048-43 Wyo. Code R. § 43-5

Current through April 27, 2019
Section 43-5 - Philosophy

(a) All persons possess inalienable rights under the Constitutions of the United States and the State of Wyoming, including persons with acquired brain injuries.

(b) It is the philosophy of the Division to develop reasonable and enforceable rules for the provision of services to individuals with acquired brain injuries in community settings in lieu of unnecessary institutionalization. This philosophy is mandated in the Supreme Court ruling on Olmstead v. L.C. ex rel. Zimring, 527 U.S. 581 (1999).

(c) This Chapter is designed not only to support the philosophy of community-based services but to also protect the health, welfare, and safety of participants.
