## Resource

A Omaha family is sounding the alarm after their medically fragile, nonverbal 15-year-old son Paul was stripped of his dedicated one-on-one care — a critical safety net — following a state funding reassessment. Moved from “Advanced” to “High” tier, Paul now shares a single caregiver with two other clients, leading to missed meds and dangerous lapses. His parents argue the state’s outdated criteria — which excludes kids with supportive families — ignores real-world safety needs. The provider blames staffing, but the Stones say Paul’s well-being was compromised because of the system’s rigid rules. Now pulled from the program, they’re demanding policy overhaul to protect vulnerable kids and restore funding that truly reflects their needs.
