Coordinating Communities for Healthy Development
The goal of the CCHD project is to create and institutionalize a feedback communication loop between clinical providers and early intervention and preschool special education providers to benefit children with developmental delays or socio/emotional or behavioral health concerns.

Before you Begin
1. Review the materials in the toolkit, especially the roles and responsibilities, and how to work with clinics.
2. Recruit someone who also works within the early intervention/ preschool education system to work with you.

How to Start
1.Identify team members to recruit
2.Reach out through established
relationships
3.Share materials
4.Begin meeting
![Page 7: Communities Coordinating for Healthy Development](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070417/568152dd550346895dc0f999/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Identifying Team Members• Clinic Staff
– Look for a champion, someone who will support the project at their clinic, and recruit onto the team
– Start by identifying clinics serving children in your area, and reaching out to inform them about the project and inviting them to join the team
• Local public health or agencies doing childhood screening• Parents• Other agencies involved in referral process
– Who are you currently sending referrals to?• Other providers of early childhood services such as Head Start,
ECFE• Clinicians providing medical services to your patients – OT, PT,
Mental Health

After you’ve identified potential team members…
1. Contact them, talk about the goals of the project, see if
they’re interested in meeting to discuss it or have ideas of
other people who should be included.
2. Be open to varying length of commitment – this project
may lead to long term connections, but at the same time
some team members may only be able to be involved as
long as it takes to implement the feedback cycle.
3. Share materials and resources.
4. Invite them to a launch meeting.

Suggestions for Launch Meeting
• Introductions and roles in current referral and service system in the community
• Discussion of goals for CCHD team and CCHD process
• Review of materials to learn (other trainings or toolkit)
• Set up next steps (start meeting regularly, using change model, etc.)
![Page 10: Communities Coordinating for Healthy Development](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070417/568152dd550346895dc0f999/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Model for Improvement
The team can work together to create a system for implementing the CCHD changes, or you can use the Model For Improvement. The model leads the team through testing out small changes toward big goals, in a Plan-Do-Study-Act process.More information on the Model is found in the CCHD toolkit.
![Page 11: Communities Coordinating for Healthy Development](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070417/568152dd550346895dc0f999/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Guiding the Team through the Process• Meet regularly• Identify a way to know when your team has
completed the project• At the beginning, learn how the current system
works, to identify where to approach changes• Work through modifying the tools to be useful to all
the team members• Ask the early intervention/ preschool special
education providers to start sending referral feedback forms
• Track the responses through clinic EMR• Report back to team on progress• Address issues and barriers• Add team members when needed or available

Creating a Workflow as a Team
Creating a work flow diagram may help your CCHD team examine all the aspects of the referral feedback loop and be able to identify areas where changes are needed. Here are examples of a few work flows that CCHD teams created in the past.
![Page 13: Communities Coordinating for Healthy Development](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070417/568152dd550346895dc0f999/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Early Intervention/ Preschool Special Education Referral Report Workflow
Clinic sends referral directly to early
intervention office at school district
Clinic sends referral to the Help Me Grow
state online system
HMG determines appropriate district,
sends them the referral
District receives referral, assigns to staff for evaluation
Evaluators contact
family and set up
meeting
Family refuses evaluation or is
unable to be contacted, referral is
closed
Student is determined to be
eligible for services
Student comes in for evaluation, consent to
send results back to clinic is requested.
Family accepts, service plan is
created, student
begins to receive services
Family refuses services, referral is
closed
Student is determined to be ineligible for services, is
given alternative resources, possibly signed up for Follow Along Program
Child visits clinic, completes a
screening tool with a score that triggers a referral
District sends this information back to
the clinic
District WorkflowReferral Report Opportunity

Sample Internal Referral FeedbackWorkflow for Screening at Clinic
Nurse or other clinic staff score the questionnaire and give results to the child’s practitioner
Family arrives for visit and either gives check in staff the completed questionnaire or completes one in the lobby
Prior to office visit, clinic administrative staff send screening questionnaire to family
Practitioner determines if a referral is needed, notifies the family and asks clinic staff to make the referral
Referral is made to Help Me Grow (state referral system)
Help Me Grow funnels referral to appropriate school district for early intervention or preschool special education evaluation
Family consent to report back to clinic is obtained
Early intervention or preschool special education program staff send referral report form back to clinic via fax
Administrative staff receive report by fax, give to practitioner
Practitioner reviews report, highlights any issues, and gives it to care coordinator
Support staff files in medical record
Care coordinator reviews report to identify any follow up needs to act on and gives it to support staff
Clinics will vary in which staff will perform which of these functions. As part of the CCHD project, it will be important to identify these staff and engage them in the improvement process.

Clinic/Community Workflow for Early Intervention and Preschool Special Education Referrals
Follow Along Program•Tracks children with potential concerns•Sends both a monthly list of enrollees and abnormal screening reports to clinic
Developmental Screening Coordinator (DSC) (part of clinic staff)•Enters reports and consent forms into medical records•Sends electronic update messages to providers•Responds to information requests from community partners (when consent is provided)
Clinic: Primary Care Provider•Reviews reports received from DSC•Conducts screenings with patients•Sends recommendations to DSC to follow up or call family
Early Childhood Screening•Screens children for concerns•Screening forms are sent to the clinic, along with consent forms
School District Early Intervention or Preschool Special Education Staff•Receives referrals from DSC and conducts evaluations with children•When an evaluation is completed, and the child is a clinic patient who has consented to share information, sends a report back to the DSC

Completing and Spreading the Work
• Complete when you’ve met your team goals.
• Celebrate!• Tell others about your
work, to encourage spreading the CCHD project to other communities, clinics, and families.

Modifications: Enhancements to the project that might attract clinics
• Health Care Homes/ Medical Home Model: completing the CCHD project can help your clinic prepare for HCH certification in MN. Contact information for HCH is found on the CCHD website.
• MOC 4 Project: The first round of CCHD projects applied for and received MOC 4 certification from the Academy of Physicians. Data run charts used in that process are available in the toolkit.
