Board and Care Homes
Board and care homes are group living arrangements designed to meet the needs of people who can’t live independently but don’t need nursing home services. Most board and care homes provide help with some of the activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and using the bathroom.
Board and care homes are sometimes called “group homes.” Many of these homes aren’t paid for by Medicare or Medicaid. The monthly charge is usually a percentage of your income (a sliding scale) that covers the cost of rent, meals, and other basic shared services.
