TO PROVIDE QUALITY RESIDENT SERVICES FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH DIFFICULTIES.

RESIDENT FEES:PENN CENTER HAS SERVED 479 INDIVIDUALS WITH CHRONIC MENTAL ILLNESS AND/OR INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. PENN CENTER PROVIDES A CONTINUUM OF SERVICES THAT ALLOWS FOR INDIVIDUALS TO ACCESS VARIOUS SERVICES AT DIFFERENT STAGES OF THEIR RECOVERY. THIS CONTINUUM INCLUDES THE MOST RESTRICTIVE WITH 24 HOUR RESIDENTIAL CARE FACILITY (RCF), HABILITATION/COMMUNITY BASED SERVICES (12-24 HOURS), MORE TRADITIONAL SCL/HOURLY SERVICES AND GROUP SETTING OF DAY HABILITATION. WE RECOGNIZE THE NEED FOR PROVIDING SERVICES TO ASSIST THE INDIVIDUALS IN TRANSITIONING FROM 24-HOUR CARE TO THE COMMUNITY IN ADDITION TO HELPING THOSE WE SERVE TO REGAIN LOST SKILLS ALLOWING THEM TO BE AS INDEPENDENT AS POSSIBLE. THE BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY IS THE AVAILABILITY OF 24 HOUR CARE SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS WHICH ALLOWS THEM TO LIVE CLOSER TO THEIR NATURAL SUPPORT SYSTEMS, ALLOWS FOR STAFF ON SITE TO PROBLEM SOLVE BOTH MENTAL HEALTH AND PHYSICAL HEALTH NEEDS AND ASSISTS THEM IN ACCESSING THE MOST APPROPRIATE COMMUNITY SUPPORTS. THE RESULT OF THE UP TO 24-HOUR DAILY SUPPORT PROVIDES MEMBERS WITH SUPPORT AND STRUCTURE THAT AIDES THEM IN BEING INVOLVED IN COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES, EMPLOYMENT OR VOLUNTEERING. AS A RESULT OF THE SUPPORT, THESE SERVICES REDUCE A RESPONSIBILITY TO THE GOVERNMENT BECAUSE MOST RESIDENTS SERVED BY PENN CENTER HAVE LITTLE TO NO RESOURCES, ARE ON SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY OR INDIGENT. IN THE ABSENCE OF VARYING LEVEL OF SERVICE, WOULD IMPACT THOSE THAT BENEFIT FROM THE STRUCTURE AND STABILITY AND IN SOME CASES, MAY RESULT IN A HIGHER LEVEL OF CARE WHICH WOULD BE PAID FOR BY MEDICARE, MEDICAID, AND COUNTY TAX DOLLARS. PROVIDING THIS SERVICE ALLOWS FOR TREATMENT AND SERVICES TO ASSIST INDIVIDUALS WITH FOLLOWING THROUGH WITH TREATMENT RECOMMENDATIONS THUS REDUCING THE NEED FOR RE-OCCURRING HIGHER AND MORE COSTLY SERVICES.
