Adult Developmental Health (ADH)
The goal of health care for patients with developmental disabilities is to improve their well-being, function, and participation in family and community. It is not always necessary or desirable to try to change a person’s traits and characteristics to make them appear or behave more normally. The distinction between the medical, neurodiversity, and social models has important implications for medical care.
Individualized Habilitation Support
Sweetwater Care provides a unique, specialized service to ensure meaningful and quality-driven habilitation. Sweetwater Care members have access to additional supports to review goals to confirm alignment with current needs as well as train providers and caregivers on individualized goal implementation and strategies. In addition to the above supports, the Habilitation Specialists provide a training series for providers to enhance their overall habilitation skill set. These trainings include topics such as goal implementation, behavior management, and strategies for success.
