Dear Residential Services and Supports Provider:
Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA) Policy 4.02, summarizes the client’s needs in the Client Referral Summary as the initial referral process. The summary helps evaluate your agency’s expertise in supporting a client’s unique needs or identifying specialized supports. If you identify ways to address barriers to supporting the referred client, DDA would welcome a discussion to develop the infrastructure necessary to meet those needs.
The three priority referrals requiring immediate attention:
- Clients ready to discharge from community hospitals
- Clients ready for discharge from State psychiatric hospitals
- Clients choosing to move from a state-operated residential habilitation center.
Please see the attached letter for more information.
