cal?
