Frequently Asked Questions
What is an adult family home in Washington State?
An adult family home (AFH) is a licensed residential home where a provider lives with and cares for up to six adults who need assistance with daily activities. They offer a more personal, home-like alternative to larger assisted living or nursing facilities.
Does Medicare or Medicaid cover adult family homes?
Medicare generally does not cover room and board in an AFH. However, Washington State Medicaid (through the DSHS Home & Community Services program) can cover AFH costs for eligible residents. Homes must hold a Medicaid contract and have available beds.
How do I choose the right adult family home for my family member?
Key factors include licensed bed count, the caregiver-to-resident ratio, specific care capabilities (dementia, diabetes, mobility), Medicaid acceptance, inspection history, and proximity to family. Our matching service helps you filter homes by all of these.
