What happens when a client, parent, or legal guardian requests a different provider?

(1) A client, parent, or legal guardian requesting a change in provider must notify the DDA social service specialist and provider.
(2) DDA will work with the parent or legal guardian to determine whether the parent or legal guardian's concerns can be addressed with the current provider.
(3) If the parties do not come to a resolution:
(a) The client may return to the family home until a qualified residential service provider is identified; or
(b) The client may remain with the current provider until another qualified provider is selected by the parent or legal guardian.
