Decreasing the Delegating Dilemma- Ensuring Quality Implementation of Programming from every Team Member
Creating a set of child-specific meaningful targets and functional priorities is a vital component for the continued growth of a child with hearing loss. Having targets addressed by team members is just as critical. Receiving and sharing accurate data on implementation can then create stability for quality programming in both private and public settings. With large caseloads, application of individual education plans through the support of Educational Assistants, and the rich environments children with hearing loss experience, there are often multiple facilitators implementing goals for each child. These can include close family support, daycare providers, and common contacts in the community. Combine these with an already large multidisciplinary collaborative team and you start to see that delegating with fidelity is essential. However, it can be hard. Goal tracking, reporting, training, and encouraging participation take skill, focus, and solid communication methods. This presentation will directly address these issues with these objectives: Parents and professionals will work together to identify who in their communities and families can become part of their support team to help practice goals in meaningful ways. Parents and professionals will develop and review strategies for delegating skill practice to their support teams in easily understood and trackable ways. Parents and professionals will identify and choose shared data collection methods that will work best for them to help. With this increased reporting and multiple perspectives, we can then ensure programming is appropriately dialed in and moving each child forward in their best direction.
•Participants will recognize opportunities to expand their support communities by sharing teaching opportunities in their child’s everyday routines outside of the clinic.
•Participants will develop strategies for delegating skill practice to other providers, parents, and family members.
•Participants will review methods for shared data collection and reporting between all team members to ensure quality programming.
