The Brain Injury (BI) Waiver Program began providing services through CCHHH&PH in May of 2003.  The Bl Waiver Program provides Home and Community Based Services to persons diagnosed with a brain injury in order for the client to be able to remain in his or her home for as long as possible.

CCHHH&PH receives referrals for the BI Waiver services through Crawford County DHS.  Brain injury may result from such things as trauma, stroke, bleeding in the brain, a tumor, or multiple other causes. The services provided through CCHHH&PH at this time are Supported Community Living (SCL) and Consumer Directed Attendant Care (CDAC). SCL involves assistance to the client with community and daily living skills. Goals are set by the client or family to work towards. CDAC provides assistance to the client with self-care tasks, which the client would otherwise do for him/herself if able. Home Care Aides provide the services in the client's home and in the community. Home Health Nurses are utilized as necessary.
