Rights and Rights Restrictions - Virtual Classroom

Throughout history, we have seen people experiencing lack of choice, freedom, and the ability to assert their own rights. In Minnesota, we believe strongly in the power of rights for people supported. This course is dedicated to reviewing and understanding the rights that people have through 245D licensed services. It is a privilege as a provider to help people understand and assert their rights.

We will explore:

• 245D service-related and protection-related rights including those rights specific to residential sites
• Provider responsibilities related to orienting the person and their legal representative (if any) to their rights
• How to ensure the person understands and is able to exercise their rights
• Staff training requirements on the rights of persons supported
• 245D documentation requirements for a rights restriction
• Alternative options to rights restrictions

Through strong understanding of 245D rights and their implementation, people supported can have greater power and authority of their own lives than ever before. You can be a strong advocate for every person you support, and this course will move you in that direction.
