The Medically Fragile Program is designed to serve adults with disabilities and who may have experienced decreased abilities due to aging and who have extensive and complicated healthcare issues. An MR diagnosis is required for this program. The goal of this program is to maintain and enhance an individual's physical, cognitive, social and emotional abilities that will result in an optimal quality of life for each individual.

The Medically Fragile Program's professional staff consists of a Licensed Practical Nurse, Certified Nursing Assistants and a Driver/Aide. These staff members consult with families, physical therapists, occupational therapists, special education teachers, doctors, case managers and residential providers to ensure a comprehensive, individualized program to meet each individual's goals.

The Medically Fragile Program opened in 1997 with start- up money from the Loudoun County United Way. In October 2000, the program moved in to their new facility located at 71 Lawson Road in Leesburg. The program continues to grow and will be expanding to a larger space.
