Our placement process does not involve credit checks. Some of the apartment complexes that we partner with do require a basic background check. These are processed confidentially and are only seen by the church that is handling the placement.
All apartments are required to have at least one person in addition to the patient. Medical treatment is tiring, and the patient will need someone to help with transportation, meals, laundry, and other daily concerns.
Yes, if there is no one else available to serve as the caregiver. In that case, we would ask the patient or someone else of legal age to be responsible for the rental arrangements.
Some of the apartments can accommodate two or three people in addition to the patient and caregiver. We do our best to tailor your offer to meet your needs.
Unfortunately, no. Many of our residents are immune-compromised and we have to keep the apartments as clean as possible for them. For this reason, no animals of any kind can be allowed in the apartments. This applies to service animals and emotional support animals as well as pets.
