Integrating Supports Colorado is actively seeking energetic and professional Host Home providers in the Denver Metro, Colorado Springs, and Pueblo areas to offer a home to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Host Home Provider services support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in a family type environment. Individuals are included in every aspect of daily life from shopping, holidays, and family vacations. This is a family home and family can look many different ways. This could be a single man or woman, a married couple, a family with or without children and or pets. They could live in an apartment the middle of a city or on a farm in the country.
As always, all Integrating Supports Colorado services are person centered. Living in a family setting ensures continuity of care and consistency compared to a service that has rotating staff working in shifts.
Staffing in a Host Home can look many different ways and can be up to 24 hours per day, or as little as 8 hours per day. A person supported in HHP can be as independent as they want to be and can be. They can be assisted to learn all aspects of daily life while being included in typical family routines.
