Host Home services

Many adults with developmental disabilities thrive in a supportive, family environment. Our compassionate and skilled Host Home Providers are ready to offer this care, similar to assisted living for young adults. Through partnerships with private individuals and families, Support Inc. places adults with developmental disabilities in assisted living facilities for young adults or assisted living for disabled adults, ensuring they receive the right level of support in a comfortable home setting.

Support, Inc. ensures comprehensive support for both clients and assisted living caregivers, as well as host home providers. Our team includes experienced behavior specialists, nursing staff, quality assurance professionals, and public benefits experts, all dedicated to providing high-quality care in assisted living facilities for disabled adults. We continuously evaluate our services, using effectiveness and efficiency measures to ensure the best experience in assisted living for adults with disabilities. Your satisfaction is our ultimate goal.

In addition to Host Homes, we offer various residential assisted living services to meet diverse needs. Our Apartment Program caters to individuals seeking a more independent lifestyle, including those looking for assisted living for young adults near me. For families wishing to care for their loved ones at home, we provide services under the Family Caregiver Act, supporting those who may need in-home assisted living. We also offer residential support through the Companion Model. At Support, Inc., we deliver the gold standard of assisted living for adults with disabilities, ensuring high-quality care in a variety of settings.

Our Host Home Model

Support, Inc. has over 100 host homes in Denver and Northern Colorado. We offer a variety of host home settings to our customers, which in general is assisted living for disabled young adults. While host homes provide a unique, family-like setting, some individuals may also be interested in group home for disabled adults or other residential assisted living options. Each of these settings is tailored to meet specific needs, ensuring that you can find a home that matches your lifestyle. Whether you wish to live with a single provider or with an entire family with children, we will help you find your ideal home.

In the traditional Host Home model, the client resides in the home of the provider. You will have your own bedroom but share the common areas of the home with other members of the household. For those seeking a different living arrangement, group homes for adults with disabilities may be another option to consider, providing a shared environment with structured support.

The Host Home Provider is responsible for creating a safe, loving environment and assisting with day-to-day care, including meal preparation, medication administration, and arranging medical treatment. If a more communal setting is preferred, a group home for young adults with disabilities might be a viable alternative.

Support, Inc. ensures that all Host Home Providers are adequately trained and skilled in general care, Medication Certification, First Aid, CPR, and positive behavior supports. Our Residential Coordinators carefully monitor all homes—including host homes and group homes for disabled adults—to ensure your safety and that all your needs are met with the highest level of care.

Matching Process

The most important part of all of this? You. 

We’re committed to providing the very best residential services and experiences for our clients—no matter their needs or requirements. Because we want to ensure that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities find the right home, whether in a host home, a group home for disabled adults, or an assisted living facility for young adults, we provide a thorough and rigorous matching process that is second to none.

Interviews
We interview the client, as well as potential Host Home providers, about lifestyle habits and interests using a list of 20 different preferences that have been determined to be key concerns. These include areas such as:

  • Cleanliness
  • Personal needs
  • Social environments
  • Likes, dislikes and pet peeves

For those seeking assisted living for young adults or a group home for adults with disabilities, we take the same careful approach to ensure a supportive, comfortable environment that meets their unique needs.

Ideal Customer Profile
The matching process begins after we determine the wants and needs of the person with disabilities. The potential Host Home provider receives an Ideal Consumer Profile, in which they outline what meets their personality, preferences, and lifestyle. This process is just as important for individuals looking for assisted living for disabled adults or a group home for young adults with disabilities, where compatibility with caregivers and housemates plays a key role in long-term success. Once the paperwork is received, the placement team completes a home study.

When selecting a family, we consider ethnicity, religion, marital status, children in the home, employment status, financial stability, compatible personalities and openness to ongoing contact with family.

Matching
We will contact the Host Home provider after a match has been made. Our placement team will set up opportunities for both parties to meet and get to know each other. The placement team will discuss the compatibility of both parties after this meeting and then determine if there is a match. This same careful selection process applies to group home settings and assisted living for people with disabilities, ensuring each individual finds the right home where they can thrive.
