Information Request

Message from the Office of Developmental Programs (ODP):

Dear Intermediate Care Facility for Intellectual Disabilities (ICF/IDs) and Community Home Provider:

The Department of Human Services (DHS) has a critical need for updated vaccine uptake information as a result of the recent increase in COVID-19 cases and recent news related to boosters. We need your help to gather this important information. Please complete this brief survey by 5:00 pm on Tuesday, August 31, 2021.

This survey is part of a larger effort to obtain a point-in-time view of the vaccination rate of staff and residents in all facilities licensed by DHS. For the number of staff, please use the count for those currently employed and who work within the licensed residential setting(s) operated by your agency (even if they might not come into direct contact with individuals receiving services).

We realize that you have provided this information in the past; you will note that this survey is much shorter than previous versions (Residential Providers complete for agency, not by licensed home) and should take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete.

For any questions regarding this survey, please contact ODP.

Thank you for your support in our ongoing fight against COVID-19.

Please register here to participate in the member update webinar. We look forward to your participation!

In addition to the above announcements, the following information may be of interest to Human Resource professionals. It is offered by Maher Duessel and free to our members:

December Accounting Webinar and PPP Loan Updates

Save the date and register for December continuing professional education (CPE)! Maher Duessel will host their annual Government Update on December 17, 2020 and December 18, 2020. This eight-credit CPE session (four credits per day) will focus on governmental accounting, auditing, and regulatory topics. Staff and board members from governments and non-profits are encouraged to attend. There is no cost to participate, and CPE certificates will be issued. Also, the US Small Business Administration released guidance last month clarifying that lenders must recognize the previously established extended deferral period for payments on the principal, interest, and fees on all Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans. Read this blog post on how this guidance impacts loan forgiveness for your organization’s PPP loan.
