An Adult Family Home (AFH) is a residential home that creates an intimate environment for seniors and vulnerable adults who need assistance with daily living. Unlike larger group homes or long-term care homes, adult family homes typically accommodate six or fewer adults. This setting ensures each resident receives the individual attention they need from compassionate caregivers.

The services offered in an adult family home are tailored to the needs of each resident. These can include help with bathing, dressing, and medication management. Many homes are also licensed to care for residents with specific conditions like Alzheimer’s or dementia. In addition to personal care, these homes provide meals, and recreational activities.

Adult family homes also offer more individualized care at a lower cost compared to larger long-term care homes or senior living facilities. The intimate setting, combined with cost-effective care, make adult family homes a great choice for families seeking high-quality, affordable care.
