RATHER, OUR COMMUNITY IS BASED UPON THE POPULATION THAT WE SERVE OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY AND SOMETIMES REACHING OUT INTO OTHER STATES. IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY, COLLABORATING WITH OTHER AGENCIES, TO ASSESS THE NEEDS OF THESE CONSTITUENTS AND TO HELP MEET THE NEEDS OF AS MUCH OF THIS POPULATION AS POSSIBLE. WE UNDERSTAND THAT WE CANNOT TREAT EVERYONE, BUT WE CAN PROVIDE INFORMATION, RESOURCES, REFERRALS AND TRAINING IN AN EFFORT TO HELP THOSE WHO HAVE NOWHERE ELSE TO TURN.IN AN EFFORT TO DETERMINE THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THIS COMMUNITY, WE DESIGNED AND DISTRIBUTED A SURVEY TO 26 AGENCIES, GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS AND LEGISLATORS, REQUESTING THEIR FEEDBACK. RESPONSES WERE RECEIVED FROM 42% (11) OF THE RECIPIENTS (SEE BELOW). WHEN ASKED, "DO YOU FEEL THAT THERE ARE PRESSING HEALTH CONCERNS OR SERVICE NEEDS FOR PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES THAT ARE NOT ADEQUATELY MET BY EXISTING COMMUNITY RESOURCES?", 100% OF THE RESPONDENTS SAID "YES". FOLLOWING ARE SOME OF THOSE UNMET NEEDS.UNMET NEEDS - MEDICAL AND DENTAL SERVICES, INCLUDING GYNECOLOGIC SERVICES, FACE-TO-FACE CARE MANAGEMENT SERVICES AND SPECIALIZED TRAINING FOR NURSE PRACTITIONERS WHO COULD PROVIDE MUCH-NEEDED PRIMARY CARE HEALTH SERVICES. - LIVING QUARTERS FOR ADULTS, WHO "SHOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHOOSE WHERE THEY WANT TO LIVE, EITHER IN A DEVELOPMENTAL CENTER OR A COMMUNITY." - AVAILABILITY OF ADAPTIVE EQUIPMENT AND MEDICAL DEVICES. THIS IS SEEN AS PARTICULARLY CRITICAL FOR CHILDREN, WHO MAY OUTGROW SOME DEVICES THAT PARENTS CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE. - ACCESS TO FACILITIES. - DAY PROGRAMMING. - TRANSPORTATION. - RECREATION. - SERVICE COORDINATION AND FOLLOW-UP POST ACUTE CARE.WHICH UNMET NEEDS SHOULD MATHENY ATTEMPT TO ADDRESS? - EXPANSION OF GROUP HOMES IF SUFFICIENT FUNDING CAN BE OBTAINED. - INITIATION OR EXPANSION OF TRAINING OF NURSE PRACTITIONERS. - EXPANSION OF DENTAL SERVICES AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES. - SATELLITE OUTPATIENT CLINIC FOR PEOPLE WHO FIND IT DIFFICULT TO TRAVEL TO THE MAIN LOCATION. - EXPANDED DAY PROGRAMMING AND RECREATION OPTIONS. - SERVICE COORDINATION.NEEDED SERVICES IN ORDER OF SEVERITY OF UNMET NEED. - PRIMARY HEALTH CARE FOR PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. - SERVICES TARGETING LOW-INCOME AND MINORITY INDIVIDUALS. - EMPLOYMENT OR OCCUPATIONAL TRAINING FOR ADULTS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. - RESIDENTIAL SERVICES FOR ADULTS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. - RESIDENTIAL SERVICES FOR CHILDREN WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. - PHYSICAL, OCCUPATIONAL OR OTHER THERAPIES FOR PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. - ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY SERVICES. - RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITY FOR PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. - EARLY INTERVENTION OR OTHER IN-HOME THERAPEUTIC SERVICES FOR CHILDREN WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES.OTHER FACILITIES OR ORGANIZATIONS THAT PROVIDE SERVICES SIMILAR TO ONE OR MORE OF THOSE OFFERED BY MATHENY. - BANCROFT - ARC OF NEW JERSEY - SPECTRUM FOR LIVING - PASSAIC COUNTY ELKS CEREBRAL PALSY CENTER - LADACIN NETWORK - MORRISTOWN MEDICAL CENTER DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES CENTER - CHILDRENS SPECIALIZED SERVICES - ARC OF MONMOUTH COUNTY AMBULATORY