How will a resident adjust to Living in an Adult Care Home?
It is normal to expect an adjustment period for the resident, family and the entire foster home household once a new resident moves into an Adult Care Home.Adjustments are easier for residents who visit the home and have a say in the decision to live in the home than for those who have the decision made for them. Adjustments are also easier for the resident who continues to have outside contact with family, friends and former co-workers in the community.
