Through
community-based day services, D&S staff assists the service
recipient to participate in meaningful and productive activities in
various settings with other community members who may or may not
have disabilities. The services provided are geared toward
enhancing personal growth and helping the service recipient feel
connected to his/her community. Therapeutic goals and objectives
are required for service recipients receiving community-based day
services.
Community-based
day services may be provided in a service recipient’s home if there
is a health, behavioral or other medical reason or if the service
recipient has chosen retirement.
Supports
provided may facilitate job exploration activities, volunteer work,
educational activities, and other meaningful, measurable community
activities that promote developing relationships and maintaining
ongoing relationships with friends and family members.
