Frequently Asked Questions

An adult family home is a residential home licensed to care for up to 6 non-related seniors, providing room, board, laundry, and personalized assistance with daily living activities in a warm, home-like environment.

Nursing homes are large clinical institutions focusing heavily on intense medical and rehabilitative care. Adult family homes offer a warm, residential environment focusing on daily living assistance and personal care with a much lower staff-to-resident ratio — typically 1:3 or 1:4 versus 1:10 or more in large facilities.
