Adult Foster Care (also known as AFC), is a program for Elderly adults or adults with developmental or physical disabilities who cannot live alone safely.

As an AFC Registered Nurse, you will be responsible for providing exceptional nursing care and services to individuals residing in the community with a Caregiver. Your role will encompass a wide range of tasks, including assessing patients' health conditions, administering medication, collaborating with healthcare professionals, and ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for the individuals.
Some responsibilities will include:
QUALIFICATIONS:
The Registered Nurse must be fully licensed by the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Nursing and a minimum of two years of recent professional health-care experience working with elderly or disabled adults. RN must also have a valid driver's license and access to an automobile.
