What is Board and Care Home or Family-style Residential Care Home?
"In a Family-style Residential Care Home you get what you were used to having during your lifetime, a house to live in with things you are used to, like a kitchen, dining table, fireplace, and a backyard. People are there that care about you, and take care of you 24/7. They clean up after you, do your laundry, cook your meals, clean up the kitchen, do your housekeeping and grocery shopping, and mow the lawn along with other home maintenance chores. Any other assistance you need is also provided. Some people need help with bathing, dressing, grooming and taking medications.
