Person-centered practices and principles: A way of ensuring people who receive supports and services have the same rights and responsibilities as other people. This includes having control over their lives, making their own choices and contributing to the community in a way that makes sense for themselves. Person-centered practices include:
• Tools everyone can use to learn more about a person
• Person-centered changes made in schools and human services settings.
Minnesota is moving toward person-centered practices in all areas of service delivery. As a state, Minnesota strives to make sure everyone who receives long-term services and supports and mental health services can live, learn, work and enjoy life in the most integrated environment of their choice. The goal is for people to lead lives that are meaningful to them.
To do this, we must have a person-centered support system that helps people:
• Build or maintain relationships with their families and friends
• Live as independently as possible
• Engage in productive activities, such as employment
Lead agencies must use the Person-Centered, Informed Choice and Transition Protocol, DHS-3825 (PDF) to implement person-centered practices in support planning.
Home and community-based service providers
Home and community-based service providers are required to provide services in:
• Response to the person’s identified needs, interests, preferences and desired outcomes as specified in the person’s plan
• A manner consistent with the principles of person-centered service planning and delivery, self-determination, the most integrated environment and inclusive service delivery options.
Providers are also required to use positive supports in place of restrictive interventions. This includes:
• Incorporating the principles of person-centeredness into the services provided
• Evaluating with the person whether the services support the person’s preferences, daily needs and activities and accomplishment of the person’s desired outcomes.
Sources of person-centered practice requirements
There are multiple sources requiring DHS to ensure home and community-based services are person-centered. These are:
• Minnesota’s Olmstead Plan
• Jensen Settlement
• CMS home and community-based services (HCBS) rule
• Licensing standards required by 245D
• Positive supports rule.
