What does Skypark Manor cost?

$3,100 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $2,400–$3,950. 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 communities with 50 or more beds within 10 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 10 other homes of a similar licensed size in Sacramento that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $4,695 a month, and the middle figure is $4,000 (n = 10 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. What Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver covers in a care home.

Does Skypark Manor take Medi-Cal?

On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this home appears on the DHCS participation list, August 9, 2026. Confirm eligibility and current participation with the program. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.

Who holds the license?

The license is held by Skypark Manor, LLC, per CDSS records as of September 27, 2026.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Kaiser Foundation Hospital - South Sacramento is 2.3 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

Can Skypark Manor keep a resident on hospice?

  • Medi-Cal Assisted Living WaiverThis home appears on the DHCS participation list, August 9, 2026. Confirm eligibility and current participation with the program.

  • 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.

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 worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 17 communities with 50 or more beds within 10 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.

17 homes like this within 10 miles publish starting rates mostly between $3,400–$5,450.

  • 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).

Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Kevin Gould and Cynthia Tamayo conducted an unannounced case management visit at facility on 4/9/25 to conclude the investigation of the Resident 1’s (R1) death that occurred on 1/4/2024. LPAs Tamayo and Gould met with facility staff, Rabindar Singh and Assistant Administrator, Susan McCloure and together discussed the investigation details. On 4/3/2025, the department obtained a copy of R1’s death certificate from the Sacramento County Office of Vital Records. R1’s date of death is listed as 1/4/2024, and the cause of death is hanging. There were no other significant conditions contributing to his death. Multiple staff denied R1’s made prior attempts to commit suicide, had any changes in behavior, or verbalized any comments to suggest that R1 was going to take their own life. Medication Technicians stated they administered R1‘s medications. R1’s medication records documented he was receiving his medication as prescribed. The Department investigations revealed multiple staff interacted with R1 earlier that day and did not notice any changes in his behavior or anything concerning before R1's death. Staff conducted client rounds every two hours and R1 did not require an additional level of supervision. Multiple staff reported it was not unusual for R1 to spend time outside during the day. Report Continued on LIC 809-C Based on the interviews conducted during the investigation process, records review, video footage, and statements obtained during the investigation process, the department did not observe any violations of Title 22 regulations.

Feb 27, 2025Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Facility staff do not provide transportation for resident to their medical appointments. Facility staff do not provide meal to meet residents' dietery needs. Facility staff do not ensure that the facility is free of pests. Facility staff do not respond to resident calls in a timely manner. Illegal eviction.

