Open Doors

  • Description:

    The Open Door Transition Center helps people in nursing homes and Intermediate Care Facilities who want to return to the community. Transition Specialists provide residents with information about home and community based services needed to return to the community. Working with the discharge planner, they assist in finding services in the community, including locating housing and provide community preparedness education to make sure that individuals have the information/skills they will need when they return to the community. Open Doors also offers peer support through the Peer Outreach and Referral program.

    The program works closely with the Nursing Home Transition and Diversion (NHTD) and the Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Medicaid Waivers and Medicaid Managed Long Term Care Plans to provide services that will support people in the community.
