Application requirements Operating an assisted living facility in the state of Wisconsin requires a license issued by the Department of Health and Family Services, which is the regulatory agency in the state. Renewing the operating license is also an annual process for ALFs that requires great attention to detail to ensure the continuation of your ability to care for seniors. See the following regulation as to how to properly apply for your license and ensure good standing with the issued license: DHS 83.05 Application requirements.
