Divine House Inc has been serving the Willmar area with waivered services since 1985, and it runs small community-based homes like its featured home in Wheaton, which is handicapped accessible and currently has four openings. The community provides a range of studio room layouts and focuses on meeting individual needs through assisted living, skilled nursing, home care, and memory care services, along with in-home care for those who need it. Divine House Inc believes people with disabilities have strengths and abilities that can grow, so the team works to support this with programs tailored around each person's needs, including services like CTSS for children and ARMHS for adults. The facility provides care for physical, mental, and social needs, aiming to help residents build skills to contribute in their communities, and offers instruction in independent living.
Mental health support is available for children through adults, with individual and family therapy-including play therapy and sand tray therapy-plus crisis placement services, employment support, and referrals for those who need them. Staff include Program Directors who meet state standards for oversight, Registered Nurses who monitor health and medications with a 24/7 on-call system, Program Coordinators who manage each home and train staff, Human Service Technicians who help with daily activities and track progress, Compliance Monitors who check state compliance, and Quality Assurance staff watching over care and investigating any incidents. The community makes social, spiritual, recreational, and family participation part of everyday living, addressing all parts of life with flexibility and empathy. Divine House Inc aims to provide an environment that respects dignity, rights, and the specific needs of each client, offering short-term crisis care and intervention for those who need extra help for a time, and focusing on both medical and behavioral care for a better quality of life.
