What does Princess Care Home #4 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 in San Jose that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $5,000 a month, and the middle figure is $4,200 (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.

Does Princess Care Home #4 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.

Who holds the license?

The license is held by Judith P. Morales, per CDSS records as of September 27, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Good Samaritan Hospital is 2.7 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

Can Princess Care Home #4 keep a resident on hospice?

Not on file — the state’s record does not list hospice care on this license. Ask: “Can a resident stay here on hospice, and under what conditions?”

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.

21 homes like this within 3 miles publish starting rates mostly between $4,050–$5,000.

  • 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).

Apr 4, 2024Complaint investigation reportUnfounded

Allegation investigated: Facility staff does not administer medication. Facility staff withholding resident's clothes.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Simi Rai conducted an unannounced visit to conclude the complaint investigation. LPA Rai met with the House Manager, Randi Cabrera and stated the purpose of today’s visit. On 8/15/2023, the Department received a complaint with the above allegations. On 8/23/2023, the Department conducted an initial investigation at the facility. Continuation on LIC 9099-C, Page 1 of 2. Unfounded Page 2 of 2. Facility staff do not administer medication On 8/9/2023, resident (R1) was moved from another facility and was admitted to this facility before 5pm. Based on review of R1’s Medication Administration Record (MAR) for August 2023, R1 was administered prescribed medications and facility staff documented resident refusing medications. Based on review of R1’s prescribed medications on Hospice Care Plan and LIC 621 Centrally Stored Medication and Destruction Record, R1 was administered medications as prescribed by physician. On 8/23/2023, the Department interviewed 3 staff at the facility. 3 Out of 3 staff stated the resident was administered medication as prescribed by physician. Based on review of R1’s Hospice notes, R1 was administered PRN medication during visits and hospice staff observed facility staff administering medication during their visits. Facility staff withholding resident’s clothes It was alleged the staff were not giving R1 clothes and restricting access to R1’s clothes. Based on review R1’s LIC 621 Client/Resident Personal Property & Valuables signed by R1’s Responsible Party, R1 had 11 personal items which were placed in the facility on 8/9/2023 and the same 11 personal items were removed on 8/21/2023 after R1 passed away. R1’s Responsible Party and facility staff signed and acknowledged each personal item. On 8/23/2023, the Department interviewed 3 staff at the facility. Two staff worked closely with R1, 2 out of 2 staff stated R1 had access to clothes in R1’s room and facility staff did not restrict R1’s access to the clothes. Staff FM1 stated the facility did not have issues of residents’ clothes being misplaced or stolen at the facility. Staff FM1 stated R1’s clothes were labeled and accounted for on LIC 621 Client/Resident Personal Property & Valuables form. The Department has completed the investigation of the above allegations. Based on interviews conducted and record reviews, the Department has found that the above allegations were UNFOUNDED, meaning that the allegations were false, could not have happened and/or are without a reasonable basis. No deficiencies cited from California Code of Regulations, Title 22. Exit interview conducted with Administrator and a copy of the report was provided. Page 2 of 2. Based on review of R1’s PRN form for August 2023, R1 was administered pain medication as needed 9 out of the 10 days R1 was admitted at the facility. R1 was moved by facility staff when R1 was provided care. Based on review of R1’s Appraisal/ Needs and Services Plan dated 8/15/2023 under "Physical/ Health" R1 "needs maximum assistance with his/her transfer from bed to wheelchair, wheelchair to bathroom and vice versa". On 8/23/2023, the Department interviewed 3 staff at the facility. Staff S1 stated “facility staff ae not bring rough when providing care to the resident”. 2 out of 3 staff stated R1 always had pain, which required two staff to assist R1. Based on the interviews conducted with clients and staff and based on observation and records review, although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the above allegations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED. No deficiencies cited from California Code of Regulations, Title 22. Exit interview conducted with Administrator and a copy of the report was provided.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Apr 4, 2024 · control 26-AS-20230815165012

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?