CARE CENTER - ARC OF MERCER HEALTHCARE CENTER - ADVANCING OPPORTUNITIES - EASTERN CHRISTIAN CHILDREN'S RETREAT - ALTERNATIVES - CEREBRAL PALSY OF NEW JERSEY - NEW JERSEY INSTITUTE FOR DISABILITIES - PG CHAMBERS SCHOOL - UNITED CEREBRAL PALSY OF NEW JERSEY - JARDINE ACADEMY - ALLIES - CEREBRAL PALSY OF MIDDLESEX COUNTY - OCEAN HOUSING ALLIANCE - DEVEREAUXTHINKING ABOUT THE RANGE OF SERVICE PROVIDERS IN NEW JERSEY, ARE THERE NEEDS THAT YOU THINK COULD BE ADDRESSED PARTICULARLY WELL BY COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN MATHENY AND SOME OF THOSE OTHER PROVIDERS? - MEDICAL SERVICES ADVOCACY - MEDICAL COORDINATION - "OTHER AGENCIES COULD BENEFIT FROM MATHENYS MODEL OF CARE." - "MATHENY NEEDS TO BECOME MORE VISIBLE IN THE GENERAL MEDICAL COMMUNITY AS A UNIQUE RESOURCE. MATHENY COULD PROVIDE GRAND ROUNDS AND INTRODUCE PHYSICIANS AND NURSES TO BEST PRACTICES IN COMMUNICATING WITH PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES."DO YOU FEEL THAT HUMAN SERVICE AND HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONS KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT THE SERVICE NEEDS OF PEOPLE WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES IN NEW JERSEY IN ORDER TO EFFECTIVELY PLAN AND IMPLEMENT SERVICES?36% YES; 64% NOWHAT IS LACKING ON THE PART OF HUMAN SERVICES AND HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONS WITH REGARD TO THE SERVICE NEEDS OF PEOPLE WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES? - "THERE IS A GENERAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THE ISSUES FACED BY THOSE WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES AND THAT THESE ARE LIFELONG STRUGGLES. THERE NEEDS TO BE GREATER AWARENESS OF WHAT FAMILIES DEAL WITH ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS." - "THERE IS AN ASSUMPTION THAT ALL PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES HAVE SIMILAR NEEDS, AND THERE IS LITTLE UNDERSTANDING OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF DISABILITIES AND HOW THERE MAY BE SPECIAL NEEDS, I.E., A CHILD WITH AUTISM MAY NOT HAVE THE SAME MEDICAL, PHYSICAL, COGNITIVE OR SOCIAL NEEDS AS SOMEONE WITH SPINA BIFIDA." - "ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT THE NEEDS OF PEOPLE WITH INTELLECTUAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES AND CERTAINLY DO NOT KNOW HOW TO TAKE THEIR UNIQUE NEEDS INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN PROVIDING CARE." - "COORDINATED CARE SEEMS TO BE LACKING." - "THE MEDICAL PROFESSION IS GEARED TO ACUTE, RATHER THAN CHRONIC, ILLNESSES. EVEN WITHIN CHRONIC ILLNESSES, THE MOST FREQUENTLY DISCUSSED ARE DIABETES, HYPERTENSION AND OTHER MEDICAL CONDITIONS. CHILDREN AND ADULTS WITH LIFELONG DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES ARE OFTEN WITHOUT MEDICAL CHAMPIONS OR EVEN HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS WHO TAKE AN INTEREST IN THEIR COMPLEX NEEDS." - "THE MOVEMENT OF INDIVIDUALS FROM DEVELOPMENTAL CENTERS (INSTITUTIONS) NEEDS TO BE ACCELERATED, AND ADEQUATE FUNDING NEEDS TO BE GIVEN TO PROVIDERS TO ENSURE AN ONGOING ABILITY TO TREAT THIS VULNERABLE POPULATION."MATHENY RECOGNIZES THAT IT CANNOT PROVIDE CARE FOR THE ENTIRE DISABLED POPULATION. WE DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO ENSURE THAT FUTURE HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS UNDERSTAND HOW TO CARE AND TREAT PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES. AS PART OF THAT EFFORT, WE HAVE ESTABLISHED A PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES TRAINING FOR MEDICAL AND DENTAL