I/DD Medicaid Waiver Services

We support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) through Medicaid-funded services. Our person-centered planning process ensures that each individual’s needs are met, helping them develop daily living skills, personal care, social skills, and community involvement. We also offer professional nursing care to provide respite for caregivers.

Caregiver supporting a resident at home

Residential Habilitation (ResHab)

What is ResHab?

Our Residential Habilitation Services, commonly known as ResHab, provide comprehensive assistance and training. These services extend to activities of daily living, independent living skills, typical household activities, family functions, community events, and social and leisure skill development.

We understand the unique challenges that individuals with I/DD face. Our dedicated team is committed to helping them develop and maintain daily living skills in a nurturing residential environment, focused on personal care, social skills, and community integration.

Caregiver assisting a participant with daily living skills at home

Personal Assistance Habilitation (PAB)

What is PAB?

Personal Assistance/Habilitation (PAB) consists of assistance or training to enable participants to acquire, retain, or improve skills related to living in the family home or their own home — activities of daily living such as bathing or dressing, independent living skills such as laundry or cooking, and communication and interpersonal skills.

Our one-on-one support for individuals with I/DD is far from one-size-fits-all. We tailor our assistance to each person’s unique needs, helping them navigate daily activities while fostering independence, confidence, and personal growth.

Caregiver providing respite support so a family caregiver can rest

Respite & Respite RN/LPN

What is Respite?

Respite and Respite RN/LPN services offer short-term care for participants residing in family homes, relieving those who typically provide unpaid care. If nursing assessment, judgment, and skilled interventions are required, the service may be delivered by an RN or LPN under the supervision of an RN.

Caregiving can be both rewarding and demanding. Our professional nursing care offers temporary relief for primary caregivers, ensuring quality care for their loved ones while they rest and recharge — providing relief, peace of mind, and a sense of being supported.

Community Learning Services (CLS)

What is CLS?

Community Learning Services (CLS) are provided in the community to support participants in improving their access to the community by enhancing their skills, improving communication, developing and maintaining friendships, and gaining experience with available opportunities.
