What is a Medical Foster Home (MFH)? MFHs provide a safe, supportive, long-term care option for Veterans in a comfortable home environment. It may be appropriate for those who need nursing home care but prefer a non-institutional setting with fewer residents. Veterans living in a MFH are required to receive health care services from the Lovell FHCC Home Based Primary Care (HBPC) team.
