Residential Habilitation (Res-Hab):
Residential Habilitation is most commonly known as life in a "Group Home". Group Homes offer
residential services to a smaller group of residents in the friendly, family style setting of a
home. Each Group Home has a manager assigned to ensure regulatory compliance and a Professional
Residential Manager.Residents are encouraged to personalize their bedrooms and living room to suit their individual taste. Each resident is required to pull his/her fair share of tasks in the maintenance and upkeep of their home. This includes food preparation, meal planning, and cooking. It also includes activities such as household cleaning, laundry, and lawn maintenance. Group home residents plan for their own recreational events such as going to the movies, power walking, dining out, dancing, going shopping, and visiting friends.
