What does Sunrise Terrace RCFE III cost?

$6,050 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,950–$7,450. 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 9 small homes and similar homes within 9 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 6 other homes of a similar licensed size in San Luis Obispo that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $5,800 to $7,500 a month, and the middle figure is $7,500 (n = 6 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 Sunrise Terrace RCFE III 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 Sunrise Terrace RCFE LLC, per CDSS records as of September 27, 2026. See the homes licensed to Sunrise Terrace RCFE LLC — at least 5 on the state roster.

Is there a hospital nearby?

Adventist Health Sierra Vista is 2.8 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

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 worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 9 small homes and similar homes within 9 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.

9 homes like this within 9 miles publish starting rates mostly between $4,850–$7,500.

  • 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).

Allegation investigated: Staff did not refill resident’s medication prescription in a timely manner causing resident to get a seizure.

On 06/28/2024, at 11:50am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jeffries arrived to the facility unannounced to deliver the finial finding to the two allegations to this complaint. LPA met with Licensee, Edwin Ingan, announced who he is and the reason for the visit. As to the allegation of, “Staff did not refill resident’s medication prescription in a timely manner causing resident to get a seizure.” It was alleged that, facility failed to order Resident 1’s (R1) medication leading to a 4-day lapse in medication administration of specific medication and ultimately resulting in R1 having a seizure and hospitalization. It was discovered through documentation and interviews on 10/31/23 with Administrator Edwin Ingan, who stated that, medications in question were not in stock at primary pharmacy. Administrator stated that he was “working to fill the medication with the pharmacy”. Administrator also stated that R1 missed 4 days of medication in question and was hospitalized due to seizure. CONTINUED on LIC9099-C Substantiated Administrator stated that the medication in question of which R1 had missed for 4 days, was to address seizures. Administrator stated that he notified R1’s representative after R1 had the seizure and was hospitalization occurred on 10/27/2023. LPA Jeffries collected and reviewed Serious Incident Report dated 10/27/23 from facility reporting R1 seizure, UTI, hospitalization, and note indication “BE SURE MEDICATIONS ARE FILLED IN TIMELY MANNER. NOTIFY POA, DOCTOR, ADMINISTRATOR …” LPA reviewed Facility Centrally Stored Medication Records (CSMR) for R1 and noted that the medication in question was filled on 10/27/2023 after R1 had gone to the hospital due to seizure. Based on documentation, interviews, medical records and admission, there is enough evidence to support the allegation of, “Staff did not refill resident’s medication prescription in a timely manner causing resident to get a seizure.” and is substantiated at this time. Administrator was informed that the case will be reviewed and it is possible additional civil penalties could assessed based on Health and Safety Code 1569.49(f).

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.

Who holds the licence

Sunrise Terrace RCFE LLC, licensed since 2017, operates 4 licensed homes in California. Running more than one home is common and is neither good nor bad on its own.

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?
