Overview of Everlasting Senior Care

Everlasting Senior Care, a 6-bed assisted living community administered by Warlito Pizarro, sits at 2117 California St in Carson City, Nevada. In operation for 9 years, the facility serves residents 55 and older, requiring health assessment, ADL evaluation, and compatibility review before admission. It occupies a moderately walkable neighborhood with a Walk Score of 61 and sits about 1.4 miles from downtown Carson City.

The inspection record is notably clean. Nine regulatory surveys since 2016 yielded just 6 deficiencies, placing the facility in the top 10 percent of Nevada assisted living homes. The July 2025 annual inspection reported zero violations and an A grade. One June 2024 complaint investigation found the facility had failed to maintain interior air temperatures (readings hit 87 degrees when state rules require 68–82 degrees); the deficiency was substantiated.

Beyond that single finding, a series of complaint investigations involving alleged elopement, caregiver neglect, poor hygiene, facility cleanliness, and dietary adequacy resulted in unsubstantiated allegations after staff interviews and record review. No fines or license actions appear in the available regulatory record.

But occupancy has declined sharply. The census stands at 2 residents occupying 6 licensed beds; 33 percent capacity, well below Nevada’s 81.5 percent average for similar facilities. This sudden drop signals immediate availability and suggests operational or marketing challenges.

Services include respite care, personal assistance with daily activities, transportation, and meal preparation. Recreation programming features fitness classes and arts and crafts. The building offers housekeeping support and medication reminders. Staff manage meals and snacks according to individual dietary needs and preferences.

Admission criteria assess health, mobility, and facility fit; the community accommodates independent and assisted living in the same setting.

Does Nevada Medicaid cover assisted living?

Nevada Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Nevada) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
