1.0 hours. Part 1: Practitioners working through the DDW system serve clients with a range of
physical, emotional, and intellectual disabilities in a variety of community settings. DDSD provides state-level guidance, but interpretation and implementation vary widely across providers and teams. This presentation will provide useful strategies to assist practitioners with implementing collaborative-consultative services consistent with NM DOH/DDSD Standards. Tools to increase positive interactions between clients, therapists, caregivers, and community agencies will be included.
Part 2: Interactive discussion addressing participant submitted questions related to providing training for DSP, participation during IDT meetings, and navigating difficult team dynamics.
