“Everything has been great so far. Everybody treats us well, and the staff are very polite and greet us every time we come in. My dad is loving the meals; he's worried he's going to need bigger pants. There are plenty of options and all kinds of activities, like poker night and bingo. His room is always spotless, and his laundry comes back the same day, folded and put away. The maintenance guy even put together a dresser for us. I'd definitely recommend it.”

A new license is issued when a community changes owners or operators. Records under an earlier license may describe a different operator.
What these terms mean
Type A citations are for “the most serious type of violations in which there is an immediate risk to the health, safety or personal rights of those in care,” and are issued “even if the violation is corrected on the spot.”
Type B citations are for “a violation that, if not corrected, may [pose] an immediate risk to the health, safety or personal rights of clients,” such as faulty medical record keeping or staff training.

Paying with Medicaid and other programsHow Medicaid pays for care in California, and other programs
How Medicaid pays for care in California
- Assisted Living Waiver (ALW). Medi-Cal can pay for assisted living care services through the Assisted Living Waiver, but only in 15 counties, only for people who need nursing home level care, and there is a waitlist. The resident still pays room and board. (state page)
- Waitlist. The Assisted Living Waiver has a waitlist. DHCS reported 18,365 people on it in December 2025. (source)
