AIMES Homes

AIMES Homes has a staff of dedicated care workers. The staff coordinates and
performs with a team-based approach, providing 24 hour quality care to all
residents. The program is a well structured routine, designed to provide a safe,
secure living environment for all our residents. Each resident can grow and
work toward resolving their own specific issues. Also implemented as part of
the program is a wide range of recreational and social activities which
reinforces positive interaction among both staff and residents. Each resident's
personal investment in the program is nurtured and promoted by the team,
which results in stable and long term success.

Residents come together in a residential setting from a variety of backgrounds
and social arrangements. Many of our residents have experienced problems in
dealing effectively within their schools or communities, have experienced family
issues such as abuse and neglect, substance abuse.  Understanding that
each resident has specific needs, our staff work one on one with our residents
continuously to help them accept and work through their own unique issues
and to accept responsibility and accountability.
