As a locally operated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we are committed to the individuals, families, and communities we serve. We work directly with each person served, their family, and a team of healthcare professionals to ensure needs are met through a highly individualized service plan. Stakeholders may include the individual, family member(s), guardians, referral facility discharge planners, medical providers, case managers, and adjusters. WSC’s residential services include two distinct program types: • The Howell Residential Home and Supported Apartments serve individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and emphasize cognitive, behavioral, and physical rehabilitation in a community-integrated setting. • The Genoa Township Group Home provides a supportive environment for individuals with physical disabilities, developmental disabilities, and/or mental illness, focusing on daily living assistance, wellness, and stability. Each person’s service plan is developed collaboratively and is reviewed at least annually or whenever a significant change in health or functional status occurs. The plan outlines supports in areas such as personal care, medication management, mobility, transportation, socialization, and community involvement. Our direct support professionals assist with activities of daily living (eating, toileting, bathing, grooming, dressing, transferring), reminders for appointments, support for social-emotional needs, and other individualized goals. For individuals with TBI residing in the Howell group home or apartments, WSC incorporates the Mayo-Portland Adaptability Inventory (MPAI) to monitor functional progress and support goal development. The MPAI is administered at regular intervals to track changes in adaptability, cognitive and physical functioning, and social integration, and is used to inform service planning and discharge readiness.

WSC staff backgrounds include master and bachelors’ educational degrees; experience in the areas of vocational rehabilitation, vocational rehabilitation counseling, teaching, social work, human resources, HR development of youth and adult services, geriatric services, certified brain injury specialist, business administration, staffing recruitment, psychology, service industry, and management. In addition, staff participates in annual job specific training in Recipient Rights, Blood Borne Pathogens, Person Centered Planning, Grievance & Appeals, Deficit Reduction, Limited English Proficiency, CPR/First Aid, and Medication Administration Review, which includes distribution and storage of medication only allowable following the written orders of a licensed physician for the purpose of maintaining health and treatment.
