At Team RMS, we are committed to providing compassionate and person-centered care to individuals with developmental disabilities across Ohio. One of the core services we offer is Supported Living services, a vital program that empowers individuals to live as independently as possible while receiving the assistance they need to thrive.

What are Support Living Services?

Supported Living is a service designed to assist individuals with developmental disabilities in living independently in their own homes or apartments. Unlike traditional group home settings, Supported Living services are tailored to each person’s unique needs and preferences. The goal is to help individuals live in the community, participate in everyday activities, and make choices about their lives, all while receiving personalized support when necessary.

RMS of Ohio’s Supported Living program empowers individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and behavioral health needs to live independently in their own homes or apartments while actively participating in their communities. This program is funded by Medicaid through individual options (IO) waivers.

This service is accessible to private pay individuals, as well as those who qualify for support through county boards of developmental disabilities or Medicaid waiver programs. We offer supported living services at numerous locations across the state of Ohio.

Personalized Care and Support:

At Team RMS, we understand that no two individuals are alike, and we are proud to offer individualized services that reflect the unique strengths and needs of each person we support. Our Supported Living program provides a range of services, including assistance with daily living activities, personal care, medication management, and skill-building.

Team RMS staff provide personalized in-home support tailored to individual needs, whether it’s a daily visit or just an hour each week. Their assistance spans a variety of essential activities, such as personal care, financial management, shopping, housekeeping, meal preparation, and engaging in community outings, ensuring comprehensive support for those they serve.

We work closely with each person and their family to create a customized care plan that encourages independence, fosters growth, and ensures the safety and well-being of every individual. Whether it’s helping with meal preparation, managing household chores, or providing support with social activities, our team is dedicated to helping individuals achieve their personal goals.

Creating a Sense of Belonging and Community:

Supported Living is not just about providing physical care—it’s also about creating a sense of community and belonging. At Team RMS, we encourage individuals to engage with their local communities, form relationships, and participate in activities that bring them joy and fulfillment.

At RMS of Ohio, we empower individuals in our program to actively engage in their communities by living, working, and participating in activities that align with their interests and goals. Our dedicated staff supports individuals in exploring activities they are passionate about while also introducing new opportunities they may not have experienced before, fostering growth, and enriching their lives.

Whether it’s going to a local event, volunteering, or taking part in recreational activities, we help our clients build meaningful connections outside of their home environments.

Independence with a Safety Net:

While Supported Living promotes independence, we understand that everyone needs a little help sometimes. Our team of experienced caregivers is always available to provide assistance and ensure that individuals have the support they need to remain safe and comfortable. This balance of independence and support is the foundation of our approach, allowing individuals to experience life on their own terms while knowing that assistance is available when needed.
