Admissions
Admissions Process
We understand moving to assisted living can often seem overwhelming and confusing for prospective residents and their loved ones. At Always Home RALF we have made the process easy to understand with simple steps.
1. PRE-SCREENING ASSESSMENT: Prior to admission, all prospective residents must undergo a short pre-screening and assessment to ensure that Always Home can safely meet their needs. We will review their physical, behavioral and medication needs. Your Pre-Screening will be scheduled prior to admission and can be held at your home or current location. You can begin the process by filling out our on-line prescreening assessment.
2. MEDICAL EXAMINATION FL-2 FORM: North Carolina requires every individual to have a physician-signed FL-2 form completed no more than 90 days prior to admission to an assisted living or adult care home. On this form a physician must recommend assisted living as the appropriate level of care for a prospective resident.
3. SERVICE FEE Always Home requires a one-time, non-refundable $5,000 Service Fee for new residents. This fee is not a security deposit and covers the facilities costs related to your admission, room preparation, orientation, and initial assessment, as well as general costs associated with the upkeep of the your living arrangements.
This fee must be paid before or at the time of the Resident Agreement execution.
4. RESIDENT AGREEMENT: The last task you must complete before becoming an Always Home resident is executing your Resident Agreement. The Resident Agreement represents your contract with Always Home and defines all the terms of your residency. You and your appointed representative will sign the Agreement.
The Agreement may be executed in-person or electronically.
