I am a private foster care provider. I am licensed for 3 residents. Currently, I am carring for 2 mentally ill residents who are higher functioning and not in any way violent. I am licensed to care for elderly and handicapped individuals as well, as long as they are ambulatory. I have a smoke-free home (smoking is allowed outside) and I help the residents with all their needs while still helping them to remain as independent as possible. I purchase, cook and store all the food and transport them to their necessary doctor visits, etc, as well as, any social events they may be interested in. Each resident has their own private room with a shared bathroom, which are all on the main floor. My home is within walking distance of most of the things Eveleth has to offer.
