OUR SERVICES
Service Facilitation
Ward Transitional Services provides consumer-directed personal and respite care service facilitation to individuals on the CCC Plus Waiver, DD Waiver Services, including Community Living and and Family & Individual Support Waivers managed by the Department of Behavioral Health and Development Services.
Consumers receive assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, eating, dressing, housekeeping, as well as meal preparation, shopping, and laundry. Assistance is also given in the community while an individual works
or attends medical and social appointments.
Consumer-directed services, often called self-directed services, empower individuals with disabilities and older adults to have control over the services they receive.
Our clients benefit from:
-
The ability to determine their own personal needs, how those needs are met.
-
Deciding who provides care for them.
-
Monitoring the quality of services they receive.
