The Medina County Board of DD is committed to developing new ways to help those who help people with developmental disabilities in Medina County. We know now more than ever for people with developmental disabilities to be successful, it requires investing in our system.
The MCBDD knows providers are working tirelessly to ensure basic health, safety, and service needs are being met. We want to help your efforts by offering you support. The following programs are currently offered for providers:
Current Program Offerings:
1. DSP Employee Referral Program
The MCBDD offers and funds an Employee Referral Program to help local service provider agencies increase their DSP recruitment efforts.
2. DSP Training Support Program
The MCBDD is offering a reimbursement program to help local agency service providers address costs associated with new DSP hire training.
3. Provider Success Coach Program
The Provider Success Coach Program is designed to support provider agencies from within their organization. The Provider Success Coach will help Direct Support Professionals and other direct care workers with assistance for issues outside of work that may be impacting their ability to work.
4. Provider Background Checks
All providers are required to submit a background check before offering services, and we want to make sure this process is as simple as possible. The Medina County Board of Developmental Disabilities is happy to offer background checks free of charge to independent and agency providers.
