Comprehensive Care in Residential Settings
Comprehensive Care in Residential Settings (CCRSs) is a demonstration project that offers a social model of affordable assisted living in the state of Illinois. These facilities combine affordable rent with state-assisted care services provided through the Department on Aging's Community Care Program (CCP). The actual services are tailored to each individual resident through assessment completed by a Care Coordination Unit (CCU).
