A habilitation center for individuals with a dual diagnosis of mental retardation and mental illness.
The ICF/MR provides services to individuals with a dual diagnosis of mental retardation and mental illness. These services prepare these individuals to the least restrictive environment analogous to the norms and patterns of the mainstream of society. The individuals served are more than 22 years of age and have behavioral problems associated with mental retardation and/or mental illness. In addition, they have multiple medical problems which are related or unrelated to their physical or mental disabilities. These individuals have multiple changing needs which are addressed by an interdisciplinary team. The team develops a unified Individual Program Plan which is the framework for a comprehensive care for these individuals. This is to enable them to live a normal life as possible and to achieve gainful occupational pursuits like any other citizen in the State of South Carolina.
