SORTING THINGS OUT
Why send them away from home? When? Who to turn to? Who can help us make decisions? Will we choose the right program? How will we know what suits us? Who will fund it? Where to start? Can we back out…?
These are only some of the questions that pop up in every family’s dilemma, regarding if and when to seek outside residential programs for their loved ones.
In this link to the Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Services’ website (Hebrew and Arabic only), you will find an explanation regarding the process of referral to the different housing programs in Israel.
You may also contact us with any question you might have, via e-mail: info@amit-grouphomes.co.il
HOW MUCH DOES THE FAMILY PAY “AMIT”?
Nothing.
There is no financial exchange between the family and the program, we receive payment only directly from the Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Services.
If the potential resident is under 21 years old, the country normally charges the family a partial fee, which is payed through the local authority.
Amit Home Ltd. Does not receive money from the families and all its services are funded fully by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Services.
WHAT DO THE RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMS IN AMIT SUPPLY FOR THE RESIDENTS?
Everything.
All physical, educational, therapeutic, medical, cultural and recreational needs are funded by the country via the Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Services.
A HOME FOR LIFE
Turning to the Ministry, getting diagnosed, obtaining a list of programs and eventually choosing the right one and setting the date of entrance… Sometimes the process gives rise to a complex array of emotions in the hearts of the applicant and their family.
From the moment choose one of Amit’s programs, we accompany and assist you in making this process as easy and pleasant as possible.
We are here.
We are here to help transform the painful process of separation, into a fascinating process of re-discovery and fresh start.
We are here because you chose us.
We are here because Amit means friend, a lifelong friend.
RECEPTION
Each Amit home has a unique reception process specialised for the character of its residents.
