Narrative

The Beyond Independent Living Adult Foster Care (AFC) Program provides supervised, 24-hour living for people who would like to continue living safely in their home with a caregiver. They may have a physical, mental, or emotional limitation. Caregivers and the person live in the same house. They share a common living area.

We have services for people who need caregiver help with Activities of Daily LIving (ADL) and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) in their home. They can maintain and improve their daily life.

To determine qualification for either Level 1 or 2 care, Beyond Independent Living must recieve a referral and order for Adult Foster Care from the person's Primary Care Physician (PCP).

Eligible Members must be 16 years of age or older.

We currently accept MassHealth Standard and CommonHealth Insurance. More coming soon.
