Guided Care Services
Mission
Guided Care Services is a licensed Sponsored Residential provider serving adults individuals with Developmental Disabilities and their families. The agency is dedicated to advocate for individual’s rights and providing options to individuals receiving services needed to ensure their health, safety, quality of life and additional supports to enhance their abilities while living in a Sponsored Family style environment.
The overarching philosophy of Guided Care Services is a respect for the right of every individual with developmental disabilities to exercise control in pursuing, developing, achieving, and maintaining a quality of life consistent with their preferences and choices. Our philosophy in supporting people with developmental disabilities is that when a person and members of their natural support network (i.e., family, friends, neighbors, etc.) decide that the person needs and wants professional support, that support should be blended with natural support. These supports should be provided in a respectful manner that ensures the individual controls their own choices for their life to include:
Consistent with this philosophy, the agency value--above all else--the empowerment of the person with developmental disabilities (with help, as appropriate, from members of their natural support network) to control their own life and, accordingly, to make choices that exemplify that control. Beyond this, and consistent with an individual's personal preferences and choices, we value the right of people with developmental disabilities to have an active presence and participation in community life including, but not limited to:

- how support needs are identified
- how support services are delivered
- how outcomes associated with support are defined and determined, and how and when support services are reviewed and revised based on changes in the individual’s support needs and preferences.
