What You Need To Know About Adult Foster Homes


What are adult foster home providers responsible for?

The goal of an adult foster home licensee is to provide care and services to residents while supporting their independence, choice and right to make decisions. Adult foster homes provide the opportunity for residents to reside in a safe and caring family-like environment.

Adult foster home providers may help with:

• eating

• dressing

• bowel and bladder care

• bathing and grooming

• walking, which may include getting in or out of a bed or a chair

• behavioral issues as needed.

They also perform general tasks including:

• laundry

• medication management

• meal preparation

• transportation arrangements

What are the three classifications of adult foster homes?

Adult foster home classifications in Oregon are primarily based on the experience and/or training of the providers. In each classification, the licensee may only admit residents with a certain number of impairments. These impairments are defined according to six major activities of daily living (ADLs), including:

Eating/nutrition: The ability to eat with or without special equipment;

Dressing:The ability to dress and undress; to comb one's hair; to file nails, and to use makeup, etc

Personal hygiene:The ability to bathe, wash hair, shave and care for teeth;

Toileting: The ability to get to and from the toilet, to wash afterward and to adjust clothing;

Mobility:The ability to get around, both inside and outside of the home, using items like canes and wheelchairs, if needed, in addition to the ability to transfer from bed or wheelchair; and

Behavior management:The ability to understand one's needs in areas such as health and safety. Issues with confusion, disorientation, forgetfulness or wandering may be considered behavior management needs.

Adult foster home classifications are then based on the level of care that potential residents might need and the experience and training of the licensee and resident manager or shift caregivers, as applicable.

CLASS 1: A class 1 license authorizes the licensee to admit residents who may need assistance with up to four of their ADL’s. The applicant must pass the department’s basic training course and examination.

CLASS 2: A class 2 license may be issued if the applicant has two or more years of experience providing care to adults who are elderly or physically disabled. This AFH may admit residents who require assistance in all ADLs but require full assistance in no more than three ADLs. In addition, the applicant must complete and pass the department’s basic training course for AFH potential licensees; or

CLASS 3: A class 3 license may be issued if the applicant is a currently licensed health care professional in Oregon or if the applicant possesses the following qualifications:

• Has at least three years of experience providing care to adults who are elderly or physically disabled and require full assistance in four or more of their ADLs.

• Has satisfactory references from at least two licensed health care professionals who have direct knowledge of the applicant's ability and experience as a caregiver.

In addition, the applicant must complete and pass the department’s basic training course and exam for potential AFH providers.

Staff from the Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS), Aging and People with Disabilities (APD), or the Area Agency on Aging (AAA) offices verify the qualifications of the caregiver and then determine the classification of the adult foster home. Representatives from the local office also conduct annual licensing inspections in the adult foster homes, and investigate complaints and concerns if they arise.

Does the state oversee Oregon's adult foster homes?

Yes. Adult foster homes in Oregon are inspected and licensed, both before the licensee can accept residents and then at least annually as long as the licensee stays in business. If there is a complaint about the care provided to the residents or the condition of the facility itself, staff from the Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS), Aging and People with Disabilities (APD), or the Area Agency on Aging (AAA) office will investigate.
