Open Door has its own spin on “Restaurant Impossible” You read it
The Voice Open Door Rehabilitation Center Serving Adults with Developmental Disabilities November-December 2012 Open Door has its own spin on “Restaurant Impossible” You read it here first! “Restaurant Possible!” Jack P.- Selecting the freshest bread. Food network and restaurant makeover shows sparked the interest of several Open Door clients. While watching a T.V. show, one individual casually mentioned she would like to try her hand in something like that. Thus, anything is possible at Open Door. A group of aspiring restruanteers gathered once a week for several weeks to prepare a meal fit for a King. Our own intermittent clients volunteered to try out the food and the service. The goal was to create the best food and dining experience possible. They first met to discuss the menu. They decided go with an Italian theme. It included a choice of Spaghetti and Chicken or Meat Ravioli for an entrée, soup or salad, apple pie or chocolate cake for desert and finally tea or coffee as a beverage. For shopping purposes, the guests were asked to pre-order their food. Next it was time to divvy up the duties John G.- Pie anyone? and assign jobs. This was the easiest part because they all choose what best suited them and the “staff” came together without a glitch. Lynn S. and Kelly B. decided they would work the kitchen. Angie H. and Michael P. would take care of the service end of it, and Jack P. happily took the job of bussing the tables. Behind the scenes, Angela T. and John G. assisted with the planning and shopping for the meal. Each member of the staff practiced and practiced their chosen job until their skills were polished. Angela T.- Deciding which sauce to purchase Volume 19 / Number 6 Once all of the planning was completed, they were off to the grocery store to make the purchases for the meal; lots of choices, brands and prices to consider. The shoppers were wise and careful with their selections making sure they were staying with the theme and within their budget. Opening night: the prep work done, tables set to perfection, OPEN DOOR REHABILITATION CENTER The Voice is the bi-monthly newsletter of Open Door Rehabilitation Center, a not-forprofit organization serving adults with developmental disabilities.

Contributors: Rita Potter Terra Stetz Laurie Wisdom Candi Baker Tami Carper Becky Clemons Gene Stephens Founders of ODRC William & Virginia Squier, Sr. David & Juanita Graf President Emeritus Robert J. Coleman, D.C. Executive Director David Baker Board of Directors Volunteer Leadership staff dressed neatly…. smiles…they were ready. Angie H. and Michael P. greeted their guests and invited them in for a fine dining experience. They were all very eager to be seated and brought an empty stomach ready to be filled. Once the meal was completed the guests complemented the chefs and the servers Kelly B. & Lynn S.- Preparing a salad. for a fantastic meal and wonderful service. They ate like kings and were treated like royalty. One of them asked when they planned to do it again…another suggested possibly trying a Mexican theme. Once all the guests left, the exhausted restaurateurs sat down to the meal themselves. They beamed at each other as they ate. Angie H. blurted out, “Mission Accomplished! If they want to come back, we must have done a great job!” It looks like with some hard work and dedication the clients made it all “Possible!” Choices. We always have them, but Mike P. & Angie H. Dressed for service we don’t always notice or use them.

Comparison Shopping Rosie B. writing down prices for pizza ovens Choices. We always have them, but we don’t always notice or use them. When it comes to shopping, sometimes we are just hurried to get the items crossed off our lists so we are not taking the time to find the best deal. In hopes of learning more about choices, some of the gang decided to spend a day checking prices at two stores and then eat a good lunch. Bill W. said he was ready to look for deals, “I think comparison shopping is good. I check prices with my mom, too.” Before leaving Open Door, we all made lists of what items we would like to price. We started off at a local big bargain store. It was here that Rosie B. asked to look at prices for a pizza oven. Rosie Kelly B. found some deals for CDs said that it is important “when you go to the store [to] look at the prices and see if you can find it cheaper.” It was in the big bargain store that we learned a really good lesson. Lori B found a CD priced at $3.99 but when we went to check out, the price was really $13.99! “I learned to watch what is going on [at the cash register]”, said Lori, and so did the rest of the gang! After pricing our items at the big bargain store, we headed to a resale shop to see if we could find any better deals. Kelly B. liked the resale store for finding CDs. She said that “we can get different CDs for a smaller price here Pat S. doing the math to figure out what is the best deal for shampoo and I like that.” The resale shop offered a lot of variety and lower prices, but we learned that if you were looking for something specific, you might want to stick to the big bargain chains. Pat S. priced shirts for her boyfriend and said she “learned about saving money by seeing what is cheaper, and lunch was good!” Speaking of lunch, we used that as another opportunity to talk of choices. Cara S. led the pack when she chose a grilled chicken sandwich over a hamburger and then she chose lemon ice over ice cream! Cara said that she “likes trying to be a little more healthy,” and we all appreciate her taking the lead on this! Rosie B. also made a healthy choice with a salad and no dessert afterwards. Way to go Rosie! Cara S. found a book she was interested in and at a great price too! Lori B. checking out the variety of jewelry offered at the resale store When we got back to Open Door, Rosie B. said, “I think we should do this more often because I think it is a good idea.” We agree Rosie; it is always a good idea to learn about your choices whether it be in the store or a restaurant. We also always have choices in how we treat one another and at Open Door that choice is easy, we choose to treat one another with respect and kindness! CHECK YOUR MAILBOX!

