Questions
Washington nursing homes FAQs
What is an adult family home in Washington?
An adult family home is a licensed residential home caring for a small number of residents (typically up to six) — Washington's version of a board-and-care or residential care home. They offer a more intimate, home-like alternative to larger assisted living, often at a lower cost. Our advisors can help you compare both.
Does Washington Medicaid pay for assisted living?
Yes — Apple Health (Washington Medicaid) covers the care-services portion of assisted living, adult family homes, and enhanced residential care primarily through the COPES waiver, for those who qualify. Room and board is paid from the resident's income.
