What does Wisdom Willow Senior Living cost?
$4,800 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $3,900–$5,900. 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 14 small homes and similar homes within 5 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 228 other homes of a similar licensed size across Los Angeles County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,000 to $6,300 a month, and the middle figure is $5,000 (n = 228 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 Wisdom Willow Senior Living 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 Wisdom Willow Senior Living Inc., per CDSS records as of September 13, 2026.
Is there a hospital nearby?
Pacifica Hospital of the Valley is 2.6 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

- 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.
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 14 small homes and similar homes within 5 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.
14 homes like this within 5 miles publish starting rates mostly between $3,000–$6,850.
- 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).

Jul 27, 2026Complaint investigation reportSubstantiated
Allegation investigated: Due to neglect and lack of supervision, resident sustained injuries
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Trevor Byrne conducted an unannounced subsequent complaint investigation visit at the facility at 02:52 PM. LPA met with facility staff who contacted the Administrator Lousine Sarkisian. The Administrator arrived to the facility at 03:08 PM. Entrance interview was conducted and the reason for the visit was explained. On 02/24/2026 the Woodland Hills North Adult and Senior Care Regional Office (RO) received a complaint which alleged that due to neglect and lack of supervision Resident #1 (R1) sustained injuries. The complaint was investigated by the Department. CONTINUED ON LIC 9099C. Substantiated On 02/25/2026 LPA Byrne initiated the investigation and conducted a brief physical plant tour, collected copies of pertinent documentation, and conducted interviews with two (2) residents, the Administrator, and one (1) staff. During the course of the investigation, the Department subpoenaed medical records and the police report related to this incident. On 03/12/2026 an Investigator conducted interviews with the Administrator, Resident #2 (R2), Resident #3 (R3), Resident #4 (R4), and Staff #1 (S1). Additionally, interviews were conducted on 05/06/2026 with Witness #1 (W1), and on 05/21/2026 with Staff #2 (S2). During today’s visit LPA delivered findings and interviewed the Administrator between approximately 02:59 PM and 04:30 PM. The allegation of “Due to neglect and lack of supervision, resident sustained injuries” alleges that R1 sustained facial bruising and a cut on their nose due to neglect and a lack of staff supervision. Interviews with the Administrator revealed R1 arrived at the facility on 02/18/2026 around 7:00 PM with only two (2) of their prescribed medications. The Administrator stated the Licensee Representative and the family member of R1 arranged placement of R1 at the facility without their knowledge. When R1 arrived initially they did not want to leave the ambulance and were yelling and screaming although R1’s family member (Witness #1) came to the facility and was able to calm R1 down. The Administrator stated during their stay, R1 expressed behavioral disturbances including screaming, attempting to get out of bed, and slamming themselves on the floor. The Administrator stated on 02/20/2026 they were informed by staff that R1 was screaming again and had woken up with discoloration around their eye after suffering a fall earlier around 4:00 AM. The Administrator stated they were informed of the injury around 8:00 AM. The Administrator provided a photo of the resident reflecting a bruised eye taken on 02/20/2026 at 9:04 AM. The Administrator stated that R1 was transferred to the hospital due to requiring a higher level of care than the facility was able to provide and medical attention. The Administrator denied any neglect or abuse by staff or any residents. They also denied R1 having a fall in the shower. The Administrator stated a pre-placement appraisal was not conducted prior to accepting the resident nor did the resident arrive with a medical assessment completed by a medical professional indicating the resident was appropriate for assisted living. CONTINUED ON LIC 9099C. The interview with S1 revealed that on the day of the incident S2 had informed S1 that R1 had suffered a fall earlier in the morning at approximately 04:00 AM. S1 stated they were instructed by S2 to sit in a chair at R1’s bedside to assist R1 when they woke up. S1 stated that at approximately 05:00 AM R1 woke up, saw S1 sitting in the chair near their bed, attempted to get out of bed, lost their balance, fell forward, became aggressive, threw objects and their walker towards S1. S1 stated that they photographed R1’s injuries that they sustained at approximately 05:00 AM and sent them to the Administrator although S1 no longer had