Step 1: Initial Referral and Assessment
Users seeking support from Support Solutions of the Mid-South (SSMS) should initiate the process by obtaining a referral from a relevant institution such as a psychiatric hospital. This referral will trigger the assessment process. Upon receiving the referral, our clinical team will assess it based on specific criteria including insurance coverage, co-occurring mental health diagnosis, income, and the individual's ability to ambulate. This assessment aims to determine the suitability of services for the individual. If the assessment aligns with the criteria and the person agrees to the proposed services, the admission process will proceed.

Step 1: Admissions Process
Once the individual agrees to the proposed services, Support Solutions of the Mid-South (SSMS) will begin the admissions process. The admissions process involves ensuring compliance with licensing requirements as per state and federal regulations. This includes verifying specific criteria such as the individual's diagnosis of intellectual or developmental disability, qualification for ICF/IDD level of care, completion of a Level of Care, and approval for Waiver or State Funding. Users will be required to submit various documents including medical records, psychological evaluations, insurance cards, Social Security Card, Resident Assessment assistance, immunization documentation, and current MAR if applicable.

Step 2: Evaluation and Service Provision
Following the submission of necessary documents and completion of the admissions process, Support Solutions' Admissions, Discharge, and Transfers Committee will evaluate the referral further. This evaluation includes assessing the adequacy and suitability of personnel and resources, considering the supported person's needs and whether they can be met at home, through residential support, or community/day support. Users will be informed about the availability of services provided and the geographic area served. Additionally, SSMS will coordinate with other agencies if they cannot respond to a request or continuance of service, and will provide advance notification of service changes, with exceptions for specific situations. Throughout this process, users can expect clear communication and guidance from Support Solutions of the Mid-South (SSMS) to ensure a smooth transition and appropriate support provision.
