Background:Grace Home is a community care facility which provides supplemental residential care services on an "as needed" basis for the Mental Health Department. Normally basic living expenses for a resident of this facility will be paid by Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a federal income supplement program. The supplemental services covered under this agreement include supportive and rehabilitative services. The goal of the provided services is to encourage self reliance and meet the specialized needs of the residents.
Reason for Recommendation:The Mental Health Department at times has a need to place patients in a residential care facility when they leave the Psychiatric Health Facility (PHF) and are not able to return to their own homes. Placement at a community care facility can often take the place of more expensive care options.
Action to be taken following Board approval:Board Clerk's Office will forward the executed agreement to Mental Health for further processing. CAO's Procurement and Contracts Division will create a blanket purchase order.
