Student is placed on RR and 8hr protocol.
RR: AL, all bags, lace up shoes, dark clothes are confiscated, they get a 0 in engagement for the duration of the protocol, off campus restriction until removed by therapist
8hr: AL, not points in engagement and social skills for the duration of the protocol, must process with a coach to get off
I am getting sick ....eeek. I do not think I am going to be able to make it to work tomorrow. What should I do?
Text shift lead for your shift EARLY (day before if possible, as soon as you know you won't be able to work).
Find coverage ASAP
If unable to find coverage, rub some dirt in it... the reality is we are a treatment facility. You are required for ratio unless you are vomiting. Wear a mask.
This student can respond in one of two ways to dysregulation. If the concern is about peers, this student will often isolate and withdraw from social interaction. If the concern has to do with executive functioning, nonpreferred activities or undesired outcome the student will become verbally aggressive. Who's that pokemon?

Step 1: Call your shift lead or the home manager if on shift! This is not a text!
Step 2: Shift lead/ home manager calls shift supervisor

Step 4: CIRT call takes place with all involved
Step 5: shift lead and coaches put corresponding information in the students chat
Step 6: shift lead or coach contacts home manager with a text summary of events.

Explain the differences between self harm, suicide watch and continuous observation.
(AL, bathroom protocol, pocket checks and off campus)
Self harm: a student has an intention or is likely to harm themselves without intent to end their life. Will have an AL that counts for ratio, frequent pocket checks, bathroom door is closed but must count, can go off campus if ratio allows it and are following AL
Suicide watch: A student has expressed suicidal ideation without a plan or intent to act. will have an AL that counts for ratio, frequent pocket checks, bathroom door is closed but must count, can go off campus if ratio allows it and are following AL. Therapist will evaluate student once every 24hrs
Continuous observation: A student has both a plan and intent to act to end their life or cause debilitating injury. Staff is 1:1 with the student (does not count towards ratio), bathroom door must stay open and continuous contact, pocket checks and room search will take place. Student cannot go off campus for any reason.
True or false: I should check my work email daily.
TRUE!!!!! You are responsible for all information emailed to you.
I start talking to peers relentlessly when I am dysregulated. I have a tendency to justice seek and want things to be fair for my preferred peers. Who's that pokemon?
