Day Habilitation at Charles River Center provides a structured, goal-oriented program for adults with complex communication, medical and therapeutic needs. Our day habilitation programs are housed in our spacious, updated main building in Needham, MA. Our Center is fully accessible with wide corridors leading to spacious, bright group rooms, a fully accessible kitchen and large activity rooms.
At CRC, we consider our staff to be lifelong coaches. With the individual’s interests in mind, activity choices may include music, arts & crafts, cooking, computer and iPad time, games, gardening and exercise activities. Community outings to the library and local parks are built into each weekly schedule to work on therapeutic goals while having fun around Needham. Day hab participants may also choose to do group volunteering for Meals on Wheels and local food pantries.
Our caring staff are committed to enabling adults with complex disabilities to have choices and continually learn new things that improve their well-being and self-management. Assistive technologies including visual supports, iPads, AAC devices and whiteboards and other adapted daily living aids are used throughout the day to facilitate choicemaking, independence and improve functional skills.
Adults who attend our Day Habilitation program are assessed annually by our team of nurses, physical, behavioral, occupational, and speech therapists. Based on a team approach with individual input and choices, an annual Individual Support Plan (ISP) is developed for each participant. This plan outlines individualized goals to improve daily living skills as well as health and well-being. Therapists support the staff on physical and communication techniques throughout the day.
Accreditations: Charles River Center Day Habilitation program receives the highest certification level by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).
