Summary of how the American's With Disabilities Act requires governmental agencies to provide appropriate accomodations of their services to people with disabilities including cognitive limitations
The Florida Department of Elder Affairs serves as the state unit on aging and is responsible for developing and administering the state plan for aging services. It oversees area agencies on aging that provide services like home-delivered meals and case management to help seniors live independently. The department operates programs like Communities for a Lifetime and Aging Resource Centers to support seniors and prevent nursing home placements. It also oversees consumer advocacy services for vulnerable elders.
Medicaid is a government health insurance program that can be used to offer services in supportive housing programs. Under the new Health Care Reform law, virtually all homeless people will be eligible, and can benefit from configuring supportive housing services to take advantage of Medicaid reimbursement. Consideration will be given to the administrative and data burdens inherited when a housing provider becomes eligible for reimbursement from Medicaid/medical assistance, as well as the benefits of delivering a flexible array of supports to maintain persons in their homes.

This document discusses how human rights apply to adults with intellectual disabilities. It notes that historically, individuals with intellectual disabilities faced segregation, institutionalization, and a lack of basic human rights. However, laws like the ADA, CRIPA, and IDEA have helped protect the rights of those with intellectual disabilities and require their integration into community-based settings. A 2008 investigation found that Virginia institutions were not complying with these laws. As a result, Virginia agreed to transition residents out of institutions and into more integrated community-based housing and services by 2020.
The document discusses the Community Living Assistance Services and Support (CLASS) program, a voluntary long-term care program established under the Affordable Care Act. The purpose of CLASS is to help individuals maintain independence, address long-term community care needs, support family caregivers, and create a financing option for long-term services. It will allow employees to pay monthly premiums to receive guaranteed long-term care benefits. Employers will be required to provide education to employees about CLASS and use automatic enrollment procedures similar to 401(k) plans. While CLASS may help cover long-term care costs, private long-term care insurance still has benefits like more flexible coverage and immediate protection.
The document discusses prosthetic and orthotic parity laws, which require insurance companies to provide coverage for prosthetics and orthotics on par with other medical benefits. It provides background on the issue, including that 19 states have passed such laws. It urges readers to get involved by educating legislators and participating in advocacy efforts to pass similar laws at the federal level. Studies cited found that parity laws have little cost impact but reduce healthcare costs over time by improving patients' quality of life and reducing secondary medical issues.
The document summarizes recent federal legislative activity related to autism and disability services. It discusses funding amounts for autism research and services through the Combating Autism Act. It also provides updates on health care reform legislation and bills addressing issues like insurance coverage of autism treatment, long term services and supports, reducing restraint and seclusion in schools, and reauthorizing acts related to education, workforce development, and developmental disabilities.
This chapter explores the major forms of social insurance in the United States: Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI); Unemployment Insurance (UI); and Workers’ Compensation. In addition, this chapter explores some of the major issues and problems surrounding social insurance programs.
This document summarizes the reasons for and key aspects of North Carolina's 2001 mental health system reform. The goals of the reform were to increase local control and governance, promote accountability, and shift away from reliance on institutions by increasing community-based services. The reform established Local Management Entities (LMEs) at the county level to oversee services provided by networks of community providers. It also aimed to focus the system on serving those most in need, increase evidence-based practices, and require more consumer and family input. Major challenges of fully implementing the reform included developing community treatment capacity, addressing inadequate funding, and transitioning from the existing institution-focused system.
Enrolling homeless people in HUD programs and other public benefits is a major hurdle in ending homelessness – and even more so if those being enrolled are immigrants. This workshop will focus on the eligibility requirements and disqualifications for several federal programs. Speakers will also touch on the difference between federal and local limitations on access to public housing.
The document discusses several topics related to guardianship, nursing home complaints, and rights of nursing home residents in Virginia. It proposes strategies to incorporate person-centered language and practices into public guardianship programs. It also discusses proposed bills aimed at strengthening the nursing home complaint investigation process and ensuring the right of readmission to nursing homes after hospitalization. Additionally, it talks about the importance of the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System for collecting data on Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
This presentation explains what Medicaid program is, who it protects, the creation of the coverage gap and what Medicaid advocacy looks like in the state of Georgia.