STUDENTS FROM UMDNJ, WHO ROTATE THROUGH MATHENY ON A WEEKLY BASIS. MATHENY ALSO HAS INTERNSHIP AND TRAINING PROGRAMS WITH MORE THAN 100 COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES.HELPED BY A GRANT FROM THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATIONS NEW JERSEY HEALTH INITIATIVES PROGRAM, WE HAVE DEVELOPED, TESTED AND IMPLEMENTED A MODEL FOR IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF TRANSITIONAL CARE FOR PERSONS WITH CHRONIC HEALTH ISSUES AND MEDICAL COMPLEXITIES ASSOCIATED WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. OUR PARTNERS IN THIS PROJECT ARE MORRISTOWN MEDICAL CENTER IN MORRISTOWN, NJ; THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL IN NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ; AND NEWTON MEDICAL CENTER IN NEWTON, NJ. IN ADDITION TO IMPROVING THE CARE OF OUR PATIENTS WHEN TRANSFERRED TO ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS AND REDUCING THE NUMBER OF READMISSIONS, THIS PROJECT HAS EDUCATED STAFF MEMBERS AT ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS SO THEY WILL BE MORE COMFORTABLE TREATING PATIENTS WITH DISABILITIES. IT HAS NOT ONLY HELPED MATHENY PATIENTS BUT HAS ALSO BENEFITED PATIENTS WITH DISABILITIES WHO ARE ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITALS FROM FAMILIES AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS. NUMBERS OF READMISSIONS WITHIN 30 DAYS OF DISCHARGE FROM THE ACUTE CARE SETTING, AS WELL AS NUMBERS OF EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS WITHIN 30 DAYS OF DISCHARGE, SERVE AS A PRIMARY OUTCOMES MEASURE OF THE TRANSITIONAL CARE PROGRAM. IN THE FIRST 10 MONTHS OF THE PROGRAM, THE HOSPITAL READMISSION RATE DROPPED TO 7.1% FROM 25.05%.ORGANIZATIONS CONTRIBUTING TO THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESMENT SURVEY: - ALLIANCE FOR THE BETTERMENT OF CITIZENS WITH DISABILITIES, NEW JERSEY - THE ARC OF NEW JERSEY - THE CENTRAL PALSY LEAGUE - CEREBRAL PALSY OF NEW JERSEY - MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH CONSORTIA, NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH - NEW JERSEY ASSOCIATION OF COMMUNITY PROVIDERS - NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES - NEW JERSEY OFFICE OF CHILD HEALTH SERVICES, DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES - PASSAIC COUNTY ELKS CEREBRAL PALSY TREATMENT CENTER - SPINA BIFIDA RESOURCE NETWORK - UNITED CEREBRAL PALSY OF HUDSON COUNTY PART VI, LINE 3: MATHENY'S TYPICAL OUTPATIENT HAS INSURANCE COVERAGE THROUGH NJ MEDICAID. THESE PATIENTS OFTEN HAVE PRIMARY COVERAGE THROUGH MEDICARE. AT TIMES SOME ALSO MAY HAVE A PRIMARY COMMERCIAL INSURANCE; BUT THIS IS NOT TYPICAL.IF IT IS DISCOVERED THAT A PATIENT HAS NO INSURANCE COVERAGE WHATSOEVER, THEY WOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE APPROPRIATE SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCY FOR SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE. THERE ARE A FEW PATIENTS THAT DO NOT HAVE DENTAL COVERAGE AND ONLY HAVE PRIVATE/COMMERCIAL MEDICAL INSURANCE AND/OR MEDICARE. MEDICARE DOES NOT COVER DENTAL SERVICES. WE WOULD THEN OFFER AN OPTION TO PAY FOR SERVICES BASED ON SPECIFIC FINANCIAL CRITERIA AND A SLIDING FEE SCHEDULE. IF A PATIENT MEETS THE ELIGIBILITY OF THE SLIDING FEE SCHEDULE, THEY WOULD BE PLACED IN THE APPROPRIATE SCHEDULE TO PAY FOR SERVICES. THESE PATIENTS PROVIDE FINANCIAL DOCUMENTATION THAT STAFF IN THE FINANCE/BILLING DEPARTMENT VIEWS AND SHE THEN MAKES THE DETERMINATION FOR ELIGIBILITY.MATHENY'S OUTPATIENT BILLING FINANCIAL POLICY INFORMS PATIENTS OF THEIR