Individualized Home Support (IHS)

Our IHS program supports individuals who have a waiver through the Connecticut Department of Developmental Services (DDS). Services are personalized and goal-oriented tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual and include in-home assistance with activities of daily living such as:

• Bathing, dressing, and grooming
• Medication reminders
• Meal planning and preparation
• Budgeting and money management
• Light housekeeping

This program empowers individuals to live as independently as possible in a safe, structured, and supportive home environment, while also helping them build life skills, maintain routines, and engage with their communities.

• Group IHS Options:
• Individual IHS – One-on-one support from a dedicated staff member.
• Group IHS (Group 2) – One staff member provides care for two individuals with similar routines and compatible support needs, encouraging peer interaction and collaboration.
• Group IHS (Group 3) – One staff member supports three individuals, promoting shared activities, routine coordination, and efficient service delivery, while maintaining individualized attention.

These flexible models allow us to deliver high-quality care while promoting social connection, autonomy, and cost-effectiveness for families and support teams.
