Welcome families, friends and neighbors, as well as paid caregivers, to the care team. Everyone who is not poor pays what they can toward the cost of care. Taxpayers support services for people based on their level of disability and need for financial help. People with disabilities who want to work are enabled to do so by getting the supports they need, while paying what they can for health and long term care. People who use services report on the quality of care and information they get.
Quality is measured by comparing how well different people thrive with the care they receive.
Privacy and self-determination are required in service delivery and protection of information. Safety and rights are protected. The flexible services currently available in Wisconsin's Community Options Program continue to be available. High quality nursing homes, residential facilities, apartments and community and day service providers continue to be supported. Care coordination and service management designed to address individual preferences and goals are required in every service setting.
