All in AFH Community Involvement
Providing high-quality care in an Adult Family Home (AFH) requires more than just compassionate caregivers and a safe environment—it also depends on collaborative relationships with healthcare providers. Strong partnerships with doctors, nurses, therapists, pharmacists, and specialists ensure that residents receive coordinated, timely, and comprehensive medical care.

It's not just an art; it's a bridge between the past and the present, a way to understand ourselves and the world around us. For the elderly, especially those residing in adult family homes (AFH), storytelling offers therapeutic benefits, tapping into memories, feelings, and life experiences. Let's explore how recollection activities, centered around storytelling, can provide profound enrichment for elderly residents.
