[quote=Anonymous] OP - If you are living in a state with good nursing care services for you child in-home and seemingly in a school division with good supports for those with complex medical needs, those are going to be hard to replicate in the DMV. Also, remember that your child will need services for a lifetime, and that a waiver is not transferable so as indicated DC would have to start all over again in the waiting line. There seem to be so many variables that you would have to consider and bottom line would be that you would always have to be able to step in and provide direct care until a replacement nanny, sitter or au pair was found AND have the time to train them. If you have the medical support your child needs and if your child is in a supportive and at least fairly inclusive setting, be very, very thankful.[/quote]
