Adult Care Homes are private residences licensed under county ordinance to provide care for up to 5 persons in Portland Oregon and 6 people in Vancouver Washington. Adult Foster Care Homes are single-family residences; they are home-like in nature both by design and appearance.
 
Day Care, Respite Care, Long Term Care, and Hospice are all offered by Adult Care Homes. This care setting is often the best choice for one who has increasing care needs. The caregiver to resident ratio is the best in the industry, minimally 1 to 5 in Oregon and 1 to 6 in Washington.
