Adult Family Homes are a community-based residential setting with 24-hour care and services. There are over 4,700 adult family homes across Washington state. Each independently licensed and operated home can serve between 2 and 8 residents.
The level of care each home provides will vary. Nurses operate some adult family homes or hire nurses or appropriately licensed staff to support a resident’s needs. Others may specialize in caring for residents with forms of dementia including Alzheimer’s. Some homes specialize in caring for people with developmental or intellectual disabilities.
All adult family homes must have a current assessment of the resident and a care plan reflecting their needs and preferences on how they would like to receive those services.
