Assisted Living is a housing option that provides support to residents. Support for residents of assisted living includes personal services and light medical or nursing care. Assisted living allows a resident more independence than nursing home care. In Delaware, an Assisted Living Waiver pays part of the cost of assisted living care for those who qualify.
Public funding means that the program is paid for, in part or in whole, by the government.
Some publicly-funded programs have eligibility requirements and provide services at low cost or no cost to people who qualify. For more information, please see the Sources of Funding section of this web site. We hope that you find what you're looking for.
