Restoration Services are provided under the Independent Living (IL) Rehabilitation Program to help individuals address the limitations and impairments caused by their disability. Medical restoration services include:
· Durable medical equipment, such as canes, crutches, walkers, wheelchairs, hospital beds and special toilet seats.
· Hospital services.
· Orthoses (braces), glasses and hearing aids.
These services prepare the client to complete an individualized plan for independent living and transition back into the community. Clients plan for these services in partnership with an independent living counselor. Services are coordinated with other providers and comparable benefits, such as Medicaid, Medicare and private insurance. These services benefit individuals with significant disabilities who are working toward independent living goals.
