In Intermediate Care Facility, which option describes included features?

• A. 24-hour round-the-clock care
• B. No medical supervision
• C. Licensed, daily (but not 24-hour) care
• D. Independent living with no supervision

Answer: (C)

Intermediate Care Facility provides a level of care that is more than independent living but less than continuous skilled nursing. Residents receive licensed, daily supervision and assistance with daily activities, along with health monitoring and care planning on a daily basis. However, there is not 24-hour round-the-clock medical supervision. This makes the description of included features the licensed, daily care (without 24-hour coverage). The other options imply either constant 24-hour supervision, no medical supervision, or no supervision at all, which do not fit how an ICF operates.
