Residential Services
Our group homes serve as an attractive and comfortable place to live with support given while learning independent living skills.
Team members administer medications, transport, and ensure the preparation of healthy meals. They assist the person served with personal care and medical appointments as needed, teach new independent living skills and meet other individual needs as planned. These necessities of life must be met. Equally important is that each person feels honored as an individual and that they have a choice in how they spend their time. Just like all of us, each is on a quest to find what is important to them!
All people want to contribute, and all want to be in relationships with others! All want autonomy and to have their voices heard and respected. Sometimes, we all need help in determining the possible outcomes of a variety of choices so that we may make informed decisions..
After fine-tuning skills in the areas of safety, emergency preparedness, cooking, cleaning, laundry, pursuit of leisure interest, socialization, health management and self-advocating, some persons served are able to move to independent living (such as to an apartment).
For others, the group home is home base to living your best life. While learning independent living skills is of the utmost importance, so is having a key to your own bedroom, making friends and being an active member of their community.
