What is shared living, and how do I apply?

Residential services provided in a single-family home setting in Nebraska are called shared living services. The shared living services are delivered under a subcontract with Divine Living and are continuous services. The shared living services are formalized training and supports for the acquisition, retention, or improvement in skills related to living in the community. Formalized training and supports are not simply care and support; they are specialized, formalized training and supports. These include adaptive skill development of daily living activities, such as personal grooming and cleanliness, bed making and household chores, eating and the preparation of food, community inclusion, transportation, and the social and leisure skill development necessary to enable the individual to live in the most integrated setting appropriate to his/her needs. Shared living Services also include personal care and protective oversight as applicable to the individual as well as supervision. Health maintenance activities, such as medication administration and treatments that are routine, stable, and predictable may be provided by medication aides and other unlicensed direct support professionals and require nurse or medical practitioner oversight of delegated activities to the extent permitted under applicable state laws. Health maintenance activities, supervision, and assistance with personal needs are provided when identified as a need and documented in the team meetings. The shared living service is services provided in a setting where the individual and the shared living provider resides, and the shared living provider is on-site and immediately available at all times to the individual receiving services, including during the individual’s sleep time. The shared living provider must be present and awake during the times the individual is present and awake. Apply under our careers page on website.
