Significant Improvement or Growth on a Long Term Basis
The significant growth or improvements will be ensured if every responsible state agency for the provision of developmental disability services has the necessary resources to undertake actively and enforce the necessary functions. As discussed by Gettings (2009), particular initiatives that ensure community inclusion and reflecting independence and productivity of the beneficiaries of the services ensure sustainability on long-term basis. Funds must be availed on necessary premises and service providers trained on maximizing the use of resources without waste to ensure that any support available is used to benefit the target group fully (Gettings, 2009). Availing well-equipped residential care facilities continued training and ascertaining qualifications needed to provide high-quality services over time also ensure sustainability. Technical assistance, favorable policies and workforce stabilization highly help residential agencies in their operations and quality improvements (Gettings, 2009).
2.9 Requirements for Residential Care Facilities for Establishment and Funding
Every state administration or departments have regulatory requirements that must be met by set-up facilities that provide disability services. There are regulatory standards, and criteria that are pre-set that any institution that offers services must comply to in order to be licensed. The facilities are set up or run in areas that the states have specific interest in a group that the same service targets may benefit from specific waivers that the government may offer. The centers must define their services and ensure that there are those that encourage earlier detection, target improvement of physical and clinical wellbeing and are not likely to cause harm to the individuals targeted. The services must be cost effective and comply with the set regulations.
