We're proud to have participated in the Buckland Review of Autism Employment. This review has the potential to revolutionise inclusive workspaces for people who have learning disabilities or autism. https://lnkd.in/dSMfUbev Check out the 19 practical recommendations for employers and government, to tackle the fact that only 30% of working age autistic people are currently in employment and championing the productivity benefits of a neurodiverse workforce. For people with learning disabilities the statistics are even more shocking – only 5% of people in paid employment, despite 86% wanting to work. At SeeAbility, we envision inclusive communities where everyone is treated equally. Our supported employment program, is the key to making this vision a reality.

🎉 Happy DSP Week! 🎉 Impruvon Health is truly honored to support you! There is nothing better for me than hearing from a DSP or House Manager how easy Impruvon is to use, and how much stress it is saving their teams. I have personally interviewed well over 300 DSPs over the last 4 years and truly understand how difficult their job is, and unfortunately how under-appreciated they are. The medication management process DSPs are expected to follow is impossible to conduct on time, successfully on a daily basis. To make matters worse, DSPs are forced to try to manually navigate it with file cabinets, 3 ring binders, and when mistakes or errors occur they are always the one to blame leading to absurd turnover rates for DSPs (upwards of 65%). This is a process problem, not a people problem. Impruvon Health permits a simplified and streamlined regulatory compliant process, saving enough time to enable DSPs to complete competing tasks they otherwise could not, ultimately improving the health of the individuals they serve.
🌟 Happy Direct Support Professional (DSP) Week from Impruvon Health! 🌟 This week we extend our gratitude to the dedicated DSPs who uplift the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) nationwide! Your tireless commitment is truly inspiring. Impruvon Health is proud to work so closely with DSPs and their supporting provider agencies day in and day out. We couldnt be happier with the feedback we get from DSPs every day - "I cant believe it is so easy" because we know this is not the standard. It is our mission to simplify and streamline your complexities and stressors so that you can focus on delivering exceptional care. Your dedication shines and we are honored to support you. Happy DSP Week! 🎉 #dspweek #impruvonhealth #dsp #idd #directsupportprofessionals

🧑🏫IEP Trainer / 🔥Special Education Advocate / 🎤 Presenter & Education Consultant / 🗣️Talks about strength-based assessments and how to Build a Better IEP™️
Is your teen heading to college with an IEP? If "yes", you'll need to educate yourself AND your teen on how disability services look different... 👇 Here's the truth: Unless your teen signs a FERPA waiver, you won't have access to their academic, medical, or health records. What does this mean? ❌ No access to grades ❌ No more talking to professors ❌ No more progress monitoring ❌ No more meetings/concerned calls (unless it's an emergency) Your teen is completely in change, folks. This is a BIG change... Educate yourself and your teen NOW, before they go. Give them the tools they deserve to self-advocate. 👉Tap the LINK to help your neurodiverse teen access disability support! 🙌 https://lnkd.in/gmW8mNsP #prepforcollege #collegesupport #collegeservices #disabilitysupport #iepplan #504plan #specialeducation #iep #disability #spedteacher #learningdisabilities #adhd #autism #specialeducationadvocate #school #schoolpsychologist #ot #slp #bcba

College Admissions for Neurodivergent Students 👩🏾🎓👨🎓| Clinical Psychologist | Writer ✍️ | Keynote Speaker 🎤
The Frist Center for Autism and Innovation | Vanderbilt University announces: We are pleased to share with you an updated version of the IDD toolkit. This website provides information for providers of adults with intellectual and developmental #disabilities (IDD). It offers best-practice tools and information regarding specific medical and behavioral concerns of adults with IDD, including resources for patients and families. One aspect of the revisions is a greater focus on the role of the self-advocate in their own health care. The IDD Toolkit update is a project of the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center, done with extensive cooperation of Surrey Place in Toronto, Ontario, and funded by the WITH Foundation. The toolkit is an adaption for U.S. use of tools developed by the Canadian team, Tools for the Primary Care of Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (2003) with Surrey Place. These tools support primary care clinicians implementing the Canadian consensus guidelines on the primary care of adults with IDD. An advisory committee of health care clinicians, researchers, faculty, family members, self-advocates, and a Surrey Place representative provided review and recommendations on the toolkit for use in our U.S. health care system.
