What a home like this is
The state file lists this as a continuing care retirement community (CCRC). A CCRC offers several levels of living on one campus, and its assisted living section is licensed under the same RCFE rules as other care homes. Most CCRCs charge an entrance fee plus a monthly fee under a continuing care contract, and some reserve assisted living for residents who already live there, so ask how admission works before you plan a visit.
What it may cost
Continuing care retirement communities usually charge an entrance fee plus a monthly fee, and both vary widely with the community and the type of contract, so there is no typical range to show. Every home sets its own rates, so the only way to know is to ask. Use our care cost calculator for an estimate based on the care your loved one needs, or see what board and care costs in Los Angeles.
