Understanding the Difference: IHS Without Training vs. With Training
Individualized Home Supports (IHS) without training primarily focuses on providing essential, non-medical assistance for daily living. This includes aid with personal care, meal preparation, and housekeeping, catering to those who need support in maintaining a comfortable and safe home environment.
In contrast, IHS with training encompasses these supports while also integrating skill development and educational components. This additional training is designed to enhance independence, teaching clients new skills for managing their daily lives. While both services aim to support individuals in their homes, the key difference lies in the element of skill and educational training, with one focusing on immediate assistance and the other on long-term skill development.
