STAT is a new waiver service available to individuals in the Person/Family Directed Support (P/FDS), Community Living, and Consolidated Waiver programs.

It provides 24/7 access to physicians with extensive education and experience within the IDA population 365 days a year, who triage and evaluate medical conditions as needed. This webinar will provide an in-depth look at the STAT waiver service, how it works, and the benefit to participants.

The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) has shared this important announcement from FEMA and the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers (RCI).

In recognition of caregivers’ dedication and commitment to those in their care, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers (RCI) have created the Disaster Preparedness Guide for Caregivers to help them navigate unique challenges that may arise during disasters.

When forced to evacuate, relocate to emergency shelters, or find temporary housing, care recipients and caregivers require support and services that meet them where they are and account for unmet needs. FEMA is pleased to announce this new guide that focuses on the lived experience of caregivers who often serve as a lifeline for others, whether the skies are blue or gray.

See the new guide for the three essential steps that can help caregivers feel more prepared and in control when disaster strikes.
