Submission date: 3/5/09
Submitted by: Charlene Henry
Provider name: Futures for Special Needs
APD Area: 12

Practice
The provider uses monthly documentation that includes three areas. 1) progress on goals, 2) problem areas and 3) emerging skills/achievements

Who Benefits? How?
The Provider and the Individuals. Staff is better able to track what’s happening with the person’s goal(s). As skills increase or a new skill is discovered, the staff can use this to motivate the person to continue in a positive direction. Problem areas can be discussed for resolution if they are pin-pointed month by month. When problem areas are resolved they can be celebrated as achievements.
