There was just no way our daughter was not going to live with us. We knew having her at home would restrict us, but there was no other option in our mind. When we found AFCNS, our lives changed. They provided us with a team of professionals that created a plan for today and for the future. And with their program, we were able to take our first vacation alone. They changed our lives.

Adult Foster Care of the North Shore helps me care for my aunt in my home. They provide me with a nurse and a care manager who understand my aunt’s medical needs. Plus, I receive monthly compensation for her care through MassHealth. She is so happy to be able to live with me. We recommend Adult Foster Care of the North Shore to everyone.

~ Joan, Caregiver to Aunt

I lost my job and was looking for something more satisfying. My friend told me that I could be a Caregiver for a disabled or chronically ill adult, and through MassHealth receive monthly compensation. It was exactly the type of fulfilling job I was looking for. I am now a caregiver, or as I call it, a second father to Ron and Arthur. Thanks to AFCNS, my family and heart have grown!

~ Winston, Caregiver to Ron and Arthur

I’m part of my caregiver’s family. We go to Old Orchard Beach in the summer. We go out to brunch. I love being involved and am very thankful.
