COMMUNITY CARE

Community Care, Level 2 (three homes, 24 beds): Residents in these homes may require assistance to complete self care activities such as dressing, eating, brushing teeth, etc. They may also benefit from staff direction about ways to interact effectively in social situations.

The staff to resident ratio averages 1:6.

The staff to resident ratio is 1:1 or 1:2 depending upon the need.

ICF

Intermediate Care Facilities – Habilitative (ICF-DD/H – six homes, 60 beds): Residents in these homes have considerable self care deficits accompanied by medical issues which require daily medication and some ongoing nursing care.

Intermediate Care Facilities – Nursing (ICF-DD/N – one home, 6 beds a second 6 bed home is scheduled to open late in 2009): Residents here are more medically fragile then those in the ICF- H homes and therefore require intermittent skilled nursing care.
