Personal Outcome Measures Personal Outcome Measures cover areas such as choice, health, safety, social capital, relationships, rights, goals, dreams and employment. Recent data proves those supported through Mosaic at Home achieve an impressive 18 of these 22 POMs. An important CQL study showed when people with IDD are able to choose where and with whom to live, participate in their communities and experience continuity and security, they are less likely to visit the ER. Those served through Mosaic at Home are more likely to have these three outcomes present. While all three of these outcomes contributed to fewer ER visits, “People with IDD who chose where and with whom to live in the community had a 74% decrease in emergency room visits compared to people with IDD who did not choose where and with whom to live.”* Mosaic President and CEO Linda Timmons sums it up best: “All of those little positive changes in someone’s life are important. They help people thrive.” *Friedman, C. (2021). Choosing Home: The Impact of Choosing Where to Live on People With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities’ Emergency Department Utilization. People choose where and with whom they live. People participate in the life of the community. People experience continuity and security. Promise | 9
