We develop goals with your loved one and family. We balance what’s important to the person (their wishes—skills, friendships, employment, independence) and what’s important for the person (health, safety, stability such as medication management, safety awareness, and medical care).
Through the Individual Support Plan (ISP)—a written plan capturing the person’s priorities and their health/safety needs.
The Supports Intensity Scale (SIS) is a Virginia‑approved assessment that measures the level of support needed in daily living, community involvement, relationships, and health/safety. It guides staffing and support intensity.
Kemetic Services is always open to reviewing possible options for any individuals in need of support services.
Start with our Contact Form, and we’ll guide you. Intake paperwork and additional forms are available in the Resources section.
We specialize in in‑home support, life skills training, and health assistance tailored for individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Our executive leadership team members Dr. Alexander Moore and Jenae Moore provide hands‑on guidance and support. With over 30 years of combined experience serving individuals with intellectual disabilities, they bring the knowledge, skills, and compassion your family member deserves.

Yes. Residents are encouraged to use their own decorations to make their room truly their own—it’s their home.
A structured, ongoing process—often via the ISP/person‑centered plan—to tailor services to the person’s unique needs, strengths, and preferences.
You must partner with a DBHDS‑licensed Sponsored Residential Services provider agency—the agency recruits, trains, monitors, and handles Medicaid billing, documentation, and compliance. Start by contacting your local CSB or reviewing the DBHDS provider list.
After a home study and approval, the agency matches you with an individual based on compatibility (age, gender, support needs, lifestyle, preferences). You’ll meet and plan a gradual transition into your home.
Sponsors receive a stipend (room & board) plus service payments billed via Medicaid by the provider agency. Rates vary by support level (often informed by the SIS).
Eligible individuals are placed on the statewide DD Waiver waitlist. Priority is set by slot assignment (Priority 1 indicates the most urgent need). The waitlist is managed by DBHDS and the CSB.
Slots are limited; many individuals wait—sometimes years. The CSB will contact you when a slot becomes available and you are next by priority.
You’ll work with your CSB Support Coordinator to create a person‑centered ISP identifying desired services (e.g., sponsored residential, day support, in‑home services). The plan is submitted to DMAS (Virginia Medicaid) for authorization.
After Medicaid authorization and provider selection, services begin once providers are in place and all approvals are complete.
At Kemetic Services, we believe in providing tailored support that meets the unique needs of each individual. Whether it’s in-home help during difficult times or skill development, we are dedicated to enhancing every client’s life.
