described in this rule, must apply in any residential or non-residential
setting.
(2) When a condition under

and safety of an individual or others in a provider owned, controlled, or
operated residential setting, an individually-based limitation process, as
described in this rule, must apply.
(3) An individually-based limitation must be
supported by a specific assessed need and documented in the person-centered
service plan by completing and signing a program approved form documenting the
consent to the appropriate individually-based limitation. The form identifies
and documents, at minimum, all of the following requirements:
(a) The specific and individualized assessed
need justifying the individually-based limitation.
(b) The positive interventions and supports
used prior to any individually-based limitation.
(c) Less intrusive methods that have been
tried but did not work.

individual, including any discrepancy between the wishes of the individual and
the consent of the legal representative.