ELIGIBILITY FOR PAYMENT OPTION THROUGH MATHENY'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. PART VI, LINE 4: COMMUNITY SERVICESMATHENY STAFF MEMBERS, INCLUDING THERAPISTS, TEACHERS, SOCIAL WORKERS, PSYCHOLOGISTS, NUTRITIONISTS AND NURSES, PARTICIPATE IN THE EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAM IN NEW JERSEY. WE ALSO PROVIDE NEW JERSEY STATE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION APPROVED ACADEMICALLY-BASED SPECIAL EDUCATION ASSISTANCE THROUGH A PROGRAM CALLED MATHENY SOLUTIONS FOR SCHOOLS. IN ADDITION TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES WE PROVIDE, WE ALSO TRY TO KEEP PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES AND THEIR FAMILIES UP-TO-DATE AND KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT OTHER ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS THAT ARE OCCURRING IN THE COMMUNITY. FOR EXAMPLE, WE MIGHT MAKE THEM AWARE OF WORKSHOPS FOR PARENTS OF CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS OR MUSICAL PRESENTATIONS FOR THE VISUALLY IMPAIRED OR WORKSHOPS ON PREVENTING DRUG ABUSE.A NEW OUTREACH PROGRAM WITHIN COMMUNITY SERVICES IS A PROJECT WHICH WILL TEACH SOCIAL SKILLS TO TWO AND THREE-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN WHO HAVE AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER, ADHD OR WHO HAVE DIFFICULTIES WITH SENSORY INTEGRATION. THESE CLASSES WILL BE TAUGHT AT FACILITIES IN THE COMMUNITY SUCH AS NURSERY SCHOOLS. AS WE ASSESS THE NEED FOR THIS SERVICE, IT MAY EXPAND BEYOND THIS AGE GROUP. AS OUR FIELD SUPERVISOR, WHO IS ALSO AN EARLY INTERVENTION SOCIAL WORKER, EXPLAINS, PARENTS OF THESE CHILDREN, "OFTEN REPORT TO ME THAT THEIR CHILDREN REALLY HAVE A HARD TIME BEING IN A GROUP OR OUT IN PUBLIC. THIS MAKES MANY OF THEIR PARENTS AFRAID TO TAKE THEM OUT IN PUBLIC. THESE PARENTS ARE LOOKING FOR A WAY TO HELP THEIR CHILDREN FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE IN GROUPS OF PEERS AND OTHER PUBLIC PLACES."WHEN MATHENY THERAPISTS AND EDUCATORS GO INTO PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS, THEY NOT ONLY TEACH THE STUDENTS, BUT THEY ALSO TRAIN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL STAFF, SO THAT THERAPIES AND OTHER TOOLS CAN BE USED WHEN THE MATHENY STAFF IS NOT ON DUTY. AS ONE PUBLIC SCHOOL DIRECTOR OF SPECIAL SERVICES SAYS OF THE MATHENY PHYSICAL THERAPIST ON HER STAFF: "SHE'LL TEACH THE TEACHER THE SKILLS THAT SHE'S TEACHING INDIVIDUALLY, AND THAT CONTINUES ALL DAY. SHE'S NOT JUST WORKING WITH THE CHILD; SHE'S WORKING WITH THE TEACHERS AND THE AIDES."OUR DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICES BELONGS TO COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS HEALTHIER SOMERSET, AN ORGANIZATION WHOSE GOAL IS TO IMPROVE HEALTH OF PEOPLE WHO LIVE AND WORK IN SOMERSET COUNTY; SOMERSET COUNTY COALITION FOR CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES; AND CHILD & MATERNAL HEALTH NETWORK, WHICH IS DEDICATED TO IMPROVING ACCESS FOR WOMEN AND THEIR CHILDREN TO HEALTHCARE IN THE COUNTY.MATHENY SOCIAL MEDIA MAKES PEOPLE AWARE OF ISSUES AND DEVELOPMENTS AFFECTING PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES. FOR EXAMPLE, RECENT FACEBOOK POSTS INCLUDED: A REPORT ON A BILL TO PREVENT DISCRIMINATION AGAINST PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES IN NEED OF TRANSPLANTS; AN ARTICLE ON NEW JERSEY PARENTS' REACTION TO NEWS THAT THE AMERICAN PSYCHIATRIC ASSOCIATION WAS PROPOSING A NARROWER DEFINITION OF AUTISM; A REPORT ON HOW ADVOCATES WERE PUSHING FOR MORE MONEY FOR THE SPECIAL NEEDS HOUSING TRUST