And what does it mean for me? The Ligas lawsuit was filed on behalf of adults with developmental disabilities residing in ICFs/DD who choose to move to community-based services or settings, and on behalf of adults with developmental disabilities residing at home who are seeking community-based services or settings. On June 15, 2011, a Consent Decree was signed by the Court in the Ligas lawsuit. The following is a synopsis of what exactly the consent decree means for individuals with developmental disabilities who live in Illinois: Principles of Ligas • People with disabilities will have a say and a choice about how and where services and supports will be provided. • People who want services in the community will have that option. • Person-centered planning will be used as the cornerstone in documenting individual needs and preferences. • Services will not be limited to those which are currently available Ligas Class Member • A member must be 18 or older with intellectual or developmental disability and Medicaid eligible; • A member lives in a private ICF/DD with 9 or more residents or lives in the family home seeking services; • The State of Illinois has a “current record” of the person seeking Community-Based Services or placement in a Community-Based Setting. What are my Rights as a Ligas Class Member? • You have the right to enroll if you qualify, and you have the right to not enroll or drop out of the class if you do not wish to receive community-based services. • If you are approved for community funding under Ligas, you have the right to choose from a menu of community providers and services. • If you are eligible for funding under crisis circumstances, you have the right to receive services in a timely manner. Timeline for Community Services for Class Members Living in ICFs/DD • Within six years, (6/15/17) all class members who live in ICFs/DD who request community services will transition to community settings. • Within two and one half years, (12/15/13) one third of class members in ICFs/DD who request community services will move. • Within four and one half years, (12/15/15) an additional one third of class members in ICFs/ DD who request community services will move. “Waiting List” Class Members • Class members who move to ICF/DD after 6/15/11 and request community services will be placed on a waiting list. • Class member residing at home, not in crisis will be placed on waiting list. • 1,000 class members from waiting list will receive community services by 6/15/2013. • 500 additional by 6/15/2014. • 500 additional by 6/15/2015. • 500 additional by 6/15/2016. • 500 additional by 6/15/2017. • At the end of six years class members will move off the waiting list at a reasonable pace.

Try & he did. Chevy dealerships are celebrating their 100th anniversary this year. Gjovik commented, “I have been a dealer for almost half of that.” Baker thanked Olaf once again for his continued loyal support. Gjovik replied, “We try to be part of the community, we try to help out.” L to R: Dave Sloan, CATA President & General Manager of the Chicago Auto Show, Kurt Schiele, CATA Chairman & Co-Show Chairman for the Chicago Auto Show, Mary Fran Dolan, Former CATA Director & owner of Freeway Ford, Olaf Gjovik, owner of Gjovik Chevy, Buick, GMC., Candi Baker, Marketing & Development Coordinator for Open Door, Dave Baker, Executive Director of Open Door. Off to the Show!! Jen M. with Maggie and Ann Y. with Honey Bun For fourteen years, Open Door consumers have been participating in equine therapy through Equine Dreams Therapeutic Riding Center in Newark, IL. It is a program to assist consumers in a therapeutic environment for various disabilities: physical, mental, and emotional. Most of the activities at the riding center involve: grooming skills, learning a horse’s anatomy, walking, commands, feeding, nutrition, and physical exercises. Some consumers ride a trained therapeutic training horse. Others enjoy just being in the fresh air around the horses and out in the country, but don’t want to ride. On the flip side, we have a lot of people who would prefer to ride all day! Beth M. with Gracie day) were solid, well rounded equines. However, due to many circumstances, they were in need of a lot of retraining. The purpose of this donation was to provide a new learning environment and therapeutic challenge for consumers participating at the riding facility. After a very long year of hard work and patience, most of the minis were transferred from a private farm to the riding facility. Once graduated, Sharon (owner of the center) introduced the Open Door consumers to the minis. Each consumer Debbie K. and Honey Bun was assigned a mini that they were to work with in all areas of grooming, leading, haltering, and then eventually showing. That’s right… SHOWING!!! The consumers “graduated” from their riding program this fall to start a new class, which has been a year in the We are smack dab in the middle of Halter Class. The making. A dozen miniature “mini” horses were donated consumers get their mini from the pen, let them eat some to the program. These show horses (well trained in their Dennis S. and Jack P. with Déjà vu grass then lead them to the indoor arena (outside when its warm enough) where they line up and maintain a good line with their horses. They then move through several simple patterns working on proper techniques, style and commands. So far we have worked on circles, weaving, and tracking (direction the horse will turn in the arena). Beth, who has been with the program from the very first day fourteen years ago, loves this personal time with her special horse, Gracie. “She knows my moods and will follow my lead. She’s a very smart horse!” We currently have eight consumers participating: Brandon has Maggie; Kristina, Billy and Ann share Honey Bun; Dennis works with Belle Star; Jack works with Déjà vu; Jen works with Black Beauty; and Debbie works with Whimsy, who is the baby at 10 months old. “Whimsy is so cute and fun,” Debbie said. Whimsy is a handful, like any other youngster, but Debbie does very well with her. The skills they practice and learn every week will eventually conclude with a horse show or two… or three! The plan for the Halter Class and shows is for them to take place at Equine Dreams or the Kendall County Fair Grounds. Jen M. with Maggie The judges will be real horse show judges and, of course, family and friends will be invited to share the excitement with their loved ones. The consumers will earn points, which then determine placing for ribbons and trophies. The consumers are doing excellent with this new program, enjoying the daily one- on- one contact with their horses and taking pride in learning the new skills while working almost independently; not to mention that it is FUN!! So… we will keep you posted when its time to be ‘Off to the Show!!’ The whole gang on Graduation Day!
