WAC 388-76 Review Process

You have the opportunity to make your voice heard! We have opportunity to improve the rules that govern adult family homes.

After attending several Adult Family Home Council chapter meetings, the Assistant Secretary of Aging and Long Term Supports Administration (ALTSA), Bill Moss, heard the concern of adult family home providers. The rules (WAC 388-76) are sometimes unclear, and imposed without consistency. To take action, ALTSA and the Council are participating in a full and comprehensive review of the 388-76 chapter of WAC.  In order to allow the voices of providers to be gathered, the process will be broken down into several sections.  First up are the rules related to the physical plant requirements and residents rights.

To comment on the WAC, please download the document related to the section. You can use the track changes features within Microsoft Word, or add your comments directly into the document.  Please send your responses and feedback to info@adultfamilyhomecouncil.org by the posted deadline for best consideration.

  1. Preliminary plan and NCP are same and confuse most, eliminate Preliminary plan all together.
    NCP on line is not updated last form shows March 2005. We should all use this to avoid citations !!!!
    388-76-10495 specialty training where geriatric specialty for the UW ??? this needs to be added to this law.

    Thanks for letting us have a voice!!!
