Lake Chabot Care Home
What is an RCFE with Memory Care?
A Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) is a non-medical residential care home licensed by California CDSS under Health & Safety Code §1560. Residents receive help with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. An RCFE with a Memory Care designation is additionally required by California Title 22 (§87705 and §87706) to provide specialized staff training in dementia care, individualized care plans for residents with cognitive impairment, and appropriate supervision protocols — requirements that go beyond a standard RCFE license.

The memory care designation is operator-advertised rather than formally designated in CDSS licensing — what specific dementia care training have staff members completed, and how is this documented?
The most recent CDSS inspection was January 31, 2025 — may I review the facility's Plan of Operation and any updates made since that inspection?
As operator Lake Chabot Care Home runs a 6-bed facility, what is the ownership and management structure, and who is present on-site during evening and overnight hours?
California §87706 requires facilities to assess whether residents with dementia can be safely served — what criteria would prompt you to determine a resident's needs exceed this facility's capacity?
