What this license means. An enriched housing program is a residence for adults licensed by the New York State Department of Health (DOH) that provides long-term care in units that are similar to independent housing and are part of the community. It serves five or more adults, mainly 65 and older (all at least 55), with meals, housekeeping, supervision, and personal care. Like an adult home, it does not provide medical or nursing care; the difference is that the person lives in a more independent space, similar to their own apartment.
