Maryland Developmental Disability Support Broker: Nurse Consultation Announced

Maryland-based Community Health and Education Services (240-755-5591), also known as CHES, announces a two-tier support broker service for people who choose to self-direct under the DDA.

The firm’s nursing support services now include nursing consultation with a DDA approved registered nurse, designed to assist with self-administration assessments and development of health care routines. The second level, known as nursing case management and delegation, involves the training and delegation of staff to undertake tasks, and is required if they will be administering medications or other treatments.

As part of the update, all nurses under the CHES support broker services have completed and been certified under the DDA’s two-day RN case manager/delegating nurse training. The services are available across Montgomery County and Prince George’s County, and individuals can contact the agency for details on coverage in their own community.

“We offer Community First Choice, Personal Support Services, and Nursing Support Services,” a company representative explained. “Our specialized RNs and LPNs work with healthcare providers to establish and follow an individualized treatment plan for each client.”

The self-direction service delivery model was established to give those with developmental disabilities greater control over their life, including who provides support and how Medicaid funds are spent. The option of working with a support broker was introduced to provide additional information, coaching, and advice.

Specializing in working with people with special needs, the latest support broker services from CHES form a key component of its capabilities. The agency also offers an in-depth guide on its website, helping individuals determine which nursing support service is most appropriate for their own situation.
