What Are Adult Family Homes?

Adult family homes are residential homes licensed to care for a small number of seniors — typically 2 to 8 residents. They provide a home-like atmosphere with personalized care from dedicated caregivers who live in or near the home.

These homes are an excellent option for seniors who prefer a smaller, more intimate setting over larger community environments.

How Adult Family Homes Help

Personalized Attention

With a low caregiver-to-resident ratio, adult family homes provide highly personalized attention and care tailored to each individual's needs.

Home-Like Environment

Unlike larger facilities, adult family homes feel like actual homes — with shared meals at the family table, cozy common areas, and a sense of belonging.

Comprehensive Care

Adult family homes can accommodate a wide range of care needs including daily living assistance, medication management, and even specialized memory care services.

Cost-Effective

Adult family homes are often more affordable than larger assisted living communities while providing comparable — and sometimes superior — levels of personalized care.
