How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 12 small homes 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.

Ask for the price

An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Daily life

Feb 10, 2025Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Staff spoke inappropriately to resident. Staff did not treat resident with dignity and respect.

On 02/10/2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lavinia Muscan arrived at the facility unannounced to deliver complaint findings into the allegations listed above and met with Caregiver Mila Shpak. During the investigation, the Department conducted interviews and reviewed documentation pertinent to the investigation. The results of the investigation are as follows: **Report continued on 9099-C** Unsubstantiated Staff spoke inappropriately to resident. Staff did not treat resident with dignity and respect. The department conducted interviews with staff and residents and reviewed records to investigate the allegations above. Resident, regarding the allegation, no longer resided at the facility. Staff two (2) and resident three (3) interviews indicated that residents have a good relationship with the staff at the facility and that no one speaks inappropriately to them and that they are treated with respect. It is not possible to say with certainty what a staff or resident may perceive as inappropriate, or what a particular tone of voice may sound like to someone else. Therefore, the department is not able to conclude if S1 was in fact intending to speak in an inappropriate way or did speak in an inappropriate way towards a resident; or if S1’s voice was perceived as inappropriate or disrespectful. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint is UNSUBSTANTIATED means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. Exit interview was conducted with Caregiver and a copy of this report was provided to the facility.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Feb 10, 2025 · control 59-AS-20241002164440

The median is across the 6,916 licensed small board-and-care homes (6 or fewer beds) in the state record. The figures compared are the state’s totals, not the documents.

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 Whispering Pine II cost?

$4,000 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,250–$4,900. 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 12 small homes 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 5 other homes of a similar licensed size in El Dorado Hills that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $5,400 a month, and the middle figure is $3,500 (n = 5 other homes publishing a starting rate).

Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date between September and October 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 Whispering Pine II 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 Sereda, Irina, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.

Can Whispering Pine II keep a resident on hospice?

Hospice care is approved on this license, covering up to 3 residents, per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026.
