Residential Programs:
 ICFs/MR
Program
ICFs/MR, which are health care facilities for long term residents, generally
serve people with more severe disabilities than non-ICF/MR residential
services. These facilities generally offer a wide array of therapies,
and an on-site medical staff to meet the complex and changing needs of
clients, while also providing support to families. Personal and support
services add to the quality of life and help motivate clients to learn
practical life skills in socialization, employment, recreation, etc. ICFs/MR,
whose clients range from youngsters to the elderly, often serve as a true
home, with staff becoming a second and sometimes sole family for some
residents.
