Need a Housing Option for a Medically Cleared Independent Adult?
Lorinthian's House NC provides non-licensed, non-medical independent housing for qualified adults being discharged from care who are medically cleared, 100% ambulatory, and able to live on their own. Housing only — no medical care, nursing, personal care, or supervision.
Preliminary fit check
Before You Refer: Does This Person Fit?
Lorinthian's House is independent housing, not a care facility. Use this checklist to confirm preliminary fit before you submit a referral — it saves a step and gets the right answer faster.
If the person needs nursing, personal-care assistance, medication administration, supervision, or monitoring, this is not the right fit — and we'll tell you so honestly. We are housing only. Not an assisted-living, nursing, or supervised facility.
Clinical scope
Housing Only, Clearly Stated.
In plain terms, here is exactly what Lorinthian's House does and does not provide — so discharge planners and medical social workers can screen for the right fit before referring.
What LH provides
- Stable, non-licensed, non-medical independent housing.
- A coordinated housing referral path with a clear placement response.
- Support connecting residents to outside community resources where appropriate.
What LH does NOT provide
- No medical care, nursing, or clinical treatment.
- No personal care or assistance with activities of daily living.
- No medication administration or management.
- No 24-hour supervision or monitoring.
The independent-living standard is firm. A person referred to Lorinthian's House must be 100% ambulatory and able to manage their own daily routine — bathing, dressing, meals, and medications — without staff assistance. We are not an assisted-living, nursing, or supervised facility.
For discharge planners
How a Discharge Housing Referral Works.
1. Screen for fit
Confirm the adult is medically cleared, 100% ambulatory, capable of independent living, and can manage their own medications.
2. Submit a referral
A short preliminary check collects what's needed to assess fit and funding. Qualified referrals move forward.
3. Receive a clear response
The Housing Placement Desk returns a clear answer with next steps — always honest about availability and fit.
4. Continue the plan
Coordinate the housing move-in and connect the resident to outside community resources where appropriate.
