Supportive Living Program
About the Supportive Living Program
The Supportive Senior Housing Program creates an assisted living like environment by providing supportive services to elders within senior housing complexes. Residents who are home care eligible will receive all or some of the services at a small co-pay. Private pay residents can purchase the entire package of services or specific services based on their needs.
This program was developed by the Executive Office of Elder Affairs and the Department of Housing and Community Development. It focuses on allowing elders in senior housing to "age in place". This project integrates the delivery of community based services (case management, homemaker/personal care, home delivered meals, transportation, shopping and laundry service) within senior housing complexes. This program is designed to create a supportive housing environment in which residents can access personal care services around the clock with a 24 hour supportive site aide. In addition, this program provides and encourages social interaction through various extracurricular activities (such as movie nights and in-house entertainment).
