Rural Living Environments provides individualized care services based on the needs of the individual, offering a wide variety of innovative support for individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) through:
Supported Living Services (SLS) are habilitation services provided to adults who require daily staff intervention due to behavior problems, medical conditions, physical deficits and/or lack of adequate survival skills. SLS for adults may be provided in Adult Foster Home, Community, or a person’s own place of residence.
RLE currently operates six Adult Foster Care Group Residences. In addition to our Qualified Developmental Disability Professionals (QDDP), all of our residences are staffed by Registered Direct Support Professionals (RDSP).
Rural Living Environments offers Supported Living Services for individuals requiring more comprehensive levels of support. Our proven record of success with individuals having significant maladaptive behaviors is the result of our customized, team-based approach and emphasis on positive behavioral supports. This approach extends to all aspects of our services – whether it’s aiding an individual’s development of personal and social skills or seeking improved health outcomes through individualized diet and exercise programming.
Independent Living Services (ILS) training is direct training from a staff person to address the identified skill development needs of an individual in the areas of communication skills, community living and mobility, interpersonal skills, reduction/elimination of maladaptive behavior, self-care, sensory/motor development involved in acquiring functional skills.
Assistance and supervision may occur during the delivery of ILS training services. However, training must be the primary service provided.
Rural Living Environments provides In-Home Family Support (IHFS) to individuals and their families when they are living at home. The supported individual, the individual’s family and/or guardian, the individual’s Case Manager(s) and RLE all work together to determine what specific supports are necessary, when supports should be provided, and how much total support is needed. The individual’s needs always drive this process.
RLE’s available staffing options for In-Home Family Supports include Program Manager, Designated Coordinator and/or Registered Direct Support Professional (RDSP).
A wide range of electronic support options are also available.
RLE can provide behavioral support in the home or community. Services may include
Leanne Negley has worked as a Behavior Analyst since 1985 and has many experiences implementing positive practice strategies.
