Support for living in the community.
Summit helps eligible New Yorkers explore and receive community-based supports through the Nursing Home Transition and Diversion and Traumatic Brain Injury waiver programs.
What these programs are designed to do
NHTD and TBI waiver services are intended to help eligible individuals live in the community rather than in an institutional setting, supporting independence, safety and personal goals.
Service Coordination
Our service coordinator assists the applicant in becoming a waiver participant and coordinates and monitors the provision of all services in the service plan once the individual is determined eligible.
Home & Community Support Services (HCSS)
Our personal care aides provide Home and Community Support Services to a waiver participant who requires assistance with personal care services and whose health and welfare in the community are at risk.
How Summit helps
Understand the situation
We start with the individual’s current setting, needs, goals and where they are in the waiver process.
Clarify relevant supports
Summit helps families understand which Summit services may fit within the participant’s approved plan.
Put services in place
When Summit is an appropriate provider, the team coordinates the next steps needed to begin support.
Who should contact Summit?
Individuals, families, discharge teams, service coordinators and other professionals can contact Summit to discuss a potential NHTD or TBI service need.
