How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 19 homes with 7 to 49 beds and similar homes 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.
- 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.

Allegation investigated: Due to lack of supervision, residents physically assault other residents Staff threatened authorized representative of eviction Staff did not do a proper reassessment of resident
On 7/9/2026 at 2:35 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Bernadette Allen conducted an unannounced visit to deliver findings for the above allegations. LPA identified herself and met with Administrator Mary Aguirre, who was informed of the purpose of the visit. On June 11, 2026, at 3:55 PM, the Department requested the staff and client roster for the Assisted Living buildings dated June 10, 2026. Ms. Aguirre was informed that, due to time constraints, the Department would need to return to complete additional interviews and review supplemental records. The investigation consisted of the following: Allegation 1: Due to a lack of supervision, residents physically assault other residents. Allegation 2: Staff threatened an authorized representative with eviction. Allegation 3: Staff did not complete a proper reassessment of a resident. Unfounded The investigation revealed the following: As part of the investigation, on June 12, 2026, at 11:00 AM, the Department contacted Maryy Aguirre and requested the client roster for the Retirement & Care Center–SNF. Upon review of both the Assisted Living roster dated June 10, 2026, and the Retirement & Care Center–SNF roster, the Department determined that R1 is not, and was not, a resident of the Assisted Living Community. Mary Aguirre was also interviewed and she stated R1 is not a resident of the Assisted Living Community. The SNF roster confirmed that R1 is a resident of the Retirement & Care Center–SNF, which is not licensed by the CCLD Adult and Senior Care Division. Because R1 is not a resident of the Assisted Living facility where the allegations were reported to have occurred, the alleged incidents could not have taken place at this location. Based on the evidence reviewed and interviews conducted, the above allegations are determined to be Unfounded, meaning the allegations are false, could not have happened, and/or are without a reasonable basis. The complaint is therefore dismissed. An exit interview was conducted with Administrator Mary Aguirre and a copy of this report, along with appeal rights, was provided at the conclusion of the visit.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Jul 9, 2026 · control 11-AS-20260608104233

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 St John of God Residence cost?
$4,650 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,650–$6,100. 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 19 homes with 7 to 49 beds and similar homes 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 9 other homes of a similar licensed size in Los Angeles that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,375 to $8,250 a month, and the middle figure is $7,000 (n = 9 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 St John of God Residence take Medi-Cal?
On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this home is not on the DHCS participation list dated October 1, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
