Adult Foster Care

Adult Foster Care means the provision of food, lodging, protection, supervision, and household services to a functionally impaired adult in a residence, and may also include the provision of personal care, household and living skills assistance or training, medication assistance, and assistance safeguarding cash resources.

At this time, there is a moratorium on the development of Corporate Adult Foster Care homes.  This means that no license may be issued for a home in which the license holder does not live and provide the primary care for Adult Foster Care residents.

Wright County will accept applications for Family Adult Foster Care homes at any time, however, placements are not guaranteed.  In addition, placements are not likely for newly licensed homes unless the license holder is an RN or LPN, and the home is wheelchair accessible, and the license holder has experience and skill working with individuals who have significant behaviors.
