The Adult Evaluation and Review Services aim to assist functionally challenged and chronically ill adults eighteen years of age and older in maintaining a quality lifestyle in their place of residence, despite the trials that they face. This is done through a face-to-face clinical evaluation, conducted by a nurse or a social worker. This evaluation assesses the physical, social and emotional aspects of the client’s life. The client and his/her family then work closely with the AERS team to devise a plan that identifies and accesses community resources for which the client is eligible. We hope the resources will pave the client's way to a more fulfilling and able lifestyle. The AERS Team Provides: - Comprehensive, professional assessments by licensed RN’s and licensed social workers
- Plans of care that address the holistic approach to a client’s needs
- Referrals for community resources that are both eligibility based and available to everyone
- Physical assessments for homebound clients
- Mental health counseling and referral
- Short-term case management
- Assessment and plans of care for individuals with mental retardation and mental illness who require nursing home placement
- Education to clients, families, and professionals about resources, levels of care, and other various biopsychosocial topics, including the availability of speakers
Eligibility: The Adult Evaluation and Review Services Program is available to all persons eighteen and older, regardless of income or assets. It is a free service.
