Introduction to Blog and IFSP Goal Writing

The TECS Allied eHealth Blog will begin with information and questions related to IFSP goals.

IFSP goals-- did you know that if you're helping to develop IFSP goals, they should be written in a way that relates to everyday activities? This allows family and others' participation, reflects the natural environments requirement, and helps IFSP goals be more "functional."
Sample IFSP Goal 1 - Tom will communicate toys he wants and other needs in activities throughout the day. Treatment plan objectives could then relate to length of verbal utterances, use of gestures, use of other communicative intents, sound production, etc., in everyday activites-- this means that at some point quickly, families will be involved.
Sample IFSP Goal 2 - Mary will hold and use toys and other items to take part in everyday activities. Treatment plan objectives could relate to reaching for, picking up, grasping, and holding a spoon with built up handle and specified seating; using a spoon to scoop, holding a toy and shaking it to make sounds during a song, at daycare, etc. -- this means that at some point quickly, daycare staff will be involved.

Click on "comment" below and share questions, experiences, or other suggestions for implementing or reporting on IFSP goals or outcomes. Feel free to post any other constructive comments. Also, please let us know if this is something you like or don't find helpful, so that we can continue to plan future activities.

I like this blog. I need a place to communicate with early intervention allied health providers. I find your comments about goals helpful. I am trying to sort out the difference between my goals and E. I.'s outcomes.
How do we introduce a new topic? I am concerned about the Medicaid raise. What happened? The memo I got today indicated a rate of $10 per 15 minute unit. This is the same rate per hour as we have been using for ten years.

Thank you! We hope this blog will be a useful way to exchange information, ask questions,etc.
1)To introduce a new topic, just note it in your comment, as you did about the Medicaid question. I will respond in a comment or may post the question. 2)I posted your Medicaid question and will followup too. 3)If you want to, can you tell me more about trying to sort out the difference between your IFSP goals and Special Instructors'? It is o:K for two team members to work on the same IFSP goals or to have overlap; ideally, you would communicate with each other to coordinate. To see more information about the role of Special Instructors, check out the following link http://uscm.med.sc.edu/tecs/TECSmessage_on_Special_Instruction1.doc
