"When licensing walks in, you need to be ready. I built RCFE Assist so you always are."

I'm Karolina Fil. I started my career in senior care hospitality and worked my way up — earning my RCFE Administrator license and rising into regional leadership.

Over the course of my career, I managed over 1,000 beds across multiple facilities simultaneously — ranging from 100 to 250 beds each — leading monthly leadership meetings with multiple administrators and overseeing compliance, operations, admissions, and staff across every site.

I've navigated Title 22 inspections, stayed current through every PIN update, made admission decisions under pressure, and kept facilities running through COVID. I know exactly what questions keep administrators up at night — because I asked them myself.

RCFE Assist is the resource I wished I'd had. Built on the regulations I know cold, updated with every current PIN, and designed to give you a confident, cited answer in seconds.

Available whenever a compliance question arises

Compliance questions don't wait for business hours.

Administrators face high-stakes decisions every day — admissions, medications, staffing, resident rights — with no quick, reliable, cited source to turn to.

📋

Title 22 is dense

Hundreds of regulations across every area of operations. Finding the right answer takes time you simply don't have.

📌

PINs change constantly

Program Instructional Notices update the rules regularly. Staying current is a full-time job on top of your actual job.

⚠️

Wrong answers cost you

Citations, deficiencies, and failed inspections have real consequences. You need answers you can trust — not guesses.

💸

Consultants are expensive

Expert guidance shouldn't require a $300/hour call. You need it available every day, on demand.

Ask anything. Get a real answer.

Here's an actual RCFE Assist response — drawing from Title 22, Health & Safety Code, current PINs, and the CCLD Evaluator Manual.

Can we admit someone with mild cognitive impairment into a secured dementia unit?
Bottom Line

No. You cannot admit someone with only mild cognitive impairment (MCI) into a secured dementia unit. MCI is not considered dementia under current regulations, and placement in a secured unit is not appropriate for residents who do not meet the criteria for a diagnosis of major neurocognitive disorder.

The Regulation

Title 22, Section 87705 explicitly states that "mild cognitive impairment, as defined in Section 87101, is not considered to be dementia." Only residents diagnosed with dementia (major neurocognitive disorder) may be placed in a secured dementia care unit.

If Licensing Walks In
  • Resident file with a current diagnosis specifying major neurocognitive disorder — not just MCI
  • Pre-admission appraisal documenting the need for secured care
  • LIC 602A reflecting the dementia diagnosis and care needs
  • Documentation of staff dementia training
📌 Title 22 § 87705 · § 87101

Built for everyone who keeps a facility running.

Whether you're the one answering licensing questions or the one signing the checks — RCFE Assist protects you.

What California RCFE administrators are saying.

"

A few days before my annual inspection I had some questions and wanted to confirm something. Turns out I was wrong — RCFE Assist corrected me immediately. When licensing walked in, I already had it right. I passed with flying colors. I'm paying for the entire year.

"I got cited because I didn't have consent for crushing medication. I didn't even know I needed it. When I checked RCFE Assist, it told me exactly what was required. I wish I had it before that inspection."
