Service & Support Administrators

Service and Support Administrators (S.S.A.), formerly known as case managers, remain a resource to help individuals decide their wants and needs and to help build supports to improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities and to monitor for health and safety. The S.S.A. is as an advocate for an individual with mental retardation but also may work with family members in helping to establish guardianship or other important issues.

Waiver Services

There are currently two types of waiver services available to individuals that qualify for enrollment with the Carroll County Board of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities, the Individual Options Waiver and the Level 1 Waiver. In addition, there are also Supported Living services. The purpose of waiver services is to assist individuals in maintaining a quality of life when they otherwise lack the financial means and/or the natural supports.

 
Residential Services

Waiver programs have been developed by the state government to help adults with their living needs. Carroll Co. MR/DD is responsible for administering the waiver program and for matching some of the money. Of the 63 people with Individual Options waivers in our county, 52 live at St. John's Villa while the other 14 live in their own homes where they receive support services. 10 of the ICFMR (Intermediate Care for Mentally Retarded) beds in our county are at the Carrollton Group Home while 25 are located at Country View Manor, formerly East Carroll Nursing Home. In Carroll County, currently there are about 12 people residing in various nursing homes, including Golden Age Retreat. We have had 5 individuals with mental retardation recently enrolled in the Level 1 waiver program.
