Program areas at FHHS
Residential Services provides opportunities for small group living in 29 community residences as well as independent living in local apartments. The goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where each individual is encouraged to be as independent as possible. Direct service professionals provide as little or as much support as needed. Attention to medical care is paramount. Our clinical and medical employees get to know each individual, monitor all medical treatments and make sure that daily care is tailored to each individual's clinical and medical needs. Services are also provided to individuals with acquired brain injuries (abi) and the turning 22 (t22) population.
