Residential support and training for adults who live in their own apartment within an Alchemy Home Healthcare ICS setting.
What is ICS?
Integrated Community Supports (ICS) is a residential waiver service for adults who choose to live in a supported apartment setting. Each person has their own living unit in a multi-family building where Alchemy Home Healthcare is the service provider. People keep their own space, routines, and privacy, with trained staff available to help when they need it.
How our staff can help
ICS provides support and training in at least one of four areas, based on each person’s assessed needs and goals:
- Community participation: getting around the community safely, using local resources, building friendships and support networks
- Health, safety, and wellness: arranging appointments, cueing and guidance with self-care, and building healthy routines
- Household management: cooking and meal planning, budgeting, household chores, shopping, and tenancy support
- Adaptive skills: problem-solving, crisis prevention, and positive support strategies
Who it’s for
- Adults age 18 or older
- On the CADI Waiver (ICS is also available under the BI, CAC, and DD waivers)
- Who choose to live and receive services in an ICS apartment setting
Good to know: ICS settings have three or more living units. Staff are available to respond to residents’ needs 24 hours a day. Contact us to ask about current openings.
