Older Adult/Disability Related Supportive Housing
Residential facilities specially constructed or converted to combine housing and supportive services in a "homelike" environment with the goal of maximizing the individual functioning and autonomy of residents. Assisted living facilities generally have private apartment-style accommodations with walk in showers, wide doors for wheelchair access, emergency pull cord systems and other special amenities; and offer the individualized array of personal care services which will allow each resident to function as independently as possible. Services vary from facility to facility, but usually include three meals a day with special diets, as required; housekeeping and linen services; personal laundry; social and recreational activities; transportation to medical appointments, stores and community services; money management assistance; assistance with toileting, bathing, grooming, dressing, mobility and other activities of daily living; medication management and administration; therapy and pharmacy services; and wellness and exercise programs. Assisted living facilities may be licensed by the state or may not require a license depending on the area in which they are located.
Group Residences for Adults With Disabilities
Agency-owned or operated facilities that provide an alternative living environment for adults with developmental disabilities, sensory impairments, physical disabilities, emotional disabilities, multiple disabilities or chronic illnesses such as AIDS who are in need of personal services, supervision and/or assistance essential for self-protection or sustaining the activities of daily living and consequently are unable to live with their own families or in a more independent setting. Group residences for adults with disabilities may be licensed by the state and may be distinguished according to the level of service residents require. Service levels depend on the self-care skills residents possess, their limitations in the areas of physical coordination and mobility, and the presence and extent of behavior problems including disruptive or self-injurious behavior.
Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals With Developmental Disabilities
Residential health care facilities that provide developmental services including training and support in life skills such as mobility, socialization, employment and recreation as well as skilled nursing services for children and adults with developmental disabilities (or a developmental disability and one or more secondary impairments) who require a level of medical care, support and supervision not available in group homes or other community care settings or through supported living arrangements, but who do not need full-time intensive medical care or support. Included are Intermediate Care Facilities/DD for people who have a primary need for developmental services and a recurring but intermittent need for skilled nursing services; Intermediate Care Facilities/DD-Habilitative for people who have a primary need for developmental services and an ongoing, predictable but intermittent need for skilled nursing services; and Intermediate Care Facilities/DD-Nursing for people who have a primary need for developmental services and a continuous need for skilled nursing services to monitor medication or medical conditions. These facilities are licensed by the state which also certifies that federal guidelines have been met.
