CDSS has issued instructions about Notices of Action for determinations about In Home Supportive Services Protective Supervision. CDSS developed Notice of Action messages to provide additional explanation for a Protective Supervision determination. The purpose of the messages is to increase understanding of the basis for a Protective Supervision determination. County social workers can select the message to be included in the Notice of Action.
The messages include explanations for no risk of injury, hazard or accident; individual is self-directing, not mentally impaired or mentally ill; need is caused by a medical condition and supervision required is medical; no eligibility for anticipation of a medical emergency; no eligibility to prevent or control aggressive or anti-social behavior; no eligibility to guard against deliberate self-harm; and no need for 24 hour supervision.
