Licensed bed capacity (maximum allowed). Not the same as how many beds are currently filled.
Indicates whether residents are allowed to have pets in the facility.
Third-party neighborhood walkability score (0–100). Convenience/context metric, not a healthcare quality measure.
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Count of regulatory inspections in the reporting window. Higher volume can reflect more oversight visits, complaint-driven surveys, or routine licensure cycles.
Visits or investigations linked to complaints, as counted in the state record (may differ from routine annual surveys).
Count of California state "Type A" citations — the state's most serious citation category (immediate or serious harm to residents), from California state inspection data.
Number of years the company has been in operation.
Reported or derived occupancy for the facility—typically how fully licensed capacity is utilized. Compare across peers in the same market.
Better Business Bureau grade for the operating company. Reflects complaint handling and business practices, not clinical care quality.
Name of the licensed owner, operator, or managing entity as filed with the state. Useful for grouping facilities under the same organization.

Overview of San Carlos Elms

San Carlos Elms provides assisted living and memory care in San Carlos, CA. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks while a resident keeps a private living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone who may be at risk of wandering. Having both care levels on one campus may suit a resident whose needs grow over time without requiring a move to a different community.

The community has 130 beds, with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom residences. A studio provides one private living space, while the larger layouts can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants more room. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet when moving in. There are options for different household needs.

Listed starting prices for assisted living are $6,274, $7,450, and $8,882; listed starting prices for memory care are $10,470, $11,930, and $16,805. The multiple prices within each care level indicate that the amount depends on the specific arrangement selected, so families will need to match the rate to the residence and care arrangement under consideration. Residents can use the patio as outdoor space, while the formal dining room serves home-cooked flavors with professional service and allows residents to provide input on menus. A Walk Score of 97 places the area in the walker’s paradise band, meaning daily errands do not require a car and a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently. Scott Evans serves as administrator, and San Carlos Development operates the community.
