Assisted living care is a range of care described in AS 47.33 and 7 AAC 75 that includes more than housing and food service, but does not include continuous nursing or medical care. Assisted living care encompasses 24-hour supportive and protective services in the activities of daily living and in the instrumental activities of daily living for an individual who is 18 years of age or older, as those services are described in that individual’s residential services contract executed under AS 47.33.210 and assisted living plan prepared under AS 47.33.220 and 47.33.230. Assisted living care is provided in a residential environment and encourages independent living to the greatest extent possible for each resident.
