Adult Family Home Placement in Seattle — High-Acuity Specialists
We place the patients others can't.
Specialized adult family home placement for ventilator, tracheostomy, bariatric, and dialysis patients in the Seattle area. When other agencies say no, we find a way.
Why Families and Professionals Choose Us
We specialize in placing high-acuity patients that other agencies can't handle. Our network of RN-operated adult family homes and facilities with Private Duty Nursing (PDN) contracts means we can find appropriate care for even the most medically complex patients.
High-Acuity Specialists
We focus exclusively on complex cases: ventilator-dependent patients, tracheostomy care, bariatric needs, and dialysis patients. If you've been told "we can't take that patient," call us.
Fast Placement
We understand the urgency. Hospital beds are needed, families are stressed, and patients need appropriate care now. We typically match patients within 48-72 hours.
Pre-Vetted Network
Every adult family home in our network has been personally visited and verified. We check licenses, conduct reference checks, and maintain ongoing quality monitoring.
Free for Families
Our service is completely free for families. Adult family homes pay a placement fee, so you get expert guidance at no cost.
RN-Operated Homes
We specialize in adult family homes operated by Registered Nurses and facilities with Private Duty Nursing contracts — the highest level of care available outside a hospital.
We Answer the Phone
When you call with an urgent placement need, we pick up. No call centers, no phone trees — direct access to people who can help.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an adult family home?
An adult family home (AFH) is a residential care option licensed to provide room, board, and personal care for 2-6 residents. Unlike large assisted living facilities, AFHs offer a home-like environment with higher staff-to-resident ratios and more personalized attention. In Washington state, AFHs are regulated by the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS).
How is your service different from other placement agencies?
We specialize exclusively in high-acuity placements — patients with ventilators, tracheostomies, bariatric needs, and dialysis requirements. While general placement services often can't help with these complex cases, we've built a network specifically for patients who need RN-level care. We place the patients others can't.
How much does your service cost?
Our service is completely free for families. Adult family homes pay us a placement fee, which means you receive expert guidance and support at no cost to you.
How quickly can you find placement?
For most cases, we can identify appropriate options within 48-72 hours. We understand the urgency — hospital beds are needed, insurance timelines are tight, and families are stressed. Speed is one of our core value propositions.
What does "Private Duty Nursing" mean?
Private Duty Nursing (PDN) is a Medicaid benefit that provides one-on-one skilled nursing care for patients with complex medical needs. Adult family homes with PDN contracts can accept the sickest patients — those requiring ventilator management, tracheostomy care, and other intensive medical support — because they have 24/7 nursing coverage.
Do you work with Medicaid patients?
Yes. We have adult family homes in our network that accept Medicaid, including homes with PDN contracts for high-acuity Medicaid patients. We can help navigate the complex intersection of care needs and payment options.
What areas do you serve?
According to the Genworth Cost of Care Survey, Seattle-area adult family home costs vary by care level. We serve the greater Seattle metropolitan area, including Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Renton, Kent, Federal Way, Lynnwood, Everett, and surrounding communities.
