Narrative

The Intensive Day Habilitation Program is a comprehensive therapeutic day program designed for people with significant medical, developmental and other related disabilities.  People served by this specialized program are mostly non-verbal and non- ambulatory.  Programming focuses on:

  • communication
  • social engagement
  • gross motor development
  • use of adaptive equipment and assistive technology.

People receive a range of therapies and services from nursing, occupational, physical and speech therapies. We offer behavioral interventions as needed. The program uses standing tables and other AT to get people out of their wheelchair during the day. We provide the array of stretching, massaging and other therapeutic interventions necessary for optimal health. 

Each participant has an individualized plan with the goal of providing the range of supports to meet his or her potential and interest. Stable and compassionate staffing is a hallmark of this program. 

Participants must have Medicaid and 3rd Party Funding.