FUND.INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITIES:WHEN POSSIBLE, WE HELP IMPROVE SERVICES AND KNOWLEDGE ABOUT CARING AND TREATING FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES IN OTHER COUNTRIES. FOR EXAMPLE, OUR DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICES AND ONE OF OUR PHYSICAL THERAPISTS TRAVELED TO UGANDA TO HELP A FACILITY FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES IN THAT COUNTRY BETTER CARE FOR THEIR PATIENTS. THE PURPOSE OF THE TRIP WAS TO ASSESS THE NEEDS OF 60 PATIENTS WHO RANGED IN AGE FROM A 12-YEAR-OLD CHILD TO SENIOR CITIZENS. MATHENY IS ALSO FREQUENTLY VISITED BY GROUPS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES, SEEKING TO LEARN ABOUT THE NEWEST TECHNIQUES FOR THE CARE AND TREATMENT OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.REHABILITATION TECHNOLOGY/SEATING & MOBILITY CLINICMATHENY'S REHABILITATION TECHNICIANS ARE TRAINED AND CERTIFIED IN THE SKILLS NECESSARY TO EVALUATE AND RESOLVE SEATING NEEDS OF PEOPLE IN WHEELCHAIRS BY RECOMMENDING AND PROVIDING THE APPROPRIATE EQUIPMENT, IN COLLABORATION WITH THERAPISTS - EITHER MATHENY'S THERAPISTS OR THERAPISTS IN OTHER FACILITIES THAT WE SERVE. OUR REHAB TECHNICIANS AND THERAPISTS SEEK TO EMPOWER INDIVIDUALS, THEIR FAMILIES AND CAREGIVERS WITH THE INFORMATION NECESSARY TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY.ONE RECENT EXAMPLE OF HOW OUR REHAB TECHNICIANS AND THERAPISTS REACH OUT INTO THE COMMUNITY INVOLVED A YOUNG WOMAN WITH A CONDITION CALLED FIBRODYSPLASIA OSSIFICANS PROGRESSIVA (FOP), A RARE GENETIC DISORDER CHARACTERIZED BY THE ABNORMAL GROWTH OF BONE IN SOFT TISSUE. THE DISEASE PROGRESSIVELY DISABLES THE BODY AS NEW BONE FUSES JOINTS AND CREATES IMMOBILITY. THE YOUNG WOMAN WITH THIS CONDITION WAS GETTING READY TO ENTER COLLEGE, AND SHE AND HER PARENTS WERE HOPING THERAPISTS AND REHAB TECHNICIANS AT MATHENY COULD EVALUATE HER FOR ADAPTIVE EQUIPMENT THAT MIGHT MAKE HER LIFE A LITTLE EASIER. SINCE HER MOBILITY WAS EXTREMELY LIMITED, MATHENY RECOMMENDED A POWER WHEELCHAIR WITH A STANDING FEATURE. THE RESULT IS THAT SHE IS ABLE TO NAVIGATE AROUND CAMPUS AND LIVE AS NORMAL A LIFE AS POSSIBLE. MEMBERS OF OUR REHABILITATION TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT REGULARLY VISIT PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN NEW JERSEY, IN SUCH CITIES AND COMMUNITIES AS DIVERSE AS NEWARK, CRANFORD AND BEDMINSTER. THEY CONSULT WITH THERAPISTS WORKING IN THOSE SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO DECIDE WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO EQUIPMENT FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES. SAYS A PHYSICAL THERAPIST IN THE NEWARK SCHOOL DISTRICT: "IT IS A PLEASURABLE WORKING EXPERIENCE, NOT ONLY FOR ME, BUT THE TEACHING STAFF, TOO."THESE ARE JUST TWO ILLUSTRATIONS OF HOW WE ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE EXPERTISE TO HELP PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY WITH SEATING AND MOBILITY ISSUES. IN ADDITION TO WORKING WITH FAMILIES, WE PROVIDE EVALUATIONS, SERVICE AND ADVICE TO SCHOOLS, DEVELOPMENTAL CENTERS AND RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.OUTREACH TO SCHOOLSIN AN EFFORT TO EDUCATE THE GENERAL PUBLIC ABOUT THE CHALLENGES FACED BY PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AND TO BREAK DOWN THE BARRIERS BETWEEN ABLE-BODIED STUDENTS AND STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES, WE VISIT AND COLLABORATE WITH PUBLIC AND INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS ON A VARIETY OF PROGRAMS. FOR EXAMPLE, WE