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

Anastasia 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 all RCFEs serving residents with dementia to comply with §87705 and §87706, which govern dementia-specific care plans, staff training, and resident supervision. State inspection records show 10 inspections on file with 10 total deficiencies — 4 Type A citations (indicating actual harm occurred) and 6 Type B citations (potential for harm). No citations specifically under the dementia-care sections (§87705 or §87706) appear in the data. Two complaints have been filed with CDSS during the period on file.

Questions to ask on your tour

Based on Anastasia's state inspection record.

  1. State records show 4 Type A deficiencies, meaning actual harm to a resident occurred — what were the specific circumstances of each citation, and what corrective actions were taken?

  2. Two complaints were filed with CDSS during the inspection period — were these substantiated, and what changes resulted from the investigations?

  3. The most recent inspection was May 28, 2025, and the facility has 10 deficiencies across 10 inspections — what patterns have you identified in these citations, and what systemic changes have been implemented?

  4. With 6 beds and memory care advertised, how many staff are on duty during overnight hours, and what is the procedure if a caregiver is unable to complete a shift?

  5. California Title 22 §87705 requires dementia-specific staff training — how do you document and verify that all caregivers have completed this training?
