What this license means. This is a residence licensed by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS), through its Division of Quality Assurance (DQA), where 5 or more adults who are not related to the operator live and receive room and board plus additional care or services. It can provide up to 3 hours of nursing care per resident per week (more only for a short time or with state permission), so it is not for someone who needs 24-hour nursing care. It is classified by size: small (5 to 8 residents), medium (9 to 20), or large (21 or more); its class shows whether it can admit people who need help walking or getting out in an emergency.
