Part 5 of Individual Service Plans
 

Currently in the Individual Service Plan, there are separate part 5 sections for each service a person receives.  This is cumbersome for the person using services and time consuming for the provider of multiple services.  As people begin to live more included and more self-directed lives with supports following them as needed, they will likely weave together a combination of support services in order to live the life that they choose.  The need for multiple plans takes away from the purpose of person centeredness. 

The Arc of Virginia recommends one Plan for one person, including one Part 5 for that plan.