On 2/27/2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Arvin Villanueva arrived unannounced at this facility to conduct a follow up complaint visit regarding the allegations noted above. LPA met with Susan McClure, Assistant Administrator (AAd) and stated the purpose of this visit. Throughout this investigation, this LPA conducted interviews of relevant persons, record reviews of relevant documents and facility observation. Allegation: facility staff do not provide transportation for resident to their medical appointments. The investigation into this allegation consisted of interviews and record reviews. The Resident Van Appointments log, covering the period from 12/12/2024, to 12/31/2024, indicates that transportation is offered to residents Monday through Friday. However, there are several limitations to this service, such as the restriction that no appointments are scheduled after 2:00 PM, and that only four appointments per day are available. Additionally, lab appointments can only be scheduled before 8:00 AM, and there are activity outings on Thursdays. {1 of 7} Unsubstantiated In the bathroom inside R1’s unit, several issues were identified. The bathtub exhibited what appeared to be a water stain or mildew, marked by a reddish-brown discoloration. Furthermore, the shower faucet was observed to be leaking, which prompted LPA to attempt to turn off the water. However, the faucet knobs were already turned to the "off" position, and water continued to leak . Additionally, the ceiling above the shower displayed a water stain visible through the paint. Further observations were made during an unrelated complaint visit on 12/12/2024. LPA, accompanied by Assistant Administrator Susan McClure (AAd), inspected multiple resident units. In resident unit #220, a resident reported a ceiling leak during a rainstorm. The leak was coming from the area near the sprinkler, which was located near the window. AAd took photos of the leak and confirmed that it was reported to maintenance. Similarly, in resident unit #120, LPA observed a sink that was leaking when the faucet was turned on. Despite previous attempts by maintenance staff to fix the issue, the sink continued to leak, with water dripping from the pipe under the sink into a basin. An interview with a witness (W1) on 1/29/2025, further substantiated the allegations of disrepair. W1 confirmed noticing mold in R1's bathroom during their visit and stated that an email had been sent to the facility manager requesting that the shower be scrubbed with an anti-mold solution. Based on these observations, combined with reports from residents, there is a preponderance of evidence to SUBSTANTIATE this allegation. A finding that the complaint was Substantiated meant that the allegation was valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard had been met. The following deficiencies were cited on the following LIC 809-D per Title 22 Regulations, Division 6 and Health and Safety Codes. Exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report and appeal rights were provided. Allegation: facility staff do not provide transportation for resident to their medical appointments (con't). Interviews conducted on 12/31.2024 revealed that there may be communication challenges between the staff and R1 regarding transportation needs. Staff interview stated that R1 has not consistently provided staff with adequate information about appointment dates, and there have been instances where R1 refused to go to scheduled appointments. This lack of communication could be contributing to difficulties in arranging transportation. Further review of R1's care notes revealed that on 12/5/2024, R1 initially refused to go with the driver for a scheduled appointment, only to later inform the driver that R1 was ready to go. On 12/3/2024, R1 notified staff about an upcoming appointment on 12/11/2024, but was informed that the driver would not be available on that date. R1 expressed that it was the driver’s responsibility to resolve this issue, indicating some frustration with the transportation arrangement. While these records suggest occasional communication challenges and instances where R1 refused or delayed transportation, there is no preponderance of evidence to substantiate the claim that staff are not providing transportation for R1's medical appointments. Therefore, this allegation was UNSUBSTANTIATED. ********************************************************************************************************************************** Allegation: Facility staff do not ensure that facility is free of pest. The investigation into the allegation that facility staff do not ensure that facility is free of pest consisted of interviews and record reviews. Based on a review of various records and interviews conducted with staff, there are mixed findings regarding the effectiveness of pest control measures at the facility. According to the contract with Clark Pest Control, the technician is required to inspect both the interior and exterior of the facility twice monthly, addressing any pest activity and providing inspection reports after each service. The service scope includes addressing insect issues such as roaches and bed bugs, as well as preventive measures for rodents. Extra services are also available upon request. {2 of 7} Allegation: Facility staff do not ensure that facility is free of pest (con't). The reviewed records from Clark Pest Control's service reports between 6/24/2024 and 12/26/2024, confirm that the facility has received pest control services at least twice a month. During these visits, technicians addressed primarily insect issues and took preventive measures for rodents. For example, on 12/26/2024, the technician inspected both the interior and exterior of the facility, replaced non-toxic monitors, and reported minimal insect activity. The technician also treated the kitchen and baited the hallway to control cockroaches. However, it was noted that a service attempt in room #120, occupied by Resident_1 (R1), was refused by the R1, who did not want chemicals used in the room. This refusal was recorded in both the service report and the pest sighting log, which also noted a cockroach sighting in R1’s room on 12/26/2024. The Pest Sighting Log from 8/17/2023 to 12/26/2024, tracks sightings of pests reported by staff and/or residents. The log shows that sightings of cockroaches in R1’s room were logged, with the technician addressing these sightings on 12/26/2024, despite R1’s refusal of service. According to the log, no further actions were taken to address the pests in R1’s room after the refusal. An interview with Staff_1 (S1) revealed that S1 accompanied the Clark Pest Control technician to R1’s room on 12/26/2024. S1 confirmed that R1 refused the service, citing concerns about chemicals in the room. S1 further stated that no additional attempts had been made to address the cockroach issue in R1’s room following the refusal. The records and interviews suggest that the facility is generally proactive in addressing pest control, with services provided regularly by Clark Pest Control. It is unclear whether further steps are being taken to respect the resident's preferences while also ensuring the facility remains pest-free. This could potentially impact the overall effectiveness of pest control measures at the facility. Based on the information gathered, this allegation was UNSUBSTANTIATED. ********************************************************************************************************************************** Allegation: Illegal Eviction. The investigation into this allegation consisted of interviews and record reviews. On 1/29/2025, LPA conducted interviews regarding an alleged illegal eviction of (R1) from the current facility. {3 of 7} Allegation: Illegal Eviction (con't). According to Witness_1 (W1), R1 was served an eviction notice by the facility on 1/17/2025, which gave R1 until 2/16/2025, to vacate the premises. W1 expressed concerns about the difficulty of finding an alternative placement for R1, as this facility was the only one willing to admit R1. W1 added that R1 was willing to move to either Sacramento or Contra Costa County and that R1 was actively trying to help find another placement. However, W1 acknowledged that R1 could be "colorful" in R1’s communication, making