Post-Acute Transitional Rehabilitation

This program is designed for those residents with potential for community re-entry. Each resident has an individualized program designed to increase independence of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) while participating in the vocational program or cognitive rehabilitation program for up to six hours per day. These residents may have long-standing mood, thought, seizure, cognitive, and/or behavioral disorders that are stabilized by ongoing neuropharmacological management, behavior management, and/or environmental structure. These disorders may preclude clients from being able to maintain competitive employment, to live independently, or be able to return home to live.

The goals of the program include establishing and maintaining skills necessary for community re-entry while maintaining neuropsychiatric and behavioral stability. Residents must consistently demonstrate the ability to manage increased responsibilities and privileges. Behavior programming and the implementation of compensatory strategies are utilized for assisting residents in achieving higher levels of independence. For residents not showing significant or consistent gains, the Genesis program offers a more culturally normative environment.

• Requires part-time to full time supervision.

• Able to self-administer medication, if needed.

The program provides residents with the necessary tools to test their ability to live within a less structured environment to acquire the highest possible level of independence. Residents may be transferred to the Community-Based Living  programs to facilitate their transition back into the community, based upon demonstrated need for another level of care.
