Adult Foster Care
Supporting Independence with Daily Living Assistance
At Brockton Home Health Agency, we are committed to helping individuals live with dignity, comfort, and independence. That’s why we proudly offer Adult Foster Care (AFC) and Group Adult Foster Care (GAFC)—two MassHealth-supported programs tailored to meet the unique needs of elderly and disabled individuals.
Adult Foster Care (AFC)
Our AFC program allows a family member or friend to provide 24-hour care in the comfort of their own home. This program supports eligible individuals who require assistance with daily living activities but prefer to remain in a familiar, family-centered environment. Caregivers receive a tax-free stipend, and each participant benefits from personalized care coordination and ongoing clinical oversight.
Group Adult Foster Care (GAFC)
We also offer GAFC—a supportive care option for individuals residing in community housing or assisted living facilities. This program helps participants maintain their independence while receiving daily assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, mobility, and meals. With regular nursing oversight and care management, we ensure each client’s health, safety, and well-being are continuously supported.
At Brockton HHA, our goal is to enhance quality of life through compassionate, culturally competent care—empowering each individual to thrive in the environment that suits them best.
