Shared Living for Seniors – RISeven Hills Rhode Island’s (SHRI) Shared Living Program for Seniors is a family-based residential option for seniors who are seeking an alternative to a nursing home facility. Shard Living Providers are qualified, compassionate caregivers prepared to welcome these seniors into their homes, their hearts and their lives. The Shared Living Provider’s role is to provide a comfortable, safe and healthy environment in which the senior can participate in the provider’s family life as well as continue to pursue personal hobbies, interests and activities that are important to his or her well-being and happiness.

Shared Living Providers accepted into the program receive ongoing training, 24-hour response and support, and a stipend along with compensation for room and board. SHRI works with the providers and seniors to ensure a mutual satisfaction and enrichment that is ongoing in this rewarding and life-changing experience.
