Discussion
|
This contractor operates a 16-bed board and care facility for difficult to place clients. This contractor provides two (2) levels of service, the Step Down Service Level and the Augmented Service Level. Clients at the Step Down Service Level are generally more independent and stable, requiring lower levels of supervision and less intensive services. The Augmented Service Level is for seriously mentally ill clients who require a higher level of supervision and services including more intensive mental health services, social skills training and assistance with activities of daily living.
