Here
are some guidelines for selecting and keeping therapists...
- Intervention is typically
anywhere from 20-40 hours a week. Most
therapists work in 2-3 hour shifts. That sounds like a lot, but
it is the amount shown in the literature to be effective.
- How many you have
depends upon availability, etc…However, I would make sure
each therapist works a minimum of one shift per week.
- Sessions should be
run in multiple areas of the house, as well as outside in the
community. Please don’t use only a special
“ABA area”.
- Most entry-level
therapists earn anywhere from 10-12/hr
- More experienced
therapists earn from 15-20/hr
- Look into your insurance,
FSAs, etc… to see what they might reimburse you for.
