Finding an Adult Foster Home in Eugene, Oregon

Eugene, Eugene Oregon, Senior Care

Eugene, Oregon is home to dozens of Adult Foster Homes offering housing, assistance and services to seniors and people in a private home residence setting. All of these Adult Foster Homes are licensed, inspected and monitored by the Department of Human Services in Oregon. These homes are carefully regulated and must meet safety requirements.
These Adult Foster Homes provide in-home care such as meals, personal care needs (bathing, grooming, etc.), transportation and medical oversight/medication management. Caregivers must pass a criminal background check and complete minimum training standards.

If possible, take time while searching for an Adult Foster Care Home. With so many to choose from, it is important to find the right fit. Foster Care may not be appropriate for everyone, so it helps to compare this time of senior care and housing with others such as Assisted Living and Residential Care, as well a Nursing Facilities.