the process more complicated. W1 further noted that R1 had financial difficulties from the start, which contributed to the eviction, as R1 had not paid rent since R1’s admission in October 2024. Despite attempts by W1 to reach R1's social worker, no response was received. In a separate interview, R1 confirmed that R1 received the eviction notice hand-delivered by facility staff Sherry Richardson and Susan McClure. R1 disclosed that R1 had attempted to make payments on 12/27/2024, and 1/6/2025, but was informed that the business manager, following instructions from the administrator, would not accept the payments. R1 was unsure why payments were denied and could not provide evidence of the checks R1 attempted to submit. Interview with business manager confirmed that the refusal to accept payment was due to a verbal notice of eviction from the meeting held in December 2024. Susan McClure, the Assistant Administrator, provided additional context regarding the eviction during an interview on 12/31/2024. She explained that the eviction was being pursued due to R1's failure to pay rent and R1’s problematic behaviors, including refusing care, medication, and food. McClure noted an incident where R1 allegedly attempted to strike staff with a grabber, though no injuries occurred. Furthermore, Susan indicated that R1 had made inappropriate accusations towards male staff members when they entered R1’s room. A record review of the eviction notice revealed that it was based on R1's arrears of $6,080.28, with no rent payments made since R1’s admission. The notice was hand-delivered to R1 by Richardson and McClure and also emailed to W1. The eviction notice was accompanied by an invoice detailing the outstanding rent amount. {4 of 7} Allegation: Illegal eviction (con't). Additionally, a meeting held on 12/5/2024, between facility staff, W1, and R1 revealed that R1 was dissatisfied with R1’s living situation and that nonpayment of rent was a key factor in the decision to evict R1. During the meeting, R1 was offered a payment plan but expressed frustration with the facility, alleging that external forces were conspiring against R1. It was also noted that R1's money had been spent on personal purchases, such as Amazon orders. Based on the gathered information, the facility's actions appear to be within the bounds of the eviction process, as they followed protocol for notifying both R1 and R1’s social worker. Based on the gathered information, this allegation was UNSUBSTANTIATED. ********************************************************************************************************************************** Allegation: Facility staff do not provide meal to meet residents' dietary needs. The investigation into this allegation consisted of interviews and record reviews. On 12/31/2024, an interview was conducted with Assistant Administrator Susan regarding the allegation that facility staff do not provide meals to meet residents' dietary needs. Susan explained that staff are aware of residents' dietary restrictions and preferences, maintaining a list to ensure proper food delivery. She emphasized that they always follow these dietary guidelines and that they have a binder that staff use for reference and training. Susan also noted that some residents, like R1, may refuse the food provided, but this does not indicate a failure to meet their dietary needs. On 1/29/2025, LPA Arvin Villanueva conducted an interview with R1 concerning food service. R1 confirmed that food trays are brought to her daily. According to a review of R1’s food preferences on file, R1 primarily eats vegetables, refrains from eating most meats, but consumes chicken, turkey, and eggs. Additionally, R1 enjoys drinking wine. There is no indication in the records that R1 requires a special diet. Further review of R1’s care notes revealed that R1 often refuses the food tray delivered to R1’s room and does not eat in the dining room. These notes, however, did not suggest any failure on the part of staff in meeting R1’s dietary needs, as no special diet was prescribed. Additionally, R1’s care plan, dated 9/20/2024, and ALWP assessment, dated 6/4/2024, both confirmed that R1 does not require any special dietary accommodations. Based on this information, there is no preponderance of evidence to suggest that the facility staff do not meet R1’s dietary needs, therefore, this allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. {5 of 7} Allegation: Facility staff do not respond to resident calls in a timely manner. The investigation into this allegation consisted of interviews, observation, and record reviews. The assistant administrator, Susan, in an interview conducted on 12/31/2024, indicated that staff generally respond to calls in a timely manner. However, she explained that R1’s selective preferences for certain staff, who are not always on schedule, may contribute to delays in care. Susan noted that R1 only allows a few specific staff members to assist R1, which can affect response times when those staff members are unavailable. Additionally, at times, R1 would not let staff turn off R1’s pendant until they are finished helping R1. Further interviews with staff members provided additional context. Staff member (S2) indicated that R1 has been difficult, citing instances where R1 screamed at staff or accused them of stealing R1’s mail. S2 suggested that R1 tends to call during busy periods, when care staff are attending to other residents, and that R1 doesn't always call when staff have time available. In contrast, S3 highlighted that, while the assigned caregiver may be busy, other staff members usually respond to R1’s call. S3 mentioned that R1 often leaves R1’s pendant on until staff completes the task with R!, and noted that the ideal response time for calls is within 10 minutes, although this may vary if staff are busy with other residents. S4 described the process of responding to pendant calls, where staff are expected to arrive within 2-3 minutes. However, S4 mentioned that R1 often does not turn off R1’s pendant until the staff has fully completed the task R1 requested, which could contribute to longer pendant light durations. Record reviews from R1's care notes also reveal a pattern of complaints regarding unresponsiveness to calls. For example, on 10/13/2024, R1 complained of not being helped when pressing the call light, although caregivers stated they had responded. On 10/25/2024, R1 accused the front desk staff of ignoring her calls, which was explained by the fact that the front desk staff were busy with other duties. Similarly, on 12/3/2024, R1 expressed frustration when a preferred caregiver was unavailable, and only caregivers R1 did not like responded. R1 has also been noted to scream when there is a delay in response time, even if it is only 2-3 minutes. {6 of 7} Allegation: Facility staff do not respond to resident calls in a timely manner (con't). A review of the call light/pendant response data further illustrates significant variability in response times, ranging from as little as 6 seconds to as long as 1 hour and 27 minutes. Staff interviews corroborated that R1’s refusal to turn off the pendant light until staff have finished their tasks with R1 may account for this wide range in response time. On January 29, 2025, during a complaint follow-up visit, the LPA conducted a test to measure the response time to R1's pendant call. Using a timer, the LPA noted that it took 19 minutes and 23 seconds for staff to respond to R1’s call, which was recorded after R1 pressed the pendant button. Staff member explained that she had just arrived at work when responding to the call. In conclusion, the allegation that facility staff do not respond to resident calls in a timely manner appears to be UNSUBSTANTIATED by the data and interviews. However, factors such as R1’s selective preferences for caregivers and R1’s tendency to leave the pendant on until tasks are fully completed contribute to the extended response times. A finding of unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened the preponderance of evidence does not prove it. No deficiencies were cited as a result of this visit. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided. {7 of 7}the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Feb 27, 2025 · control 27-AS-20241223152310

