Narrative

The Adult Foster Care (AFC) Program at CENTRO provides help to adults 16 years and older. They, because of illness, weakness, disability, or advanced age, cannot live safely at home alone. This program is designed for those who do not require constant 24-hour monitoring. They do need a significant amount of daily help.

As an AFC member, you will live with your trained Caregiver, who can be a family member or a nonfamily member. The Caregiver will provide help, prompting, or supervision with bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, ambulating/walking, and eating. The Caregiver will also provide transportation for medical appointments. They can be a good companion as well.
