We urge you to promptly inform Grow Developmental Disability Solutions of any issues that may impact the ISP renewal, such as potential loss of Medicare coverage or renewal difficulties. Failure to do so may lead to the responsibility of financially compensating the Direct Support Professional. To ensure a smooth renewal, please schedule evaluations at least one month before the ISP's expiration. For assistance or questions regarding the client's assessment, please contact us directly. Your proactive communication is essential in avoiding service interruptions and managing financial obligations efficiently.

Nurse Delegation: Delegation generally involves assignment of the performance of activities or tasks related to the client to unlicensed assistive personnel. Most of the time the ISP of the client will state if Nurse Delegation is required. (here are some examples/ but not limited to of when Nurse Delegation is required)

- The parent/guardian will be responsible for notifying Grow Developmental Disability Solutions immediately if there is any medication change (if the DSP is going to be handling any medication)

- Ensuring that any side effects or reactions are noted in the MAR.

- Monitoring Work Hours: Ensuring that the hours worked by the Direct Support Professional(s) (DSP) do not exceed those allocated in the Individualized Service Plan (ISP).
- Scheduling Oversight: Managing the scheduling of DSPs to prevent overlap and unauthorized extension of service hours, especially important when multiple DSPs are involved.
- Billing Awareness: Being mindful of the billing limitations and the necessity to align DSP working hours with what can be billed to avoid financial discrepancies with other agencies, please log into Wellskys "family room" to verify hours.
- Communication: Keeping open and clear communication with DSPs and the provider agency regarding any changes in scheduling or service needs to ensure compliance with the ISP.
- Contract Compliance: Understanding that failure to adhere to these responsibilities could result in the termination of the contract with the family, emphasizing the importance of strict compliance with the guidelines provided.
Team Training: Working with our Agency to train the DSP upon their first day working with the client
- Once support is found for the client listed above, we will train them on all the documents provided to us from you and the Service Coordinator.
- We ask for your support and willingness to complete 1-2 hours of hands-on training with the DSP on their first shift. We have found this yields the best results and maximizes the DSP's work effort and quality of care.