Allegation investigated: Facility staff made sexual advances to resident in care.

On 2/27/25, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Arvin Villanueva arrived unannounced to conduct a follow-up investigation into an allegation noted above. LPA met with Susan McClure, Assistant Administrator (AAd) and stated the purpose of this visit. The investigation into the above allegation consisted of interviews and record reviews. Through interview with Resident_1 (R1), who reported incidents occurring on the weekend of January 26-28, 2025. The complaint indicated that sexual advances took place on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, though during subsequent interviews, it was clarified that only Saturday and Sunday were mentioned in the initial email from R1. {1 of 2} Unsubstantiated Interviews revealed that R1 described multiple allegations, including incidents involving a male staff member entering R1’s room unannounced. However, R1 did not report any claims of sexual advances or inappropriate touching by the staff member, as initially alleged. Interviews conducted with R1 indicated that R1 denied any accusations of sexual assault, providing no further evidence to substantiate these claims. Additionally, through interview, R1 mentioned that a female caregiver was present during the alleged incidents, which may further contradict the notion of inappropriate behavior occurring in isolation. Further interviews into the staffing schedule revealed that the accused male staff member did not work on Friday or Saturday, according to information provided by staff member Susan McClure. Given the lack of corroborating evidence, the inconsistency in the timeline of the alleged incidents, and the confirmation of staff schedules, there is no preponderance of evidence to substantiate the allegation of sexual advances by the accused staff member. Therefore, the allegation was found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. Exit interview was conducted with Susan McClure and a copy of this report was provided. {2 of 2}the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Feb 27, 2025 · control 27-AS-20250127144608

Allegation investigated: Staff are not preventing resident from harassing other residents in care.

