Bethany Care Bethany is a certified Group Adult Foster Care provider for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Bethany also has a contract with the federal government as a Congregate Housing Services Provider. This means that many people living at Bethany have affordable assisted living. We provide them with meals, 1-2 hours of personal care each day, a managed care plan overseen by a registered nurse at the instruction of a doctor, and access to other community services to keep them avoid institutionalization.
In the winter of 2002-03 thirty-three apartments at Merrivista were renovated so that all of them will be wheelchair accessible with roll in showers, lowered cabinets, etc. The Bethany Care staff consults with a Professional Assessment Committee of community healthcare volunteers from other agencies who review the care plans and offer insight from their expertise. Every participant is evaluated in this twice a year.