Texas: Self-determination with Consumer Directed ServicesNASHP HealthPolicy
Texas has a consumer directed services (CDS) program that gives long-term care recipients some control over their services while operating within the constraints of waiver programs and rules. CDS allows individuals to hire and manage their own attendants but does not provide a cash option. While utilization has increased in recent years, the program faces challenges in outreach, oversight, and budget flexibility. Future considerations include expanding recipient responsibilities and establishing a self-determination waiver.
The document discusses new regulations implementing the ADA Amendments Act that go into effect on May 24, 2011. The regulations make it easier to meet the definition of a disability by expanding what is considered a disability and limiting consideration of mitigating factors. They reinforce employers' responsibilities to provide reasonable accommodations and prohibit discrimination. Employers should review their policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the new regulations.
This presentation provides an overview of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) for supervisors. The ADA protects individuals with disabilities from employment discrimination and requires reasonable accommodations. A disability is defined broadly as a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity. Employers must consider accommodations that allow applicants and employees to perform essential job functions without undue hardship. Noncompliance with the ADA can result in costly lawsuits and damage an employer's reputation.
This document provides a sample presentation on effective meetings for employees. The presentation covers: reasons to have meetings such as providing information and reaching consensus; reasons not to have meetings if information is incomplete or hostility is too high; how to prepare for meetings by establishing objectives, choosing times and locations, and developing agendas; how to conduct meetings by starting on time, reviewing agendas, encouraging discussion, and summarizing decisions; and following up after meetings by distributing minutes and scheduling future meetings if needed.
Accommodation Conversation: Strategies for Effective ADA Reasonable Accommoda...America's Job Exchange
America's Job Exchange (AJE) hosted a webinar in August to discuss provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). A hallmark of the ADA is the provision of reasonable accommodation to ensure equality in the workplace. This webinar will discuss what is reasonable accommodation. How is disclosure of disability handled? What are my responsibilities when someone discloses? Many employers consider the ADA too "mysterious" to understand. This session will "de-mystify" the ADA by providing practical information on ADA rights and responsibilities.
This webinar will covered:
-Reasonable accommodations as they relate to essential job functions
-Employer obligations when someone discloses a disability
-What protections do I have as an employer under ADA

It outlines the ADA's purpose to prevent discrimination and defines disability and qualifications. It summarizes the ADA's titles covering employment, public services, public accommodations, telecommunications, and miscellaneous issues.
The document summarizes the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and its provisions. It discusses the five titles of the ADA which cover employment (Title I), public entities (Title II), public accommodations (Title III), telecommunications (Title IV), and miscellaneous (Title V). It provides details on requirements for public entities, employers, and places of public accommodation to provide accessibility and prohibit discrimination based on disability. Contact information is also included for resources on ADA compliance.
The AODA was passed to improve accessibility for people with disabilities in Ontario. It defines disability broadly and establishes core principles of respecting dignity, independence, integration, and equal opportunity. Organizations must develop policies on accessibility, accommodating assistive devices, service animals, alternative communication, service disruptions, feedback processes, training, and document formats. Larger organizations must document policies and procedures, notify the public about documents, and file annual reports. Non-compliance can result in fines or penalties from directors. The goal is to foster communication between service providers and customers with disabilities.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law in 1990. It aims to remove barriers that prevent people with disabilities from fully participating in society through protections against discrimination across five titles covering employment, public services, public accommodations, telecommunications, and miscellaneous areas. The ADA defines disability as a physical or mental impairment that limits major life activities and requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities.

Common managed care structures like HMOs, PPOs, and POS plans are outlined. The document provides historical context on the development of health insurance in the United States.
Legal PrinciplesNon- Malfeasance- Do n.docxsmile790243
Legal Principles
Non- Malfeasance- Do no harm
The legal principles are rules of human behavior that used to be considered as just, before the law started being written.
The ethical category of Non-Malfeasance represents the doctor’s try to avoid any act or treatment plan that would hurt the patient or violate the patient’s trust, and has been popularized in the phrase “first, do no harm.” Non-Malfeasance is supported through discretion and avoidance. It is critically important that the specialist provider of highly persistent treatments uphold Non-Malfeasance.
(Rodak, 2012)
Beneficence- Promote the welfare of others
Beneficent actions and motives have usually occupied a middle place in morality. Ordinary examples today are found in social welfare programs, policies to improve the welfare of animals etc.
Distributive Justice- All involved should have equal entitlements
The economic structure that each society has its laws, institutions, policies, etc. results in different distributions of economic benefits and burdens across members of the society. These economic frameworks are the result of human political processes and they continually change both across societies and within societies over time.
Autonomy- non influenced decisions for both patients and physicians
The term “autonomy” has appeared more and more often in the medical literature. According to this interpretation of autonomy, the goal for an autonomous person is to decide on his or her own, without undue manipulation by others.
One of the first empirical papers in medical decision making on patient autonomy thus linked autonomy to the question of whether patients wanted to make decisions themselves. In the descriptive medical decision making literature, this meaning has become the default.
The patient described in the informative model from the well known paper of Emanuel and Emanuel corresponds with an autonomous patient in this sense.
Healthcare Rights
Non- Discrimination- race, religion, sexual orientation
In human social affairs, discrimination is treatment or consideration of, or making a difference in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing is apparent to belong to rather than on individual merit. This includes treatment of an individual or group, based on their real or perceived membership in a certain group or social group.
