RCFE · 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 rules that apply to this facility

California Title 22 requirements for this facility, with the specific regulation and a suggested question for each.Rules this facility has been cited for are shown first.

What dementia-care training must staff complete?Cited Sep 202422 CCR §87705 / HSC §1569.625

Because this facility markets dementia or Alzheimer's care, state law mandates higher training standards:

  • 12 hours initial dementia training — 6 hours before a staff member works independently with residents, 6 more within the first 4 weeks.
  • 8 hours annual dementia in-service — required every year thereafter.
  • Administrator CE — the administrator must include 8 hours of dementia-specific continuing education in every 2-year recertification cycle.

Training must cover individualized care plans, behavioral expressions, appropriate supervision, and the facility's dementia care philosophy.

Ask on tour: Ask how dementia training records are kept — families may request documentation.

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.
