In-Home Health Care Services
Intake, Assessment, and Individualized Service Planning
Cornerstone conducts a structured intake and assessment process to identify each child’s functional needs, physical limitations, environmental supports, and family priorities.
Intake, Assessment, and Individualized Service Planning
Services are developed in collaboration with the parent or legal guardian and are based on medical documentation, functional assessment, and approved service authorization. An individualized support plan is established to address mobility, positioning, safety, and participation in daily routines. Plans include measurable goals, risk considerations, and defined caregiver responsibilities.
Services are reviewed and updated according to DMH requirements, care coordination guidance, and changes in the child’s condition or functioning.
Daily Routine Participation
Daily routines are opportunities for independence.
We support children as they participate in everyday activities at a pace that is safe and appropriate for their abilities. Our role is to assist when needed, encourage participation, and help children remain comfortable and supported throughout their routines.
