Introduction to new Support Documents

This webinar will provide an overview of newly published versions of protocols and a financial plan. It will focus on how to use the new general protocol, the new financial plan, and give tips to providers on how to write support documents.

Participants can expect to learn:

  • When a support document may be helpful
  • How to access the newest protocols and anticipated timelines for release
  • Overview of the new basic protocol
  • Overview of the new financial plan

The Office of Developmental Disability Services (ODDS) will be publishing new support documents in PDF format. These documents will include the following protocols: Aspiration/Choking, Constipation, Dehydration, Seizures, Pica, and a general protocol. A new Financial Plan will also be published.

All of the new support documents feature options to highly personalize them to each person’s unique support needs. Special focus is paid to highlight the person’s preferences on how to be supported and what the person does for him/herself around the issue.

This webinar is recommended for providers who write support documents and SC/PAs who review them.
