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.

Memory care context

Footprint Care Home is a California-licensed Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) with 6 beds. The operator advertises memory care services, though this designation is not formally recorded in CDSS licensing data. California Title 22 requires RCFEs serving residents with dementia to comply with §87705 and §87706, which govern dementia-specific care plans, staff training, and supervision protocols. CDSS records show no citations under these dementia-care sections for this facility. However, state inspection records document 14 total deficiencies across 9 inspections, including 4 Type A citations (actual harm to residents) and 10 Type B citations (potential for harm). One complaint has been investigated. The most recent inspection occurred on October 1, 2025.

  3. With 14 total deficiencies across 9 inspections, what systemic improvements has Footprint Care Home implemented to address recurring compliance issues?

  4. Although no §87705 or §87706 citations appear in the record, how does this 6-bed home ensure dementia-specific staff training and individualized care plans as required by Title 22?

  5. Given the facility's inspection history through October 2025, what is the current status of any outstanding corrective action plans with CDSS?
