TBI Waiver Services
Service Coordination
Service Coordination is a fundamental component of the HCBS/TBI Waiver program. Through this service, the Waiver participant will identify those HCBS/TBI services that match their current individual needs, and make decisions regarding who will provide those needed services and supports. Once these decisions have been made, an individualized service plan is developed and implemented for the individual. Taking an active role in this plan, New Frontiers is dedicated to assuring adequate coordination, appropriate communication, and maximum cooperation between all sources of support and service.
Independent Living Skills Training
Independent Living Skills Training (ILST) is an individually designed service, aimed at improving the ability of Waiver participant to live as independently as possible in the community. Through our ILST services, New Frontiers provides assessment, training and monitoring of major life skill areas including, self-care, medication management, interpersonal skills, sensory/motor skills, community transportation skills, reduction/elimination of maladaptive behaviors, money management, and household maintenance.
Home and Community Support Services
Home and Community Support Services (HCSS) are individually designed support services essential for the Waiver participant’s health and welfare. These services include supervision, training and assistance with activities of daily living, such as personal hygiene, dressing, meal preparation, household tasks, transportation, shopping, as well as socialization, and are provided as part of an overall plan of support for the individual.
Intensive Behavioral Program
Intensive Behavioral Programs (IBP) are individual interventions designed to decrease the Waiver participant’s severe maladaptive behaviors which, if not modified, will interfere with the individual’s ability to remain integrated in the community. IBP consists of a comprehensive assessment of maladaptive behavior(s), development of a structured behavioral intervention plan focusing on socially appropriate behaviors and the elimination of maladaptive behaviors, implementation of the plan, on-going training and supervision of the individual and other’s who may be instrumental to the plan, and the periodic reassessment of the plan.
Community Integration Counseling
Community Integration Counseling (CIC) is an individualized service designed to assist the Waiver participant to more effectively manage and overcome the difficulties and stresses confronted by an individual with brain injury living the community. It is available to the Waiver participant, their family, or to any other person who may have significant, on-going interaction with the individual (when it is for the direct benefit of the individual).
