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

San Leandro Senior Living is a California-licensed Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) with 90 beds, operated by P San Leandro Lp and San Leandro Mgr Llc. The facility advertises memory care services, though this designation is operator-reported rather than a formal CDSS licensing category. California Title 22 requires all RCFEs serving residents with dementia to comply with §87705 and §87706, which govern individualized care plans, staff training in dementia care, and appropriate supervision. CDSS records show 34 inspection reports on file with 4 total deficiencies — 2 Type A citations (actual harm) and 2 Type B citations (potential for harm). No dementia-specific citations under §87705 or §87706 appear in the record. Seventeen complaints have been filed with CDSS during the period on file. The most recent inspection occurred on January 28, 2026.

Questions to ask on your tour

Based on San Leandro Senior Living's state inspection record.

  1. State records show 2 Type A deficiencies, meaning citations for actual harm to residents — what were the circumstances of those citations, what corrective actions were taken, and what safeguards now prevent recurrence?

  2. Seventeen complaints have been filed with CDSS during the period on file — how many were substantiated, what were the primary concerns raised, and what operational changes resulted?

  3. The 2 Type B deficiencies on record indicate potential for harm — what specific regulatory sections were cited, and how has the facility addressed those gaps?

  4. California Title 22 §87705 requires dementia-specific staff training — how do you document that all caregivers, including night and weekend staff, have completed the required training before working with memory care residents?

  5. With 90 licensed beds and memory care services advertised, what is the current staff-to-resident ratio during overnight hours, and how are memory care residents supervised separately from the general population?

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did occur, therefore the allegation that staff are not checking on residents as needed is unsubstantiated. Allegation: Impaired staff puts residents at risk Investigation Finding: Unsubstantiated During investigation, staff (ADM, S2) denied any staff being impaired on the job. Random interviews with residents (R2, R3, R5) confirm they did not observe any impaired staff on duty. Based on interviews and record reviews which were conducted, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did occur, therefore the allegation that impaired staff puts residents at risk is unsubstantiated.
