What is an Adult Family Home?

An Adult Family Home (AFH) is a residential home licensed by DSHS (the Department of Social and Health Services) to provide personal care for up to 6 non-related individuals, commonly called “residents.”

Be aware that not all AFHs provide the same level of care or services. Providers offer care based on their skill level or staffing, and therefore not all services may be available in every AFH.

We provide personal care and supervision, medication assistance, and necessary help with activities of daily living like grooming, bathing, dressing, and incontinence care. We offer social activities, room and board, laundry, and other care services.

Adult Family Homes play a vital role in Washington State’s long-term care, providing round-the-clock care to more than 20,000 seniors.
