Certified Home Nursing Solutions, a leading provider of home care and Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA) services across Maryland, is raising awareness about the growing need for better community support for individuals with disabilities who rely on home-based care.
Following their recent interview featured in Inside Business & Community Care, co-founders Tasha Brown and Adrius King are advocating for greater public understanding of the unique challenges faced by individuals with disabilities—and the importance of community involvement in supporting them.
“Disability home care isn’t just about medical tasks,” explained Tasha Brown. “It’s about creating an environment where people can thrive, live independently, and feel connected to their community. That requires more than just caregivers—it takes neighbours, employers, and everyday people being willing to help and include.”
According to the Maryland Developmental Disabilities Administration, more than 26,000 Marylanders with developmental disabilities currently receive state services, with thousands more requiring additional home-based care and support to live safely and independently. Many of these individuals depend on services such as job coaching, transportation assistance, supported living, and skill-building activities.
Certified Home Nursing Solutions offers a wide range of disability care services, from personal support with daily living to vocational training and respite care. But the founders stress that no care agency can do it alone.
“We’ve seen clients flourish with just a bit of community support,” said Adrius King. “One of our clients gained employment because a local shop owner took a chance and offered flexible hours with job coaching. Another began participating in community classes after a neighbour volunteered to drive her. These small actions can change lives.”
The company encourages Marylanders to play an active role in supporting individuals with disabilities in their communities.
Simple actions people can take include:
-
Offer inclusive opportunities in local workplaces, schools, and events.
-
Volunteer for community transport programmes or support services.
-
Check in on neighbours with disabilities to offer friendship or assistance.
-
Promote disability awareness within social groups and local organisations.
-
Encourage accessible public spaces by speaking to local councils or businesses.
Brown highlighted that inclusion doesn’t always require large-scale changes. “Sometimes it’s about small gestures—inviting someone to a local gathering, offering a lift, or just saying hello,” she said. “These moments help individuals with disabilities feel valued, connected, and supported.”
King added that many people misunderstand disability home care as something separate from community life, when in fact, they are deeply linked. “People often assume it’s just clinical care behind closed doors, but it’s much more than that,” he explained. “It’s about giving people the tools, resources, and relationships to lead fulfilling lives.”
With demand for disability services growing steadily, particularly for in-home care, the company believes now is the time for communities to step up and help bridge the gap.
“This isn’t just a job for care providers,” Brown said. “It’s about making sure everyone has a fair shot at independence and inclusion. Each of us can play a role, whether we’re business owners, neighbours, or just caring community members.”
