What if your loved one could gain the skills they need to live a more independent and fulfilling life? At Advanced Developmental Disabilities Services (ADDS), we see this potential every day. Unlike rehabilitation, which helps someone regain skills, habilitation focuses on building new ones from the ground up. But who exactly needs habilitation services? Let's explore who can benefit most from this life-changing support.
Who Needs Habilitation Services
Who Needs Habilitation Services
Individuals With Developmental Disabilities
Habilitation services are designed specifically for individuals with developmental disabilities. This includes people with conditions such as cerebral palsy, autism, Down syndrome, intellectual disabilities, or epilepsy, among others. Our habilitation programs are not about regaining lost skills, but rather about developing new ones from the ground up.
Children and Adults Needing Skill Development
Habilitation services are beneficial for both children and adults. For children, our programs focus on building foundational skills like language, fine and gross motor skills, and social interaction. For adults, the focus often shifts to more advanced daily living skills such as cooking, managing money, using public transportation, and maintaining a household.
Anyone Striving for Greater Independence
Ultimately, habilitation is a service for anyone who desires to live a more independent life. Our approach is centered on empowerment. We provide one-on-one, in-home training that is tailored to each individual's goals, whether it’s learning to complete a daily routine, participating in community activities, or developing vocational skills.
Families Seeking Respite and Support
Beyond the individual, habilitation therapy also provide crucial support for the entire family. As a loved one learns new skills, they become more self-sufficient, reducing some of the daily demands on caregivers. By empowering individuals with the tools for greater independence, we are also giving families a lasting sense of relief and well-being.
