Residential Living

About Group Homes

Our group homes offer a comfortable, stable and supervised environment, offering 24-hour staff supervision.

​

Staff assists the residents with daily living skills such as proper hygiene, appropriate social interaction, home care, money management and recreation.

​

Admissions, the provision of services and referrals of eligible individuals, shall be made without regard to race, sex, color, religious creed, disability, ancestry, national origin (including limited English proficiency) or age.​​​​​

​

All group homes are inspected annually and licensed by the Department of Human Services, Western Region Office of Developmental Programs.

The Program

Individual program plans are developed with the participation of the resident and family. Most meetings regarding the residents will take place during regular business hours (8:00-4:00 M-F). Family participation in the development of service plans is important, therefore, the meetings could occur at other times to gain maximum participation in the development of the plan. 

​
Placement: Your Supports Coordinator, Program Specialist and Director of Residential Services will make every attempt to assist you in securing placement for the individual in the  setting and home environment that is most conducive to their wants and needs, as identified in the Individual Support Plan (ISP).

The Program, cont'd.

Occupancy for new homes under waiver funding is limited to a maximum of four residents and is supervised 24 hours a day. In some situations, more than one staff person is on duty to provide supervision and assistance. 

Transitional Meetings: These meetings are intended to give the individual and their family members the opportunity to share experiences that will enable Greene Arc to better understand the individual who will reside in the home.​​​​​​​​​​
