Assisted Living Licensing
The Assisted Living Licensing Program works to help Alaskans stay independent longer. An Assisted Living Home can be a place to call home and feel part of the family.
The Assisted Living Office:

- Provides orientation on state regulations, licensing, and fees
- Investigates complaints alleging violations of state guidelines
- Answers questions and maintains a current list of licensed assisted living homes around Alaska
- Monitors homes to ensure they are clean, safe, sanitary and are providing meals and activities for their residents
- Provides technical assistance and coordinates training to assisted living care providers
