Referrals for Options Counseling Services 650-50-75
(Revised 10/17/2018 ML #3540)
Aging and Disability Resource-LINK staff will make referrals for options counseling services whenever appropriate. Situations where a referral for options counseling might be appropriate are, but not limited to:
- When information on long-term supports and services is requested
- When an individual has unmet care needs
- When the consumer needs assistance with futures planning or benefits counseling
- When a long-distance caregiver has concerns about the increased frailty or care needs of a family member
- When it becomes evident the consumer would be best served by more individual staff time and attention
It is the policy of the Aging and Disability Resource-LINK to make all possible referrals to options counseling staff to assist consumers in their local community.
Aging and Disability Resource-LINK staff maintains a list of the options counseling staff for each region to access options counseling services.
