These waivers provide a person-centered plan of care for an array of non-medical, home and community-based services to individuals with an acquired brain injury who currently receive or would otherwise require services in an institutional setting. Both waivers are functionally similar, however ABI Waiver II includes new services, has a lower cost cap and does not have Transitional Living Services. Note: ABI Waiver I is currently closed to new participants. Eligibility Criteria To be eligible for the ABI Waiver II, individuals must be: • Eligible for Medicaid • Between ages 18 and 64 with an acquired brain injury • Meet the DSS “Level of Care Requirement” which means that without the waiver services the individual would otherwise receive services in an institutional setting • Able to participate in the development of a service plan in partnership with a DSS social worker or have a conservator to do so. An ABI is an injury to the brain that has occurred after birth which results in improper brain function. The condition cannot be congenital, developmental, or degenerative to be considered for the ABI Waiver II. Med-Connect applicants may also meet the financial eligibility rules for the program through the Medicaid for Employed Disabled coverage group. Under the program, working individuals can have income up to $75,000 per year, $10,000 in assets and receive Medicaid subject to payment of a monthly premium. Individuals who cannot afford the cost of care, but are over Medicaid’s limits may still qualify. The state has a spend down program that evaluates an individual’s care costs and their income. If it is calculated that an individual cannot meet their care costs, they can qualify for Medicaid by spending-down their income over the limit on their medically-necessary care costs. Types of Services & Supports that can be used for Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Waiver Services may include assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) such as eating, bathing, dressing, transferring and toileting. Other supports include, but are not limited to: • Case management (care plan development and monitoring) • Transportation • Vocational support • Independent Living Skills training • Personal Care Assistance (PCA) Services • Homemaker-Companion Services • Respite Services • Home Delivered Meals • Assistive Technology • Home Modifications • Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS) Connecticut Waiver Factsheet CT ABI Waiver II (1085.R01.00) Provides ABI group day, adult day health, homemaker, personal care, prevocational services, respite, supported employment, ABI recovery assistant II, ABI recovery assistant, assistive technology, chore, cognitive behavioral programs, community living support services, companion, consultation services, environmental accessibility modifications, home delivered meals, independent living skills training, personal emergency response systems, substance abuse programs, transportation, and vehicle modification services to individuals with brain injury ages 18 or older who meet a hospital, nursing facility, or ICF/IID level of care.

  • ABI RESOURCES | RELATIONSHIP CHALLENGES | CT BRAIN INJURY

    RELATIONSHIPS CHALLENGES. It is important to care for oneself because neglecting one's own well-being can lead to negative consequences, such as physical and emotional exhaustion, burnout, and a negative impact on relationships and overall quality of life. Self-care includes activities that promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being, such as exercise, eating well, getting enough sleep, managing stress, and having a social support system. When individuals take care of themselves, they are better able to handle the demands and pressures of life, and they are more able to support and care for others. Additionally, self-care can help to prevent or alleviate the development of mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. Therefore, individuals need to make self-care a priority in order to maintain overall well-being. Brain injury can significantly impact relationships, causing couples physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges. Memory loss, difficulty with communication, physical changes, and emotional changes can all strain the relationship and make it difficult for the couple to connect. Caregiving responsibilities can also be overwhelming, leading to feelings of burnout or resentment. Counseling can provide support and guidance for both the injured person and their loved one to navigate these challenges and find ways to maintain their relationship and intimacy. It can also help the loved one understand the changes in their loved one, navigate practical aspects of caregiving and take care of their well-being. Overall, counseling is an important step in helping couples cope with the aftermath of a brain injury. A counselor can help a couple navigate the challenges that arise after a brain injury by providing support, guidance, and practical strategies for coping. They can help the injured person and their loved one understand the changes that have occurred due to the brain injury, and provide them with tools for communicating and interacting with one another. Additionally, a counselor can provide guidance on navigating the practical aspects of caregiving, such as managing finances, coordinating medical appointments, and dealing with legal and insurance issues. They can also provide support and coping strategies for the loved one, who may face significant emotional and physical challenges due to their role as a caregiver. Furthermore, they can help the couple adapt to the new circumstances and find ways to maintain the relationship and intimacy despite the challenges caused by the brain injury. Brain injury can cause a wide range of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms that can create problems for couples. Memory loss, difficulty with communication, physical changes, and emotional changes can all strain the relationship and make it difficult for the couple to connect. Caregiving responsibilities can be overwhelming and lead to feelings of burnout or resentment. Counseling can provide support and guidance for both the injured person and their loved one to navigate these challenges and find ways to maintain their relationship and intimacy. Counseling can help the loved one understand the changes in their loved one and how to communicate best and interact with them. It can also provide guidance on how to navigate the practical aspects of caregiving and help the loved one take care of their well-being. Overall, counseling is essential in helping couples cope with the aftermath of a brain injury.

  • ABI RESOURCES | SLEEP AND TBI RECOVERY | CT MFP ABI WAIVER

    BARCI DA TBI Sleep is important for brain injury recovery because it allows the brain to rest and heal. During sleep, the brain is able to repair and regenerate cells, and it also consolidates memories and processes new information. Lack of sleep can have a negative impact on brain function and can hinder recovery from a brain injury. Sleep deprivation can impair cognitive function, such as memory, attention, and problem-solving abilities, and it can also affect mood and emotional regulation. Additionally, sleep is important for the body's overall health and well-being. It helps to regulate the immune system, maintain physical health, and support proper growth and development. Therefore, it is important for individuals with a brain injury to prioritize getting enough sleep in order to support their recovery process. This may involve establishing a consistent sleep routine, creating a comfortable sleep environment, and seeking medical treatment for any sleep-related issues. Are you having trouble falling asleep at night? Or difficulty staying asleep through the night? It can be challenging to know when to seek help or when you may have a sleep disorder that requires treatment. Read through the sleep assessment questions below to determine if visiting a sleep specialist is your best option. Do you have morning headaches? Are you unable to go to sleep and stay asleep at night? Have you been told you constantly snore or occasionally stop breathing when you sleep? Do you have trouble concentrating or fall asleep when you should generally be awake and alert? Do you experience a "creepy or crawling" sensation in your legs or arms while awake or at rest? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, talk with your primary care provider to receive an initial sleep assessment.
