Description

“Muscatatuck was decertified and lost their ICF/MR certification that they'd had for about 20 years. And that was considerable revenue loss. And so, a decision was made through some -- a lot of discussion to -- that Muscatatuck would be closed.” Randy describes the process involved in closing Muscatatuck State Developmental Center in the early 2000s and the community’s reaction to the closure. “I was asked to go down and help at Muscatatuck…There were many weeks I never left the grounds from Monday to Friday.” Randy discusses the structure developed to transition people out of the state developmental center. There were several committees formed and training conducted. “No one left Muscatatuck unless they had all their services in place," explains Randy. He was interviewed in 2012.
