General CEU: Structuring the Intake Process to Establish Rapport with Caregivers From the Start of Service

Structuring the Intake Process to Establish Rapport with Caregivers From the Start of Service is the kind of topic that looks straightforward until it collides with the speed, ambiguity, and competing demands of home routines, treatment sessions, interdisciplinary consultation, and health-related skill support. In Structuring the Intake Process to Establish Rapport with Caregivers From the Start of Service, for this course, the practical stakes show up in safe, humane intervention that respects health variables and daily-life feasibility, not in abstract discussion alone.

This presentation will take a look at using these parent perspectives to build a strong initial foundation for the start of services. We will take a look at the intake process and seek to modify our approaches using best practices and compassionate care models. Looking at intakes from a collaborative model will help build parent rapport and provide perspective into appropriate, achievable goals for the family as a whole.
