Sections cited by area groups the regulation the State cited each time, from its licensing download, under that section's heading in California's rules for assisted living (Title 22), for example medications and medical care (section 87465, Incidental Medical and Dental Care Services), staffing (87411, Personnel Requirements), personal rights (87468.1 and 87468.2), dementia care (87705) and background checks (87355); the years are the span of its plan-of-correction dates, and the counts can run a little higher than the Type A and Type B total. The State notes that citations may be under appeal or already corrected, so open the report before you judge a number. Every section in each area.
Open licenses only (licensed or on probation), from the State's Community Care Licensing download, read each time this page is built. A complaint investigation is not a finding; "substantiated" means the State found the allegation true. Read the full reports on each home's State page before a tour.

Questions people ask
Which memory care homes are in Oceanside?
The State lists 26 licensed assisted living homes in Oceanside as serving residents with dementia: The Hacienda Mission San Luis Rey, Everest at Oceanside, Oceanside Senior Living, Shadow Ridge Senior Living, Ocean Hills Assisted Living & Memory Care, Heritage Hills, Agape Senior Care I, Aging Gracefully Care of Tri-City, Ana'S Elder Care 2, A&H Life Care and 16 more. The Hacienda Mission San Luis Rey, Everest at Oceanside, Oceanside Senior Living, Shadow Ridge Senior Living also have State approval for delayed egress and a secured perimeter.
What is the difference between assisted living and memory care in California?
California has no separate memory care license: memory care is usually an assisted living home (an RCFE) that the State lists as serving residents with dementia, and a home that keeps its exits locked needs State approval for delayed egress and a secured perimeter. Each home's State license page shows both.
