What care is Fredericka Manor licensed to provide?

Per its CCLD record, Fredericka Manor is licensed for 560 residents and it holds a dementia approval, so it may admit and keep residents with dementia under Title 22 dementia-care requirements; CCLD has approved delayed-egress doors and/or a secured perimeter for residents at risk of wandering; it has a hospice waiver, so a resident can receive hospice care there instead of moving; it may accept non-ambulatory residents (people who could not leave the building unaided in an emergency).

Even with these approvals, a California RCFE cannot keep a resident who needs 24-hour skilled nursing or has certain prohibited health conditions; that resident needs a skilled nursing facility.
