State-approved
programs All HOMEPLACES are
'State-certified' facilities. Our Senior Healthcare Apartments
provide assisted living in a what is called, a "Residential Care
Apartment Complex" (frequently abbreviated RCAC). Our
Alzheimer's and Dementia Units are called, "Community Based
Residential Facilities (frequently abbreviated CBRF). This means
state surveyors visit and assess the care we give as well as provide
ongoing advice on our operations. The regional Office of Quality
Assurance -- an agency overseen by the Department of Health and Family
Services, provides this assistance. See: DHFS
administrative code 89 for RCAC's. Chapter
83 discusses CBRF's.
Our goal is to help tenants and residents retain their freedom and
independence by having their own apartment homes, while receiving
selected services. Couples can stay together. Family members
are encouraged to visit often.
HOMEPLACE programs are certified to work with public assistance
programs. Please click on "Financial
Considerations" for more detailed information.
Personal Care A personal caregiver is on
duty 24 hours a day. Most tenants average 2 hours of
personal care each week. However if needs increase, The
HOMEPLACE may legally provide up to 28 hours of care each week for our
RCAC tenants, and unlimited care for our CBRF residents..
