Reckon Rating

Ranked 1st of 8,413 in California

Compared only with other California facilities.

The record we publish comes from public regulators. The community does not get to edit it. The score is computed the same way for every community we cover.

Where the data comes from

Every record begins as a public document. State licensing agencies publish inspection reports under public records law. We collect them weekly from each state's department of public health, parse the violations against the federal CMS Form 2567 standard, and store the source PDFs alongside every claim we make.

What we publish

The whole record, translated. Each community gets a profile showing every inspection from the last three years, the specific regulation cited, the surveyor's narrative translated plainly, and the operator's plan of correction. The Reckon Rating is a single summary. The full record is the answer to the questions families actually ask.

Why the existing model fails families

Senior living advisors are paid a commission on every move-in, typically one month's rent. That fee is a percentage of the first month's rent, so a more expensive community pays a bigger commission. Operators who agreed to a higher percentage to win priority placement pay a bigger commission still. The advisor's largest paycheck is the one where your mother ends up in the most expensive room, at the operator who pays the highest take rate, on the fastest timeline. The inspection record is the one piece of the picture that does not bend to who is paying.

“The most consequential decision most families will ever make about their parents' care is currently made on the basis of a brochure and a guided tour. We think you deserve the inspection record.”
