Action Proposed

The Screening involves taking a brief look at the developmental areas of cognition, gross motor, fine motor, communication, social-emotional, adaptive, health including vision, and hearing. The screening results will be used to determine if your child needs to complete the multidisciplinary evaluation process to determine eligibility for early intervention services. The results of the screening are kept in your child's early intervention record. This information will remain confidential.

Description

How the screening is performed will vary based on the needs of your child. It will include review of available medical/developmental records, parent interview, child observation, and administration of formal and informal screening tools. Screening team members will talk with you about these methods.

Timelines

The screening, multidisciplinary team evaluation, assessment and development of an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) must be completed within 45 calendar days from the date your child was referred to the early intervention program. If your family needs additional time beyond the 45 days, it is important that you tell your Family Service Coordinator.
