Personal Supports Services

Support for adults living in the community

Linwood’s Personal Supports Services offer valuable services to individuals with intellectual disabilities who either live at home with their families or independently in the community. Guided by a Person Centered Plan that is developed for each program participant, the program offers choices and increased independence while encouraging productivity and shared community involvement. Through a variety of activities geared toward enhancing daily life-skills development, our primary focus is to help participants develop and maintain the highest level of independence possible in the most integrated setting. Staff develop supportive and productive relationships with program participants while encouraging and facilitating choice, self-direction, self-advocacy and natural supports.

Services are dynamic and adaptable to meet the ever-changing needs of the individuals and their families, including but not limited to:

  • Housekeeping assistance
  • Providing healthy food options and nutrition planning
  • Personal hygiene and grooming
  • 24-hour emergency assistance for participants residing independently
  • Community integration and social skills
  • Budgeting and banking
  • Transportation to and from activities
