DSP Checklist
 

The DSP Checklist is another hurdle to find Caregivers.  We have enough trouble trying to find attendants as it is.  If DSPs are required to do a checklist, then nobody is going to go into the Caregiving field due to DMAS and DPHDS not paying enough and making more regulations, therefore people with disabilities will be forced back into institutions which is a violation of our ADA rights to live in the least restrictive environment possible.
