Wellness Counseling Service -
an individually designed service intended to assist the medically stable
waiver participant in maintaining optimal health status. It is intended to be
available to waiver participants who do not otherwise have access to nursing
services. Through Wellness Counseling, a Registered Professional Nurse assists
the waiver participant to identify his/her health care needs and provides
guidance to the waiver participant to minimize, or in some cases prevent,
exacerbations of disease. This service differs from Medicaid State Plan Nursing
Service as it provides wellness counseling as a discrete service to medically
stable individuals. |
