Ohio Family Care Homes (Assisted Living) combine a home-like setting with personal support services to provide more intensive care than is available through home care services. Assisted living homes provide older adults with an alternative to nursing facility care that is both less expensive and less restrictive.

Assisted living residences vary considerably, but most provide meals, housekeeping, laundry, transportation, and social activities. They also offer personal care, such as assistance with eating, bathing, grooming and personal hygiene. Some nursing care is also provided, including medication administration and dressing changes.
