Maryland DDA Self-Direct Nursing Case Management & Consultant Service Announced
The firm's nursing consultation and nursing case management services are now offered to self-direction clients in Prince George's County and Montgomery County. All staff have been certified under the DDA's training program, and have extensive experience with a range of development disabilities, including cerebral palsy, spina bifida, and autism.

CHES explains that the self-direct model was introduced to give individuals greater control over important decisions in their lives, such as who provides support services and how funds are allocated. With the recent announcement, the firm offers two levels of nursing assistance as part of the DDA's support broker provisions.
"If you have an HRST level of 3 or more, you will need to recruit, interview, and hire a nurse to provide either nursing consultation or nursing case management and delegation," a company representative explained. "Which one you require depends on several factors, and we now provide a breakdown on our website. Alternatively, we're always available to discuss with you in-person."
CHES details the circumstances under which nursing consultation services are more appropriate, including those who manage their own healthcare and medications, those who direct paid staff but still take responsibility, or those who rely on unpaid caregivers to provide support.
In the event that paid staff will be administering medications and treatments, including paid family members, CHES states that nursing case management and delegation will be required.
