The State Licensing Section of the Office of Health Care Assurance is
responsible for promulgating licensing rules and developing standards
as required to ensure quality of care for certain community based
facilities which must be licensed by the State, but not certified for
Medicare participation. These facilities include adult residential care
homes (ARCH), expanded care ARCH, special treatment facilities (STF),
developmentally disabled domiciliary homes (DDDH) and assisted living
facilities.
This Section is also responsible for maintaining a registry of adult
residential care homes, special treatment facilities, and homes of the
developmentally disabled and vacancies therein. An expanded ARCH is an
adult residential facility licensed to admit individuals who require a
nursing home level of care.
