Wellness Coordination
Wellness Coordination is a State Funded service that extends beyond the services provided through routine doctor and health care visits.
A Wellness Coordinator guides a client towards improving overall health and also guides Support Staff in their role of assisting a client towards wellness. Health Outcomes may be focused on prevention, maintenance, and improvement.
This includes:
-
Completing a Risk and Wellness Assessment to ensure the best medical and health coordination is provided for each client
-
Developing, overseeing and maintaining a Risk Plan and Wellness Coordination Plan
-
Training of direct support staff to ensure implementation of plans including medication and specialized equipment training
-
Consultation with the individual's health care providers as needed
-
Face to face consultations with the client
-
Reporting quarterly to the client's Individualized Support Team on the Wellness Coordination Plan to address whether outcomes are being achieved or need revision
-
Reviewing and revising plans annually and as needed, when there is a new diagnosis, hospitalization, or change in status
This service is provided through the CIH Medicaid Waiver. Meaningful Day Services welcomes the opportunity to enhance the wellness of our clients.
