Professional Services Needed

Embrace Life provides activities designed to enhance the ability of the child to function as part of a family unit to increase the family’s ability to care for the child in the home and in community-based settings.

For all of our provided services, we will give input as part of the team when an Individualized Support Plan (ISP) is being developed for our individuals, and see to it that the ISP is the reference point in providing services. We will also be in close communication with the families/caregivers of the individuals served to ensure that the delivery of services is meeting expectations.

Families should know the type of service and the amount of authorizations they are approved for from the Division of Developmental Disabilities. Each family is different in their need of services. Embrace Life Inc. will make sure you have the correct services that you were authorized for, and ensure they are being used accurately. If you are not sure, we will work closely with your Support Coordinator to ensure you have all services to meet your needs.

Embrace Life, Inc. provides programming that is designed to meet the individual needs of each member and their families and explore opportunities to improve their daily independent living skills. Our member(s) learn to develop skills that will introduce them to the benefits of leading a healthy and positive lifestyle. Members have the opportunity to learn and recognize the values and principles associated with being independent and receive guidance in self-esteem and respect issues, and structured life skills. Our management staff work hard to establish meaningful relationships with the families and to be role models for the member. We currently have and will continue to focus on having a strong emphasis on constant improvement within the agency and maintaining good relationships with parents, guardians, and Support Coordinators.

Can I Get Paid to Care for a Family Member?

The answer is Yes. Embrace Life provide programs that pay family members to care for loved ones at home. This can be some type of respite, Attendant Care, or temporary relief for family caregivers. Families often won't pay their family members on a regular basis to provide home care leaving big gaps in caregiver services. We are here to help your loved one! Contact us to get this started.
