No, I do not know any more about them. I came across this while searching "quadriplegic group homes" as an alternative to nursing homes. My DSHS case manager has mentioned that she has other clients that live in these type of Adult Family Homes.
Washington state has several programs for long-term community living to care for people on Medicaid. Roads to Community Living Helping People Living in Institutions Return to Their Community https://www.dshs.wa.gov/altsa/home-and-community-services/roads-community-living New Freedom Waiver Giving Participants the opportunity to decide how to best meet their care needs and manage their service budget. https://www.dshs.wa.gov/altsa/stakeholders/new-freedom-waiver I am receiving 349 hours/month of private duty nursing care. That comes out to 11 hr/day. I am using a mix of nursing agency nurses and independent providers who contract directly with the state. In addition to that, I receive 248 hrs/month of non-skilled care which works out to 8 hrs/day. I determine how I want to use those hours throughout the month. Check what community living programs your state offers.
