### What does Wesley Health Centers-Skid Row Res Care Facility cost?

$4,850 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,800–$6,350. 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 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 Wesley Health Centers-Skid Row Res Care Facility 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.

### Who holds the license?

The license is held by Jwch Institute, Inc., per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

### Is there a hospital nearby?

California Hospital Medical Center - Los Angeles is 1.4 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. [See licensed care homes near it.](<https://covelightcare.com/near/california/california-hospital-medical-center-los-angeles>)
