  Adult Residential Care Homes

  BH-8400.6000-040
  
  Residential homes or facilities that offer personal care and individual attention for older adults, people with disabilities and other populations whose limitations prevent them from living alone. Adult residential care homes (which are also known as board and care homes, residential board and care homes, personal care homes or residential care facilities for the elderly) generally provide a room (which may be shared), meals and supervision; and may specialize in populations with specific needs such as people with Alzheimer's disease or those with developmental disabilities. Services vary from facility to facility but may include dietary and housekeeping services, monitoring of prescription medication, social and recreational opportunities, incontinence care and assistance with toileting, bathing, grooming, dressing, mobility and other activities of daily living. Some homes provide secured surroundings for confused elderly adults who may wander while others are unable to accept individuals who are incontinent or who have severe problems with memory loss. There is considerable variation among these homes in terms of size, resident mix, daily charges and services. Most but not all adult residential care homes or facilities are licensed by the state in which they are located.

• Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (1)
  RP-8000.8510

  Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

  RP-8000.8510
  
  A noninvasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. An electromagnetic coil is placed against the patient's scalp near the forehead. The electromagnet painlessly delivers a magnetic pulse that stimulates nerve cells in the region of the brain involved in mood control and depression, and may activate regions of the brain that have decreased activity in people with depression. TMS is typically used when other depression treatments haven't been effective; and because the treatment involves delivering repetitive magnetic pulses, it's called repetitive TMS or rTMS. Common side effects may include headache; scalp discomfort at the stimulation site; tingling, spasms or twitching of facial muscles; and lightheadedness. Uncommon side effects are rare and may include seizures, mania (particularly in people with bipolar disorder) and hearing loss if there is inadequate ear protection during treatment.

• Wraparound Facilitation/Community Support (9)
  PH-2360.9500

  Wraparound Facilitation/Community Support

  PH-2360.9500
  
  Programs that employ the Wraparound Facilitation model, a family centered, community-oriented, strengths based and highly individualized approach to meet the needs of children with complicated, multi-dimensional problems. The approach involves the development of a child and family team which creates and implements a wraparound plan that identifies a set of community services and natural supports to promote success, safety, and permanence in home, school and community. The Wraparound facilitator coordinates team meetings and ensures the team identifies and prioritizes goals, provides crisis and safety planning, and tracks the family's progress towards goal attainment. The family is prepared and supported as they transition from formal services to independence. While the major initiative to develop Wraparound Facilitation originated with the mental health system and has been particularly successful for children and adolescents with severe emotional and behavioral problems, the intervention is being employed in a number of other child service sectors including education, juvenile justice and child welfare.
