They will work with many entities on the day of clinic. One of the Care Coordinators, typically the Care Coordinator who is assigned to the family, will help facilitate the day for the family. She/He will ensure they see all of the appropriate team members and guide them through their IEPC visit. The child/youth and their family will rotate through seeing an MD or ARNP, a Psychologist, and a Social Worker. After each caregiver has had time with the child/youth and their family, the team gathers for a clinical staffing.
Staffings can be attended by school and community professionals already involved in the child/youth’s care. This helps to ensure that all areas of need are addressed for the child/youth and their family. The staffing time is used to discuss the findings of each team member and converse with the family about possible treatment options to help the youth and/or the family. During this time, the Staff Nurse will also ensure that a follow up appointment is made within the specified amount of time.
