How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from
The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly for assisted living private room, seen September 9, 2026.
- 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: Caregiver hit resident on the thighs.

Upon arrival, the LPA was greeted by the DSP, Luisa Regala. The LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection. The DSP informed the LPA that there were (6) residents in care. Regarding the allegation “Caregiver hit resident on the thighs”, the Reporting Party (RP) stated “On 11/22/2024 the resident reported to the complainant that caregiver Kanalle, last name unkonwn, has hit him on his thighs for the past 6 months while providing care to him. The resident stated to the RP, "Kanalle is always rough with me". LPA interviewed (3) Residents (R1-R3). R1 was observed to be in their private room. R1 stated that S1 was rough with them, and about a week ago, the facility corrected this by removing S1 as the primary caregiver. Continued on 9099-C Unsubstantiated R1 stated that care was good now and had no further complaints and nothing to share. R2 stated that they liked all the caregivers and showed a thumbs-up sign when asked about the quality of care provided. R3 was not able to provide anything about S1. LPA interviewed (3) staff members (S1, S2, and S3). S1 stated they had challenges when providing care to R1 due to their yelling. R1 was in pain when S1 wiped their back and was not rough. S1 stated that they reported to their manager that it was rough for R1 when they wiped their back and needed (2) caregivers to bathe R1 and for R1’s other care needs. S2 stated that R1 is scared to turn by themselves and R1 shouts when they turn them. It was R1’s behavior to shout. S2 stated that R1 was itchy, and sensitive to touch and yells staff was hurting them when they touched R1. The staff was gentle with R1 when R1 was in pain. S2 stated that S1 was now paired with other staff members when providing care to R1. LPA interviewed (1) family member (FM). FM stated they are aware of R1’s behavior and R1 would scream when someone would touch R1. R1 scratches themselves aggressively and that’s why R1 screams when staff touches R1. FM is working with a doctor to resolve R1’s excessive scratching. FM stated that the facility had made changes so that R1 was not alone with S1. FM was happy with the care provided to R1 at the facility and had no negative remarks. LPA observed R1 shouting in pain when S1 and S2 were in R1’s room to change R1’s diaper. LPA interviewed R1 after the diaper change and R1 stated they had no complaints and S1 didn’t provide direct care to R1, S1 was in the room assisting S2. LPA reviewed the facility record of the Plan of Action. S1 will not be with R1 alone for now. S1 was given Elder Abuse Training on 12/10/2024. The facility will check on R1 every day for any bruises or scratches. Based on LPA’s observations, interviews that were conducted, and record review(s), the allegation may have happened or is valid, but there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred, therefore the above allegation(s) is found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. No deficiencies were cited during today's visit. An exit interview was conducted.

CDSS citation definitions (PDF) ↗ · CDSS complaint outcomes ↗
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.
Frequently asked questions
A citation does not make a home unsafe, and an empty file does not make a home good.

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.
