Information
Specialists
& Direct Care Team
Achieve employs specialists who can provide insight and knowledge specific to their expertise. There is no need to bill health insurance or Medical Assistance for these services.
Behavior Specialist
When a person does not have the skills to communicate how they feel or do not understand what is appropriate in a particular setting, unwanted behaviors may occur. Our behavior specialist evaluates individual behaviors and situations to determine the most positive and consistent approach to addressing unwanted behavioral issues.
Registered Nurse
Achieve contracts with a registered nurse who advises staff on participant illnesses or health concerns. Staff are formally trained in medication administration with on-going monitoring by the nurse.
Transportation
Transportation to and from the program and community job sites is a part of Achieve’s basic program service.
Private Transportation
Achieve operates multiple buses with wheelchair lifts, vans, and cars to help participants travel to and from work each day. Drivers are employed by Achieve and receive the same training as program staff.