the photo. S1 denied any physical altercations between R1 and staff or residents and denied neglecting any residents. The interview with S2 revealed that R1 had woken up at approximately 04:00 AM and had requested milk. S2 went to get milk from the kitchen and as they were coming back to the bedroom, they heard a noise and saw R1 on the floor, holding their eye. S2 asked S1 what had occurred and was informed that R1 attempted to get out of bed and fell to the floor. S2 asked R1 if they wanted to go to the hospital and R1 denied medical attention. S2 stated that at 05:00 AM, R1 woke with a black eye. S2 stated that they contacted the facility Administrator and informed them of what had occurred. S2 stated that the Administrator made the decision to transfer R1 to the hospital. S2 denied R1 being in a physical altercation with their peers or falling in the shower. S2 stated R1 required a higher level of supervision and care, possibly 1:1 care which the facility could not provide. Interview with W1 revealed that R1 had been admitted to the facility but only resided there for three (3) days before suffering the injury and being transported to the hospital. W1 did not know exactly what happened at the facility when R1 was injured. W1 recalled they had visited the facility to drop off clothing when they were informed that R1 had become very aggressive and was involved in an altercation with another resident. The facility informed W1 that R1 had assaulted the other resident and caused a “black eye,” which subsequently led to R1 being transferred to the hospital. W1 asked if R1 was hurt and facility staff said R1 did not sustain any injury. W1 stated they were contacted by the hospital and informed that R1 had sustained a facial injury at the facility. W1 stated when visiting R1 at the hospital the hospital informed W1 that R1 informed them they fell in the shower and hit their face when left alone. Although, W1 theorized that R1 may be confused. W1 denied being notified by the facility of R1’s hospitalization and only learned that R1 had been transferred after making the unannounced visit. W1 questioned the Administrator why they were not notified, and the Administrator said the incident occurred during the night/early hour which W1 understood. However, it was 2:00 PM when W1 arrived at the facility. CONTINUED ON LIC 9099C. Interviews with two residents (Resident #2 and #3) revealed no issues or concerns regarding the facility. An interview with R1’s roommate, Resident #4 (R4) was attempted but R4 had limited communication skills. The review of medical records for R1 revealed that R1 was admitted to the emergency room with the chief complaint of a fall and facial trauma on 02/20/2026 at 12:01 PM. The medical records indicated that R1 was admitted with the facial injury as a result of R1 engaging in a physical altercation with another resident of the facility. Upon admission R1 reported that the injury occurred as a result of slipping and falling in the shower the previous night. Medical records reflect that R1 had a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s. A review of the Unusual Incent/Injury Report (LIC 624) submitted by the Administrator revealed on 02/20/2026, R1 sustained a fall from their bed at approximately 4:15 AM injuring their left upper eyebrow. The report indicated they provide night supervision but do not provide 1:1 care at night and R1 was taken to the emergency room for placement. The incident was reported to the hospital social worker where the resident came from, and they advised taking R1 to the closest emergency room. The 02/20/2026 police report was also reviewed. Based on the information obtained during interviews and record review there is sufficient evidence to support the allegation of “Due to neglect and lack of supervision, resident sustained injuries.” R1 was accepted into the facility without a pre-admission appraisal or medical assessment therefore R1’s care needs were not identified prior to being admitted resulting in neglect and the subsequent fall R1 sustained. Staff also reported the fall occurred around 4:00 AM but hospital records show that R1 did not receive medical attention at the hospital until approximately 12:00 PM. Therefore, the allegation is deemed Substantiated at this time. LPA informed the Administrator that an immediate civil penalty in the amount of $500 is being assessed on today’s date (07/27/2026) for a violation that resulted in the injury or illness of an individual in care. The Administrator was also informed that additional civil penalties might be assessed based on Health and Safety Code 1569.49(e) and/or 1569.49(f). The following deficiency and civil penalty were cited/assessed (refer to LIC 9099Ds).

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.
- What is included in the monthly rate, and what costs extra?
- Who is awake overnight, and how do residents ask for help?
- Which rooms does the non-ambulatory approval cover, and what transfer support is provided?
- What could change whether someone can stay here?
- Can we see a bedroom and share a meal during a visit?
