RCFE

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 assistance with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, meals, and medication management in a home-like setting. RCFEs are not hospitals or skilled nursing facilities — they do not provide round-the-clock medical care.

The rules that apply to this facility

California Title 22 requirements for this facility, with the specific regulation and a suggested question for each.

What training are all staff required to complete?22 CCR §87411

All direct-care staff must complete:

  • 10 hours initial training within the first four weeks of employment.
  • 4 hours annual in-service every year thereafter.
  • Administrator certificate from a CDSS-approved program — 80 hours for first-time, 40 hours renewal every 2 years.

Ask on tour: Ask when the last staff training was completed and how it's tracked.

How many staff must be on duty overnight?22 CCR §87415

Based on 6 licensed beds:

One qualified staff member must be on call and physically on premises at all times overnight.

Violation pattern to watch for:A facility that documents a staff member as "on call" but with that person physically off-site — when the law requires on-premises presence — is in violation of this section.

Ask on tour: Ask the facility to walk you through their overnight staffing plan and confirm whether on-call staff are on premises or off-site.

What health conditions can this facility legally accept or refuse?22 CCR §87612–87615

Restricted — allowed with physician order + care plan

  • Supplemental oxygen
  • Insulin and injectable medications
  • Indwelling or intermittent catheters
  • Colostomy / ileostomy
  • Stage 1 and Stage 2 pressure injuries
  • Wound care (non-complex)
  • Incontinence
  • Contractures

Prohibited — facility must refuse or discharge

  • Stage 3 or Stage 4 pressure injuries
  • Feeding tubes (PEG, NG, or J-tube)
  • Tracheostomies
  • Active MRSA or communicable infections requiring isolation
  • 24-hour skilled nursing needs
  • Total ADL dependence with inability to communicate needs

A hospice waiver (HSC §1569.73) can allow continued care for residents on hospice who would otherwise fall into a prohibited category.

Ask on tour: Ask whether your loved one's specific care needs are restricted or prohibited, and what the facility's process is if needs change after admission.

What must this facility report to the state — and how fast?22 CCR §87211 / WIC §15630
  • ImmediateElopement, fire, epidemic outbreak, or poisoningImmediately
  • 2 hoursAbuse with serious bodily injury2-hour phone report + 2-hour written report — to the California Department of Social Services (CDSS), Adult Protective Services, and law enforcement
  • 24 hrsAbuse without serious bodily injuryWithin 24 hours
  • Next dayDeath of a residentPhone by next working day; written within 7 days
  • Next dayInjury requiring medical treatment beyond first aidPhone by next working day; written within 7 days
  • WrittenBankruptcy, foreclosure, eviction, or utility shutoff noticeWritten notice to CDSS and residents — $100/day penalty (max $2,000) for failure

Your enforcement lever:Incidents that aren't reported on time are themselves a separate violation. If you believe a reportable event wasn't filed, you can submit a complaint directly to the California Department of Social Services (CDSS).

How does CDSS enforce these rules?22 CCR §87755–87777 / HSC §1569.58
  1. 1Notice of DeficiencyWritten citation with a correction deadline. Facility must submit a Plan of Correction.
  2. 2Civil PenaltyStarts at $50/day for non-serious; $150/day for serious deficiencies — immediately, with no grace period. Repeats escalate to $150 first day + $50/day, then $1,000 first day + $100/day.
  3. 3Suspension of AdmissionsFacility cannot accept new residents until violations are corrected.
  4. 4Temporary Suspension or RevocationEmergency suspension for imminent danger; full revocation after administrative hearing.
  5. 5Exclusion OrderAdministrator and operator can be barred from all CDSS-licensed facilities — not just this one.
