The Community Transition Services helps those currently living in a facility move back into their own home, the home of a loved one or supportive living. Individuals work with a Transition Navigator who will explain the process and conduct an assessment to determine what services would be needed in order to transition out of the facility. They will then work together to develop a plan centered around the individual’s needs and choices (if desired, family and friends may also be included in the process).
Each situation and plan of care is individualized but examples of services provide include bathing, dressing, home-delivered meals, assistance with medication, and housekeeping.
Qualifications:
- Residing in a facility
