Licensed Adult Family Home · Tacoma, WA
A Place Where Your Loved One Feels at Home
Advance Care AFH is a licensed adult family home in Tacoma, Washington — offering personalized, 24/7 residential care in a warm, real home setting. Not a nursing facility. A home.
What is an Adult Family Home?
The Warmth of Home, the Expertise of Professional Care
An Adult Family Home (AFH) is a state-licensed residential home where a small number of elderly adults live together and receive around-the-clock care from trained, dedicated caregivers.
Unlike a nursing home or assisted living facility, an AFH is a real house — with a real kitchen, a real living room, and real neighbors. Residents aren't patients in a ward; they're members of a household.
And unlike in-home care, your loved one is never alone. There is always someone here.
