Residential Care Facilities: A Key Sector in the Spectrum of Long-term Care Providers in the United States
Residential care facilities, such as assisted living facilities and personal care homes provide housing & supportive services to persons who cannot live independently but do not require the level of care provided by nursing homes. RCFs are not federally regulated; state approaches to regulation vary.
