AEDD manages two, 10-bed Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities
(ICF-IDD). The facilities provide services 24 hours a day to meet the needs of consumers through the use
of professional and clinical staff. Each facility houses ten consumers in a residential setting. The consumers served are both male and female, and are of various ages.
The ICF-IDDs are licensed by the Office of Long Term Care, a branch of the Department of Human Services under the Division of Medical Services. The direct care staff play an important role in the active treatment provided to the consumers. The services offered range from assistance in completing personal grooming tasks to accompanying the consumers out in the community for recreational activities. Unlike other agencies licensed by OLTC, ICF-IDDs offer the benefits of frequent community interaction.<\/p>

In order to provide the most effective treatment possible, each consumer has a uniquely developed Individual Program Plan (IPP). These plans are developed by a team at the time a person moves in and are reevaluated annually to determine any necessary changes to their goals. The objective of each plan is to provide needed support to enhance each consumer\u2019s daily living skills in order to increase their level of independence.<\/p>

Services are regularly evaluated to ensure that the consumer\u2019s rights are safeguarded and their best interests are kept in mind. Facility policies and each consumer\u2019s programming are reviewed frequently by a Human Rights Committee which is comprised of family members, facility staff, and community advocates.<\/p>

Our residential based program is specifically designed to meet the needs of the individuals we serve and our facilities are designed to provide a home-like atmosphere. The facility\u2019s staff work alongside community members to ensure that we are doing everything possible to assist those served in becoming more independent. We strive to have a positive impact in the lives of every individual needing our services, as well as in the lives of their families and friends.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
