Overview
Mission
R Way began operations Oct 1, 1991 and provides day and residential rehabilitation services and service coordination for persons disabled by severe and persistent mental illness in the 22 county area designated as Region IV geographical area of Nebraska.
What it reported doing in 2015
Residential Rehabilitation services- KIRKWOOD HOUSE is a 12 bed facility staffed by 24 hour awake staff. Residents learn or relearn skills which include cooking, shopping, cleaning, budgeting their funds and laundry. R Ways personnel provide assistance to residents in helping them to develop personal and daily living skills. Medication management is a critical component of the program. There is a mock apartment on-site where residents live before they move into the community. Psychiatric Residential Rehabilitation is a facility based program for people that are disabled by mental illness who are unable to reside in a less restrictive residential setting. The desired goals include improvement in functioning so that the individual can live successfully in an environment of their choosing within the scope of their capabilities and resources and to reduce the frequency and duration of hospitalization. The program is essentially the same as the prior year.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 83% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
