The Ohio Community Respite Services Policy Manual provides a comprehensive regulatory and operational framework for agencies delivering community-based respite services under the Ohio Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waiver. It aligns with the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC 5123-9-22), Ohio Revised Code §5126.13, and federal Medicaid Waiver standards to ensure full compliance with state and federal regulatory requirements.
This manual includes detailed policies and procedures for administration, client service management, clinical protocols, environmental and safety standards, staff roles, and regulatory compliance. It also contains guidance on specialized service delivery areas such as caregiver relief, recreational safety, adaptive equipment use, and transportation safety for individuals with developmental disabilities.
The manual serves as both a compliance tool and a quality assurance guide for provider agencies, supporting safe, effective, and person-centered respite care services. Each section is designed to align operational practices with Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) expectations, Medicaid billing integrity, HIPAA privacy rules, and ADA accessibility standards. It also addresses risk management, documentation protocols, and staff competency validation.
