Flat $90 per hour · 10-hour minimum · on-site in Santa Ana where a local QIDP is available, remote statewide

Santa Ana

How does a Santa Ana ICF/DD home get a QIDP?

Santa Ana ICF/DD homes hire a contract QIDP by the hour rather than by salary. Book the free 15-minute call, and we assign the professional after it. The rate is a flat $90 per hour with a 10-hour minimum, paid directly to the QIDP.

What shapes the QIDP role in Santa Ana

The Regional Center of Orange County has its office in Santa Ana and serves the entire county from there. Homes in the city work with the regional center in their own back yard.

Team meetings, plan reviews and follow-up visits are easy to schedule in person here. That helps a home that is rebuilding its records, because the interdisciplinary process moves faster when people can meet.

Santa Ana homes serve a large Spanish-speaking community. Tell us on the call if you need a QIDP who speaks Spanish, and we will make that part of the match.

On-site or remote in Santa Ana

On-site hours in Santa Ana are usually available, because the regional center and a large group of licensed homes sit inside a short drive. Remote hours stay an option for records work.

We assign an experienced local QIDP first. Where none is available, the engagement runs remotely, unless you choose to cover travel costs.

Services

What can a contract QIDP do for your Santa Ana home?

Homes come to us at five different moments. Each one is scoped and quoted on its own, so you buy the hours the work needs and nothing else.

Each service is described in full on the main QIDP Consulting page.

Pricing

What does a QIDP cost in Santa Ana?

Flat $90* per hour, for every service and every engagement
  • 10-hour minimum engagement
  • 50 percent to start, 50 percent on completion, paid to your QIDP
  • Free 15-minute consultation before anything is quoted
  • Rate and estimated hours confirmed in writing before work begins
  • You pay the QIDP directly, as an independent contractor

* Discount available on longer engagements. Ask on the free 15-minute call.

We are a matching service. QIDP Consulting does not collect your fee and does not take a share of the hourly rate. The agreement and the payment are between your home and the professional.

How the hours are set

California sets the qualified professional service at 1.75 hours per client per week. In a six-bed home that is 10.5 hours a week. Read it as a floor. A Santa Ana home that is rebuilding records, or working through a plan of correction, normally needs more at the start and less once the systems hold.

DirectCare is our sister practice for the paperwork side of an ICF/DD home: program plan templates, attendant and medication training plans, and a document library you keep. Visit DirectCareHQ.com
