LIC 627C is the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) form "Consent For Emergency Medical Treatment - Adult And Elderly Residential Facilities" [1][2]. On it, the client (resident), authorized representative or conservator consents to a named facility providing emergency medical or dental care that a licensed physician, osteopath or dentist prescribes [1]. CDSS lists LIC 627C in the form index of its list of records for RCFEs [3]. The Title 22 sections on resident records and admission agreements do not name it [5][6].

Who fills it out

The signer is "the client, authorized representative or conservator," and the signature line says "circle appropriate title" [1]. The form asks for the date, a home address, a home phone and a work phone without saying whose, and it does not say who fills in the blanks [1].

When it is due

LIC 627C is a signed consent. The form carries no instructions about timing, filing or retention. Its only date is beside the signature [1]. Neither LIC 311F [3] nor Title 22 §§ 87506 and 87507 gives a deadline for it, and those two sections do not name it [5][6].

Where it is kept

We found no source that says where a signed LIC 627C is kept. CDSS's list of records an RCFE keeps, LIC 311F, names LIC 627C only in its form index on page 3. Its "Residents Records" list (section I) does not name it [3]. The footer of the form reads "(CONFIDENTIAL)" [1]. Title 22 § 87506(c) says all information and records obtained from or regarding residents "shall be confidential" [5].

How long to keep it. Title 22 § 87506(e) sets "a minimum of three (3) years following termination of service to the resident" for original resident records, and the list of what a resident's record contains in § 87506(b) does not name this form [5]. We found no retention period for LIC 627C itself.

Questions

Do RCFEs use LIC 627C?

CDSS lists "LIC 627C - Consent For Emergency Medical Treatment" in the form index of LIC 311F, its (4/05) records list for residential care facilities for the elderly [3]. A CDSS forms-request sheet for RCFEs (LIC 183B, 10/03) also lists it [4]. The form's own title says "Adult And Elderly Residential Facilities" [1]. Title 22 §§ 87506 and 87507, on resident records and admission agreements, do not name the form [5][6].

Is LIC 627 the same as LIC 627C?

No. CDSS lists LIC 627 (9/08) as the consent for child care centers or family child care homes. It lists LIC 627B (9/08) as the consent for children's residential facilities [2]. LIC 627C (4/00) is the one titled for adult and elderly residential facilities [2].

Is there a Spanish version?

CDSS lists LIC 627C (4/00) on its Spanish forms page [7]. The English form's footer reads "ENG/SP" [1].

How Sevana Care keeps this record

Is the emergency treatment consent signed and filed? Each resident's documents have a place for the emergency medical treatment consent, the LIC 627C. Photograph or upload the signed copy, and the place flips from Missing to On file. We don't write the consent. Open a resident's documents in the sample home to see the places.
