Adult Foster Care
Compassionate Care in a Family Setting: Adult Foster Care and Our Family Model Program
Adult foster care is a compassionate and family-oriented approach to providing full-time residential care to seniors and adults with physical, intellectual and developmental disabilities who may require help with daily living activities or supervision for safety. At Mid-South Care Services, our Family Model Program is essentially a form of adult foster care that creates a nurturing environment where individuals can thrive. In our Family Model Program, our clients live in the homes of foster families, forming a close-knit and supportive community. This family-like setting offers a sense of belonging and comfort, allowing our clients to maintain their dignity and independence while receiving the personalized care they need. Foster family caregivers in our Family Model Program are dedicated to tailoring their services to meet the unique needs and preferences of each individual, ensuring that the highest standard of care is provided.
Family-Like Environment
Adult foster care provides a family-like environment for adults who may require assistance with daily living activities or supervision due to physical or cognitive challenges. In this setting, individuals live with specially trained caregivers in a residential home, creating a close-knit and supportive atmosphere.
Personalized Care
Caregivers in adult foster care settings offer personalized care tailored to the specific needs and preferences of each resident. This individualized approach ensures that individuals receive the appropriate level of support while preserving their dignity and autonomy.
Community and Companionship
Adult foster care encourages socialization and the development of close relationships between residents and caregivers. It’s an environment where individuals can build meaningful connections, reducing feelings of isolation, and enhancing their overall well-being. This sense of community is a key feature of adult foster care, promoting a higher quality of life for residents.
