About
An ICF MR/DD is a residential intermediate care facility (ICF) designed for patients with mental retardation (MR) or developmental disability (DD). The distinction between MR and DD is not clear in this context; some facilities designated only "MR" (ICF MR) will accept DD patients, and possibly vice-versa. It may be that there are no specific criteria. (Further research is needed.)
Usage
This terminology appears to be in use in at least the following states: Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio (possibly also South Dakota and Wisconsin)
Facilities
- RHA Howell: a large non-profit in North Carolina with about a dozen facilities of varying sizes
