Types of Facilities
Assisted living facilities provide individualized health and personal care assistance in a homelike setting with an emphasis on personal dignity, autonomy, independence and privacy. Facilities can be large apartment-like settings or private residences. Services include meals, bathing, dressing, toileting and administering or supervising medication.
Texas licenses assisted living facilities based on residents' physical and mental ability to evacuate the facility in an emergency and whether nighttime attendance is necessary.
- A Type A facility cares for residents who do not require routine attendance during sleeping hours and are capable of following directions in an emergency.
- A Type B facility is for residents who require staff assistance to evacuate, are not capable of following directions in an emergency and require nighttime attendance.
- A Type E facility is for residents who are mentally and physically capable of unassisted evacuation in an emergency, do not require night time attendance and require only medication supervision
- Three and under is a residential/personal care home that: furnishes food and shelter to no more than three (3) persons who are unrelated to the proprietor of the establishment; and provides personal care services. Multiple homes, regardless of number of residents, requires licensing.
Members of SARCH offer more intimate, small group, social and physical interaction. Ask what activities are offered, how often, and group size. Keep in mind the preferences and capabilities of your loved one while choosing the appropriate setting.
