WHAT SUPPORT LOOKS LIKE
Assess. Plan. Train. Step Back.
Much of this work involves interviewing caregivers and team members, then training and supporting them directly – rather than extensive direct observation of the individual alone. It’s typically a standalone engagement: a team doesn’t need ongoing intensity or funding, or wants a clinical assessment before pursuing a different service.
Documented Need Areas
Mental health.
Functional Motor Skills.
Social/Leisure Skills.
Augmentative Communication.
FAQ
-
Usually not. It's typically a standalone, one-time engagement — step in, assess, write the plan, train the team, and step back out. Most often, a team either doesn't need (or doesn't have funding for) something ongoing, or just wants a clinical assessment before deciding on a different service altogether.
