Adult Placement Services

We can assistance aged or disabled adults and their families in finding suitable Adult Care Homes or nursing homes for disabled adults and their families when the adult can no longer remain in their home safely. The long term care placement service offers counseling and information to individuals and families that are making decisions about facility placement. We also assist in evaluating if a group home placement is appropriate for an individual, help the family find a home that is a good match for the client’s need, and work with the family to make the transition as easy as possible.

Adult placement services also help elderly and disabled adults in the following situations:

• Those unable to maintain themselves in their own homes independently or with available community or family supports
• Those living in substitute homes, residential health care facilities, or institutions and need assistance in relocating due to changes in level of care needed
• Those who need assistance in returning to more independent living arrangements
• Those who need assistance in adjusting to or maintaining their placements due to individual or family problems or a lack of resources
