DHS-DISABILITIES-OLMSTEAD CASE

Creates the Olmstead Readiness Act. Requires the Department of Human Services (DHS) to conduct an assessment of individuals with disabilities to determine whether they have an interest in moving and are appropriate to move out of their current setting to the most integrated setting. Defines "most integrated setting" as a setting that enables a person with a disability to interact with non-disabled persons to the fullest extent possible and that is appropriate to meet the needs of the person with a disability. Requires DHS to maintain a viable network of home and community based providers to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities in the most integrated setting. Provides that discharge plans to most integrated settings must include provisions for an individual's return to a more intensive level of support or service when the individual's health or personal safety requires it or when the individual's treatment plan suggests a need for crisis or emergency intervention or long-term supports and services. Requires DHS to make a report by December 1, 2007. Provides that before full implementation of the Act, DHS must review all applicable rules and regulations governing staffing requirements for maintaining levels of quality supports and services by January 31, 2008 and make a report by April 15, 2008.
