Facilitating Effective Transitions From Inpatient And Residential Placement To Home And Community Settings

When individuals are placed outside their home or community residence to receive additional treatment, it is important that strategies and supports be put in place to support effective transitions back home.  This webinar will begin by reviewing challenges that are important to address.  We will then discuss the benefits of early planning for transition to a less restrictive setting.  Strategies to identify and teach skills necessary to effectively adapt to the community setting will be reviewed, along with efforts to generalize improved behavior to a less structured environment.
