Building Momentum: Transition to the Next Level of Care
The HANDS in Autism® team works to facilitate shared dialogue, awareness, and consistent use of evidence-based practices towards the best positive outcomes once the individual transitions back to the community from the NDI. This work begins prior to admission with the pre-admission contacts followed by options for self-paced and self-directed options for online and other learning while the individual is on the unit. Post-discharge, the focus is on more active and direct engagement across all collaborative team members towards greater integration and sustainability of progress as the individual returns to community life.
