In Oregon, adult homes are called Adult Care Homes or Adult Foster Homes. These homes offer personal and health care to individuals in private residences. Care and supervision are provided to maintain a safe and secure setting.
Adult Care Homes are licensed, inspected and monitored by the Department of Human Services, Senior’s and People with Disabilities and Area Agency on Aging offices.
People often choose Adult Care Homes because they are more affordable than other Care Communities and care is provided in a homelike setting.

These homes provide care for no more than five individuals (Oregon). Costs range from as low as $2,700 per month to as high as $5,000 per month. Rates are based on an individual’s health care needs. Rates and costs should be discussed with the owner or provider of the Adult Care Home.
