Family Care Homes Needed
Bethesda’s
Family Care Home service is a family-style arrangement where a
family or a single person cares for one or two adults with
developmental disabilities in their home. Each Family Care
Home strives to foster an individual’s independence and
quality of life, while recognizing the need for
interdependence and support. In providing room, board and
personal support for the individual(s), the care provider
would receive a contract that includes guidelines of care,
reporting requirements as well as remuneration. Payment for
services is based on a “Level” funding formula ($1,200 to
$2,200 per month range) and is determined by the amount of
support that an individual requires. Additionally, each Family
Care Home would receive respite care funds to allow the care
giver regular breaks in providing support. Each Family Care
Home would receive ongoing support from the agency.
Prospective
caregivers should give thoughtful consideration and seek out
information before assuming the role of professional
caregiver. Providing 24-hour care to another person requires
an individual with unique characteristics. It is not a role
that everyone can successfully assume. For those who are
suited, family care becomes a lifestyle choice that can be
extremely rewarding. A compatible placement enriches their
lives and the lives of their family members. Family members
need to decide what supports they would need, and what
adjustments would be required. Your family should also
recognize its strengths and its limitations. Bethesda will
help to determine what type of person would be most compatible
with your family. What personality traits, hobbies, interests,
energy level and routine would the individual(s) have, in
order to have a good match with a family?
LANGLEY
AREA: Bethesda is seeking a Christian Home in the
Langley area for a gentleman with developmental disabilities
who is in need of a loving, safe environment and supportive
care. An understanding of seizure disorder would be an
asset.
