LinkAbility Family Report & Resources
What are the meetings you will have with your Service Coordinator?
• Initial Plan Meetings: When you transfer to our agency or receive your initial placement with our agency from the Springfield Regional Office.
• One Month Review: After your initial plan meeting, this review will be held one month later to get your family established for quarterly meetings.
• Quarterly Reviews: These meetings are held every three months to check in on our consumer’s, their services and lives to ensure they are happy and healthy.
• Annual Plan Meetings: This is a once per year meeting to write the ISP (Individual Support Plan)
• Amendment Meetings: These meetings will involve the entire planning team to make changes to the ISP-such as, requesting new services or general changes.
Why Do We Do These Meetings?
- We do quarterly meetings to ensure that your family is healthy, happy, and that there is nothing we can offer you.
- The LinkAbility Consumer Assistance Fund could pay for related needs and care items for your loved one we serve!
- Annual plan meetings, amendment meetings, & initial plan meetings are to ensure that we can write the ISP as detailed and complete as possible.
Every year we want to provide updated care, needs, and services information to ensure that everyone understands and can assist in caring for your loved one. - Never hesitate to reach out to our office or your Service Coordinator in the event that you require additional assistance, an emergency meeting, or have questions!
