Assisted Living Accreditation
Assisted living provides meals, housing, and personal care in a supportive, safe, home-like setting for adults of all ages. Focused on dignity, choice, and quality of life, these programs promote independence and meaningful engagement, with a commitment to hospitality, safety, and wellness.
Assessments of the persons served and their person-centered plans drive service delivery. Assisted living programs provide 24/7 staffing and a variety of services are offered, from minimal to intensive assistance with daily activities like bathing, dressing, eating, and medication management. Programs provide health services, housekeeping, recreation programs, and transportation, all guided by person-centered plans and coordinated care that meets regulatory standards.
Assisted living programs are available in various settings, from small homes to large buildings. Accommodations can be private or shared, ranging from single rooms to full-size apartments. These programs may have different names depending on the location.
CARF accreditation ensures transparency, accountability, and a commitment to high-quality care. It goes beyond basic licensure, confirming that assisted living communities have processes for ongoing planning, management, and performance review, all focused on meeting the needs of residents and their families.
