Apartment Living
LDI students live alone in one bedroom apartments or in two-bedroom apartments
with a roommate paired by age, lifestyle and temperament. Students are
assisted through one-on-one mentoring and modeling in areas of health
care, medication management, personal hygiene, time management and organizational
skills.
Students are provided opportunities and are scheduled to participate in
classes and activities which involve the following adult life domains:
1) Household Management; 2) Social interaction and friendship; 3) Recreation/leisure;
and, 4) Community. Weekly cooking classes offer instruction and supervision
for menu planning, transportation for grocery shopping, meal preparation
with use of recipes and post-meal clean up in addition to kitchen safety
basics, use of appliances and table etiquette.
Apartment inspections occur weekly; mentoring assistance is established
for those requiring additional residential skill development, task and
technique demonstration, organization and support. Weekend activities
and some weeknight events are scheduled and staffed.
