The South Dakota Adaptive Equipment Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering adaptive equipment services to individuals with disabilities, chronic conditions, or age-related limitations in South Dakota. This manual aligns with the regulations established by the South Dakota Department of Human Services (DHS), including the Division of Developmental Disabilities and Division of Rehabilitation Services, and ensures compliance with applicable Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver programs. It also supports the implementation of the federal Assistive Technology Act and state-specific equipment access initiatives. The manual includes policies and procedures governing agency enrollment and certification, participant eligibility and needs assessment, adaptive equipment evaluations, selection, procurement, customization, delivery, training and user support, maintenance and repair services, staff qualifications and training, participant rights and protections, equipment safety standards, documentation and billing, incident reporting, and quality assurance. It promotes a person-centered approach that supports function, independence, and quality of life across home, work, educational, and community settings. This manual serves as a foundational resource for adaptive equipment providers in South Dakota, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, compliant services that enable individuals to access the tools and supports necessary to live safely and independently.