On 2/6/2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Arvin Villanueva arrived unannounced at this facility to conduct a follow up complaint visit regarding the allegation noted above. LPA met with Susan McClure, Assistant Administrator, and stated the purpose of this visit. The investigation into the above allegation consisted of interviews and record reviews. A review of Resident1’s (R1) documents indicated several instances of agitation and confusion, consistent with their diagnosis (D1) dementia and Alzheimer’s. These behaviors included occasional aggressive actions, such as trying to hit other residents, shouting, and entering other residents' rooms mistakenly. However, there was no consistent evidence that R1 intentionally harassed other residents or that the staff failed to intervene appropriately. {1 of 2} Unsubstantiated Interviews with care staff (S1 – S6), including those who have worked closely with R1, consistently described R1 as a kind person who does not have malicious intent towards others. Staff members reported that R1’s actions were largely a result of their cognitive impairments and confusion, which led R1 to occasionally enter other residents' rooms by mistake or engage in disruptive behaviors, like shouting. R1’s inability to remember basic facts and their tendency to wander were contributing factors to their confusion. Additionally, interviews did not indicate that R1 had physically harmed or verbally abused other residents with intent. Interviews also revealed that R1 had a history of confusion with room locations, particularly with a Resident2 (R2), who had previously complained about R1 entering their room. However, R2 had relocated to another part of the facility, and since that move, there had been no further complaints. Also staff had stated that they actively worked to manage R1’s behaviors by providing constant supervision and assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), including showering, meals, and ensuring R1’s safety while wandering the facility. Although R1’s behaviors were occasionally disruptive, there was no evidence that staff ignored or failed to address these issues. Staff were aware of R1’s condition and took measures to offer R2 another location to move to within the facility. Based on the information gathered, the allegation that staff are not preventing R1 from harassing other residents in care was found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding of unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened the preponderance of evidence does not prove it. Exit interview was conducted with Susan McClure and a copy of this report and appeal rights were provided. {2 of 2}the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Feb 6, 2025 · control 27-AS-20241017115504

Allegation investigated: Facility installed a surveillance device in a resident's room without consent.

On 12/31/2024, at 2pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Arvin Villanueva arrived at this facility to conduct a follow up complaint visit regarding the allegation noted above. LPA met with Susan McClure and stated the purpose of this visit. The investigation included interviews with relevant parties, observation of the facility, including resident rooms and common areas, and a review of pertinent records, such as resident admission agreement and care notes. Interview with an outside agency reported inspecting R1’s room and found no evidence of surveillance devices. Interview with facility staff revelaed that surveillance cameras were installed only in common areas for monitoring purposes and that no cameras were placed in resident rooms. From the interviews with residents, one resident suspected that the smoke detector in their room contain a hidden camera. R1 informed LPA that they were becoming suspicious after returning from a trip and pointed to the device installed at the ceiling, which had been partially wrapped in paper, as evidence of hidden camera. {1 of 2} Unfounded LPA and facility staff conducted facility observation which include inspections of 11 resident units. Of all the resident units were inspected, LPA did not find any clear evidence of surveillance devices, including cameras. Devices that were observed installed at the ceilings of resident units were identified as smoke detectors and sprinkler systems. However, the only visible surveillance cameras that were observed were in common areas, including hallways and dining rooms, but not in private units or bathrooms. Record review of Admission Agreement explicitly states that no surveillance devices are installed in private rooms. The agreement also specifies that residents would be notified prior to the implementation of such devices in private areas. Based on interviews, facility observations, and document reviews, the allegation that Skypark Manor staff installed a surveillance device in resident's room without consent is UNFOUNDED. The devices in question were identified as standard safety equipment, and no evidence was found to support the claim. Note that a finding that is unfounded means that the allegation is false, could not have happened, or is without a reasonable basis. No deficiencies were cited during this visit. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Dec 31, 2024 · control 27-AS-20241209094904

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.

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?
