Zumbro House is a therapeutic community offering a comprehensive spectrum of residential programs designed to serve individuals with mental disabilities and/or mental illness. Focused on supporting people in living successfully and safely within the broader community, Zumbro House provides a range of services that are tailored to meet each resident’s unique needs. Their residential offerings span from highly supported and supervised care, such as Corporate Foster Care, to various apartment-based programs. These apartment programs offer different levels of supervision and support, ranging from round-the-clock care to partial day assistance, ensuring flexibility and the right fit for each individual.
At the core of Zumbro House’s approach is the belief in individualized care. Upon admission, every client undergoes a comprehensive assessment to identify specific behavioral needs and functional deficits. This thorough process allows staff to design personalized intervention and support programs that address target behaviors and work towards meaningful progress. The behavioral supports provided are seamless and specifically crafted for each resident, contributing to the overall success of each treatment plan.
A structured environment at Zumbro House fosters safety and therapeutic progress. Vigilant supervision ensures the wellbeing of clients and others, while the environment itself is maintained to be both supportive and secure. The therapeutic setting rewards and encourages adaptive behaviors, reinforcing positive changes and helping residents to succeed in community living. The overarching philosophy at Zumbro House is person-centered planning: instead of adjusting the individual to fit a predetermined environment, the focus is on adapting the environment to suit the individual’s strengths, needs, and preferences.
This commitment to person-centered care promotes inclusion, integration, and self-determination, values that are fundamental to Zumbro House’s mission. By empowering individuals to maintain their status within the community, the program fosters a sense of belonging and autonomy. The aim is to create a seamless transition for individuals as they navigate their recovery and growth, all while surrounded by compassionate support and a structured, therapeutic environment designed for their long-term success.
