Regional Manager Leslie Mendiveles, Licensing Program Manager Reyna Lacey and Licensing Program Analyst Tricia Danielson met with Mark Hellickson to discuss Senate Bill 897 (SB 897), after Community Care Licensing received information that the Licensee received a notice of default on March 2, 2021. RM Mendiveles and LPM Lacey advised of the responsibilities of the Licensee regarding this issue.
The 2011 Senate Bill 897 (SB 897) added Section 1569.686 to the Health and Safety Code establishing the Residential Care Facility for the Elderly Residents Foreclosure Protection Act of 2011. The Residential Care Facility for the Elderly Residents Foreclosure Protection Act of 2011 requires Licensees to notify the following parties in writing within two business days following the receipt of a notice of default:

1) The Department of Social Services

2) State Long-Term Care Ombudsman
California Department of Aging
1300 National Drive, Suite 200
Sacramento, CA 95834-1992

3) Residents and, if applicable, their legal representatives. A notice must also be made to an applicant for potential residence and their legal representative. The applicant notice does not have to be in writing.

In order to comply with the provisions of this law, a Licensee in default is required to report so to the above entities. Notices to all parties are required to be made in writing. Per Health and Safety Code Section 1569.686(c), a civil penalty shall be assessed up to $100.00 for each day the Licensee does not provide the required notification. The total civil penalty cannot exceed $2,000.
