The South Dakota Residential Habilitation Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering residential habilitation services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) across South Dakota. This manual aligns with the regulations established by the South Dakota Department of Human Services (DHS), specifically the Division of Developmental Disabilities, and ensures compliance with Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver programs such as the CHOICES Waiver. The manual includes policies and procedures governing agency certification and enrollment, participant eligibility and assessment, person-centered service planning, assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), skill-building in areas such as self-care, communication, and home management, community integration, staff qualifications and training, participant rights and protections, medication administration, emergency preparedness, health and safety protocols, incident reporting, documentation and billing, and quality assurance. It emphasizes individualized, 24-hour support that enables participants to live as independently as possible in community-based residential settings. This manual serves as a foundational resource for residential habilitation providers in South Dakota, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, person-centered, and compliant services that support the dignity, independence, and inclusion of individuals with developmental disabilities.
