California assisted living facilities and RCFEs care for some of the most vulnerable members of our community — and carry enormous insurance responsibilities. A standard GL policy leaves you dangerously exposed. We build properly structured programs that protect your facility, your staff, and your residents.
California Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFEs) and assisted living communities face a complex web of insurance requirements driven by CDSS licensing, lender requirements, and the practical realities of caring for elderly residents with cognitive decline, mobility challenges, and chronic conditions. Most assisted living operators we speak with are significantly underinsured.
⚠️ Critical coverage gap most operators have: Standard general liability explicitly excludes abuse and molestation claims — yet this is often the highest liability exposure for care facilities. Most also lack proper professional liability coverage. A free 20-minute policy review reveals exactly where your gaps are.
A properly structured program includes all of these working together — not just a basic GL policy.
Covers third-party bodily injury and property damage. Required by most licensing agencies and landlords. Minimum $1M/$2M recommended for care facilities.
Covers claims arising from professional care decisions, medication management, supervision errors, and clinical mistakes. Standard GL explicitly excludes these claims.
Required by California law the moment you hire your first employee. Covers medical costs and lost wages for injured caregiving staff — one of the highest-risk occupations in California.
Covers your facility building, equipment, furnishings, and medical devices against fire, theft, vandalism, and other covered perils.
Explicitly excluded from standard GL. Covers legal defense and settlements for claims of physical, sexual, or emotional abuse by staff or between residents. Essential for any care facility.
Covers costs from data breaches involving protected health information (PHI). HIPAA violations and patient data breaches are increasing risks for all healthcare-related facilities.
Provides an additional layer of liability protection above your GL and professional liability limits. Typically adds $1M–$5M of coverage at very competitive rates.
Protects board members and executives from personal liability for decisions made in their official capacity. Important for incorporated facilities with a board of directors.
