Five residents. One house. A registered nurse who owns it and lives the schedule alongside the people in her care — which is why we can accept residents other homes have to turn away.
Adult foster homes are licensed Class 1, 2, or 3 by the Department of Human Services, and the class sets how much help a resident is allowed to need. Level 3 homes can accept residents who require full assistance in four or more activities of daily living. In practice that means the question is rarely whether we can manage a need — it is whether the house is the right fit for the person.
Full feeding assistance, modified textures, thickened liquids, and monitored intake.
Complete assistance including adaptive clothing and dressing around contractures or lines.
Bathing, oral care, grooming, nail and skin care on a documented schedule.
Two-person and mechanical transfers, repositioning, and full assistance with ambulation.
Full incontinence care, scheduled toileting, catheter and ostomy management.
Redirection, wandering precautions, and consistent routines for residents living with dementia.
Medication management and nursing tasks. All medications are administered and documented in the home. Because the owner is a registered nurse, delegated nursing tasks are taught and supervised here rather than contracted out — wound care, blood glucose monitoring, and similar needs are handled by people who were trained on that resident, in this house.
A pre-admission assessment determines what we can safely support for any individual resident. We will tell you plainly if we are not the right home.
Most adult foster homes call a nurse when something changes. Here the nurse is already in the room. That changes three things families feel almost immediately: a decline gets noticed on the day it starts rather than at the next visit, medication questions get answered without a phone tree, and a resident whose needs increase does not automatically have to move.
It also changes what we can accept in the first place. Level 3 classification is available to licensed health professionals and to providers with extensive experience caring for dependent populations — it is the reason a referral that has been declined elsewhere is still worth sending to us.
Meals are cooked in the kitchen, not delivered on trays. Families visit without an appointment. The rhythm of the day belongs to the people who live here, and it does not change because the calendar says it is a weekend.
South-facing with a private bath, on the ground floor. Doorway and bathroom clear for a mechanical lift.
Corner room with two windows and a shared bath directly across the hall. Room for a recliner and a visitor's chair.
The quietest room in the house, at the end of the hall away from the kitchen and the front door.
Rates depend on the level of care a person needs, which is why we quote after the assessment rather than before. Nothing about the process is designed to be fast — it is designed so nobody moves twice.
We work with APD case managers and accept Medicaid placements. Your case manager handles the service plan and the rate; we handle the assessment and the room.
Monthly rate is set by the care level established at assessment, with a written agreement covering room, board, care, and what is billed separately.
We provide the documentation and care records most policies require. Bring the policy to the tour and we will tell you what it will ask of you.
Families and case managers can both start here. We respond the same day when we can.
See the room, meet the caregiver, ask the hard questions. Bring whoever needs to see it.
We review ADL needs, medications, and medical history to confirm we can support them safely.
A written residency agreement and care plan, then a move-in date set around the family's schedule.
There is no substitute for standing in the house. Call, or send the form and we will get back to you — usually the same day, always within one business day.
