Provo Care Center is a 35-bed Intermediate Care Facility located in Provo, Utah, serving individuals with intellectual disabilities and related conditions. As a Medicaid-certified care home, it operates within the program established to provide specialized support for people who benefit from assistance with daily living activities, but who do not require the intensive medical care provided in higher-level nursing facilities. Residents at Provo Care Center have access to services specifically designed to promote independence, personal growth, and participation in the community.
The care philosophy at Provo Care Center emphasizes helping individuals live as independently as possible. Since the wider program’s implementation in 1988, there has been a consistent focus on supporting residents to control their own lives and become active, valued members of their home communities. This approach extends beyond just meeting basic physical and medical needs, aiming also to nurture social involvement, personal choice, and autonomy.
Within its supportive environment, Provo Care Center provides a range of resources tailored to the unique needs of each resident. This includes structured activities, individualized programs, and assistance as needed to enhance quality of life. The intent is to offer not only safety and stability, but also opportunities for residents to develop skills, form relationships, and pursue personal interests. The commitment to fostering a sense of belonging and self-determination is present in every aspect of the daily routine and care planning at the facility. Provo Care Center plays a vital role in enabling individuals with intellectual disabilities to experience the dignity and fulfillment of living as fully as possible within their community.
