HOME BASED

DEVELOPMENTAL THERAPY FOR CHILDREN

Home Based DDD Contracted Services

RESPITE

Respite caregivers allow other caregivers the opportunity to take a break from the duties and responsibilities of caring for a loved one. When caring for someone full-time, it's important to take time off to rest. This is where respite caregivers take over. A respite caregiver emotionally supports the primary caregiver and physically helps care for patients so loved ones can get relief. Respite hours provided through DDD can be used in home or in a center-based setting. 

Our Trained Respite Providers will:

  • Assist family members in caring for the child at home or in our Center during business hours.

  • Provide appropriate care and supervision to ensure the child’s safety.

  • Relieve family members from the constantly demanding responsibility of caring for their loved one.

  • Attend to the child’s basic self-help needs and other activities of daily living including interaction, socialization, and continuation of usual daily routines which would ordinarily be performed by the family members

 

HABILITATION

Habilitation is the assisting of a child with achieving developmental skills when impairments have caused delaying or blocking of initial acquisition of the skills. Habilitation can include cognitive, social, fine motor, gross motor, or other skills that contribute to mobility, communication, and performance of activities of daily living and enhance quality of life.

Our Habilitation Providers will:

  • Know and understand the individual goals of your child.

  • Be creative when developing a strategy to help your child achieve their goals.

  • Work with the family and support team to help identify goals and any behavior concerns to ensure proper services are provided.

  • Thoroughly document goals and progress as required
