Residential Daily Services provide individualized support and supervision to help individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities live safely, successfully, and as independently as possible in their homes and communities. Services are delivered according to each individual's Person-Centered Support Plan and are designed to meet their unique needs, preferences, strengths, and goals while ensuring their health, safety, welfare, and rights are protected.
These services include assistance with activities of daily living, personal care, health and medication support, meal preparation, transportation, community participation, relationship building, behavioral supports, and household management. Caregivers also provide teaching, coaching, and guidance to help individuals develop, maintain, and improve skills that promote greater independence, self-determination, and quality of life.
As part of Colorado's Developmental Disabilities (DD) Waiver program, Residential Daily Services serve as a community-based alternative to institutional care. The focus of the program is not only to provide supervision and support, but also to help individuals actively participate in their communities, pursue personal goals, strengthen natural supports, and achieve meaningful outcomes while living in the least restrictive environment possible.
