HOME CARE SERVICES
Our respite program
provides short-term services to adults who permanently live
with their families as well as children who are living at
home with their parents. Our staff assists the family and
the consumer to schedule the number of days and hours needed
for the respite care. These services are needed for families
going on vacation and/or for family relief. Services are
provided at one of our facilities or at consumer’s home.
SUPPORTED LIVING PROGRAM
Our unlicensed SLP
programs serve consumers who are living alone, individuals
with roommates or private rooms, and individuals who are
still living with families. Some consumers still require 24
hours a day, 7 days a week care. We also provide two main
services in this program which are personal care and
community living services. The focus is to empower
individuals exercise choice and control over all aspects of
their lives. In these programs, people and their families
are encouraged and assisted to define and express their
needs, wants, dreams, and aspirations.
CHILDREN WAIVER PROGRAM
Our program
for children and adolescents serves children and/or
adolescents who live at home with their parents. We provide
supportive services to help stabilize the individuals with their immediate family
members; we assist in development of their treatment plans;
and
we coordinate and implement their school programs, medical
appointments, transportation needs and recreational
activities. We also provide services to young mothers in
their homes to ensure that both mother and child are
maintained in the community- teaching them social skills,
appropriate infant care (feeding time and monitoring), and
locating appropriate housing.
