Your Individual Service Plan
If you
have never received Supported Living services before the first step is to
have a meeting to decide what
types
of things you may
want or need help with.
This is called an Individual
Service Plan or ISP meeting. Your County Board Service Coordinator will
schedule this meeting. You can ask anyone you want to come to the meeting to
help you decide on the areas of your life where you want or need support.
Once
you begin to receive services an ISP meeting will be held 1 time each year
to make sure you are getting the support you want and need. Your County
Board Service Coordinator will schedule this meeting. You can ask anyone you
want to come to the meeting to help you make sure you are getting the
support
you want and need.
More
meetings (sometimes referred to as addendums or addendum meetings) can be
held, if you ask for or need changes in the support you get before the yearly
ISP meeting.
Before
each ISP meeting your
County Board Service Coordinator will meet
with you and anyone else you want to invite to ask questions about what you
want or need help with. This is called an
assessment.
After
your ISP meeting your service coordinator will take this information and
decide 2 things:
What things your service provider will help you with.
AND
How
much help you will receive.
