12  Program Summary: Habilitation Services is a program to provide Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) for Iowans with the functional impairments typically associated with chronic mental illnesses.  The federal Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 permitted states to offer home- and community-based services (HCBS) as a state plan option effective January 1, 2007.  Using this option, the Department worked with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid services to design a program to meet the service needs of Iowans with the functional limitations typically associated with chronic mental illness.

13  Habilitation Services are designed to assist participants in acquiring, retaining and improving the self-help, socialization and adaptive skills necessary to reside successfully in home and community-based settings. Services available through the program include:  Case Management - Provides service coordination and monitoring. Available as a Habilitation service when the individual does not otherwise qualify for targeted case management (Iowa Plan or IME funded).  Home-Based Habilitation - Services provided in the person's home and community. Typical examples would be assistance with medication management, budgeting, grocery shopping, personal hygiene skills, etc.  Day Habilitation - Services that are usually provided in a day program setting outside the home. Focuses on areas such as social skills, communication skills, behavior management, etc.  Prevocational Services - Can be provided in a variety of settings, and focus on developing generalized skills that prepare a person for employment. Typical examples include attendance, safety skills, following directions, and staying on task.  Supported Employment - Assists in obtaining and keeping a job in the community. Assists in placing the individual in a job in a regular work setting with persons without disabilities at minimum wage or higher, and provides support to maintain the job. Typical examples would include: skills assessments, consultation with the employer, job coaching, and behavior management.