VISITED AN EIGHTH GRADE CLASS IN A PUBLIC SCHOOL IN HUNTERDON COUNTY. THE ABLE-BODIED STUDENTS PLAYED ADAPTED VERSIONS OF HOCKEY AND BASKETBALL WHILE SITTING IN WHEELCHAIRS, BOWLED BY PUSHING A BUTTON AND PARTICIPATED IN MANUAL AND POWER WHEELCHAIR RACES. ALL OF THESE ACTIVITIES WERE PART OF A SPECIAL PHYSICAL EDUCATION CLASS THAT INCLUDED SIX STUDENTS FROM THE MATHENY SCHOOL. MATHENY STAFF AND STUDENTS DEMONSTRATED THE ADAPTED VERSIONS OF THESE SPORTS, AND THE TWO GROUPS OF STUDENTS COMPETED AGAINST EACH OTHER. GOAL OF THE PROGRAM IS TO PROMOTE INTERACTION BETWEEN BOTH GROUPS, ENABLING THEM TO COMPETE AS PEERS. STUDENTS FROM SCHOOLS THROUGHOUT THE NEARBY COMMUNITIES VOLUNTEER AT MATHENY, AND WE ARE OFTEN THANKED BY PARENTS, TEACHERS, SCOUT LEADERS, CHURCH YOUTH GROUP LEADERS, ETC. FOR THE ENRICHING EXPERIENCES WE OFFER THESE STUDENTS AND THE EDUCATION AND ENLIGHTENMENT THAT THEY WILL CARRY WITH THEM THROUGH THE REST OF THEIR LIVES. PATIENT/STUDENT PHILANTHROPYFACED WITH THEIR OWN PHYSICAL CHALLENGES, MATHENY PATIENTS AND STUDENTS, NEVERTHELESS, ENJOY GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.

PART VI, LINE 5: PROMOTION OF HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITY:THE MATHENY INSTITUTE FOR RESEARCH IN DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES CONDUCTS RESEARCH THAT HELPS PEOPLE WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES AND THEIR CAREGIVERS. WE PUBLISH OUR RESEARCH IN LEADING MEDICAL JOURNALS AND IN LEADING PUBLICATIONS IN THE FIELD OF DISABILITIES. WE PRESENT OUR RESEARCH AT REGIONAL, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCES AND OFTEN ADDRESS MEDICAL SCHOOLS AND GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED MEETINGS. AND WE CREATE MULTIMEDIA TRAINING TOOLS TO HELP MEDICAL SCHOOLS IN PREPARING THEIR STUDENTS TO CARE FOR AND TREAT PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES.WE WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PASSAGE OF A LAW IN NEW JERSEY THAT PROVIDES FAMILIES OF PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES GREATER AUTONOMY IN MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT PARTICIPATION IN POTENTIALLY BENEFICIAL RESEARCH. BEING AWARE OF AN INCONSISTENCY REGARDING GUARDIAN REQUIREMENTS CONTAINED IN TWO PREVIOUS PIECES OF LEGISLATION, OUR RESEARCH DIRECTOR AND CORPORATE COUNSEL BROUGHT THIS ISSUE TO THE ATTENTION OF NEW JERSEY STATE SENATOR CHRISTOPHER BATEMAN. SENATOR BATEMAN, ALONG WITH SENATOR ROBERT W. SINGER AND ASSEMBLYWOMAN MILA M. JASEY, SPONSORED BILLS THAT RESULTED IN THE NEW LAW.IN ADDITION TO CLEARING UP THE PREVIOUS INCONSISTENCY, THE NEW LAW EXPANDED THE RANGE OF STUDIES THAT ARE ALLOWED TO INCLUDE ONES THAT MIGHT NOT HAVE DIRECT BENEFIT TO THE INDIVIDUAL PARTICIPANT, BUT MIGHT HAVE BROADER BENEFIT TO PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES. THE PRACTICAL BENEFIT OF THE NEW LAW IS THAT FAMILIES OF PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES WILL HAVE THE FREEDOM THAT OTHER FAMILIES ENJOY TO WEIGHT THE RISKS AND BENEFITS OF AN APPROPRIATELY REVIEWED AND APPROVED RESEARCH STUDY. AND THEY WILL MAKE THEIR OWN INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS WILL PARTICIPATE.MATHENY HAS ALSO CREATED AN ONLINE DATABASE OF DENTISTS IN NEW JERSEY WHO SERVE PEOPLE WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. THIS WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY A GRANT FROM THE NEW JERSEY COUNCIL ON DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES (NJCDD). THAT DATABASE IS AVAILABLE AT WWW.DISABILITYHEALTH.ORG/DENTAL.
