The Georgia Nursing Facility Transition Services Policy Manual provides a comprehensive framework for agencies assisting individuals in transitioning from nursing facilities to community-based living arrangements in Georgia. This manual aligns with the Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH) regulations, Medicaid waiver requirements under the Money Follows the Person (MFP) program, the Comprehensive Supports Waiver Program (COMP), and New Options Waiver (NOW), as well as other applicable state and federal standards to ensure compliance with service delivery, documentation, and quality assurance requirements. The manual includes policies on eligibility determination, pre-transition assessments, individualized transition planning, coordination of housing and community supports, access to assistive technology and home modifications, client rights, staff qualifications and training, safety protocols, post-transition follow-up services, documentation standards, and program evaluation. It emphasizes person-centered planning principles to ensure that transitions are safe, seamless, and tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals while promoting independence and integration into the community. This policy manual serves as a vital resource for agencies facilitating nursing facility transitions that empower individuals to regain autonomy and improve their quality of life.
