What this license means. An adult home is a residence for adults licensed by the New York State Department of Health (DOH). It provides long-term residential care to five or more adults: lodging, meals, housekeeping, supervision, and personal care, such as help with grooming, bathing, dressing, walking, eating, and taking their own medications. It does not provide medical or nursing care, so it is for people who do not need the ongoing services of a nursing home.
