Vocational Profile:Training and Submission

Bureau of Autism Services Lindy Mishler, MS

September 20, 2018

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Welcome to today’s training… Vocational Profile: Training and Submission processes. I am Lindy Mishler, one of the clinical consultants for the Bureau of Autism. And, I will be walking you through today’s information. Today’s training was originally completed in January of this year. So, if it looks familiar to some of you, that’s why. However, we wanted to update some of the content to ensure that it is up to date as well as provide a refresher to those of you who might still have some questions about this process. BAS recognizes that we have a number of skilled and experienced Vocational providers who have some wonderful experience with completing job assessment processes and writing good quality assessments. We are extremely fortunate to have you onboard with us as providers. However, there are certain requirements to completing this process to meet the standards and expectations that we have set out within the Adult Autism Waiver… so it’s extremely important that regardless of your agencies quality and experience, that this process is followed when completing this service for our participants.

RESOURCES

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Like most of the trainings we provide through BAS, there are resources that I would like to point out for today’s topic. Although I realize that today’s focus is on the TRAINING and SUBMISSION process of Voc. Profile, I still wanted to provide you with the additional resources that could answer other questions you might have outside of this specific topic. Because of this, I wanted to address a list of potential resources that could be beneficial to you as we spend time together today. My hope is that, although I might not be able to cover ALL of the answers to your questions (since today’s focus is on the training and submission of Voc. Profiles)… that I can direct you to the resources that CAN answer those questions you have that may fall outside of this.

Presentation Notes

There are a number of resources that BAS has developed to assist you all in developing a Vocational Profile during this assessment process, that meets the expectations we have set. Since there is a limit on the number of resources that I am able to attach on trainings, I put together a packet of resources for you from the resources updated onto MyODP. If you don’t have access to it within this trainings, please feel free to email the provider mailbox and request this document and we will be happy to get it over to you. Because they are in PDF format, this packet will not permit you to actually type into it. But, it will at least provide the materials so you can review them. If you are in need of them in the word format, you can locate them on myodp.org and navigating to the Employment/ Vocational resources.

http://www.myodp.org/


Presenter

Presentation Notes

I realize that MyODP is not the easiest to navigate at times, so Ill walk you through how to locate them quickly… So, first of course, you go to www.myodp.org


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Go to the TRAININGS tab at the top and a drop down list will appear


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Go to AUTISM

Presentation Notes

Select ADULT AUTISM PRGRAMS AAW/ ACAP


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Then scroll down on the next page and click on EMPLOYMENT/ VOCATIONAL TRAININGS


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And on the next page, you will need to click EMPLOYMENT/ VOCATIONAL SERVICES REQUIRED TRAINING


Presenter

Presentation Notes

This will open up the training page for this service.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

It’s the second section down, where you can find the actual resources of most of the materials we will be talking about today….


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And this is just a closer look of this…. You will then click on the AAW/ ACAP EMPLOYMENT/ VOCATIONAL RESOURCES link


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And it will finally get you to the page of resources…. So, as you can see, it is a lot of “breadcrumbs” to follow… but, once you get used to it, it is fairly easy to navigate.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

I also have a few Admin notices included in the resources packet as well. You hear us talk a lot about, “LISTSERVES” and the importance in signing up for that to get all of the information and updated released from BAS… well, you can also find those within the COMMUNICATIONS section within MyODP as well. So… to navigate to that section… you will need to go back to the main page…


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Click on the COMMUNICATIONS link at the top….


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And it will take you to this screen…


Presenter

Presentation Notes

My preferred way to search for these is to take the admin notice number and type it in here…. It will automatically bypass any other filter and bring up that specific document.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

OR… if you don’t know the number of the admin notice you are looking for… you ca simply click on the “Autism Services” link….


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And a list of the admin notices will come up for you to search through…


Presenter

Presentation Notes

OR… you can also search using specific filters to narrow those down as well…. So, a GREAT resource to know about, if you feel like you are not up to date with the communications BAS sends out OR if you are just wanting to locate the information that we will be talking about today.

Presentation Notes

This screen breaks the previous information down into the staff these resources were designed for. It aligns with what we just talked about, just presented in a different visual and shows the role that the materials were designed for… So, as an example, the Admin notice BAW 17-29 is designed for SCs, Career Planning providers as a whole as well as Vocational Profile Developers where Admin Notice # 16-48 is specifically written for SCs. … And so on. I don’t want to take the time to go over these in specific detail, but it can be a valuable resource for you to revisit later… And again… all of these resources are on the attached documents within the resources in the training.


BECOMING A QUALIFIED STAFF

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Now that we’ve looked at some resources, I want to really utilize the newest developed infographic to assist me in walking through the Training and Submission steps. As, it was really designed to capture the steps and nuances of this process as a whole.


NEWVoc. Profile

Process Infographic

Presenter

Presentation Notes

This is the New infographic we have recently re-designed, based off of the original training we did in January. This infographic will be available on MyODP and is also listed within the resources packet attached to today’s training. Using the information on this document, we will review the process of submitting the Vocational Profiles to BAS.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

To get us started, let’s take a look at the LEFT column of the infographic which is walking us through the steps of, “Becoming Qualified to do a Voc .Assessment”…. Or the Initial vocational Profile Qualification process. This LEFT column is what the provider will follow when the job assessor has NEVER completed the Vocational assessment process before and therfor, has never written a Vocational Profile for the Adult Autism Waiver…… (if they HAVE, then they will follow the right side, which we will get to later…)


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Before even starting this training process with your Job Assessor, you will of course want to ensure the staff is qualified to complete this service. This is where these infographics comes into play. Again, these are included within your resources packet and are also listed in the Resources section on MyODP for the Employment materials.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

After identifying a staff to complete this service, and ensuring that they are qualified, THE FIRST OFFICIAL STAGE in the Voc. Profile process IS TO COMPLETE THE TRAININGS: Remember, these ARE REQUIRED for anyone that will be completing the Vocational Assessment process through their agency and writing the Vocational Profiles. To get started with this, you will need to Navigate to www.MyODP.org (setting up your profile, if you have not done so yet… in order to get started with the training process…) Once you have your profile created, you will log into MyODP and scroll to Training> Autism> AAW/ ACAP> Employment/ Voc Trainings (that same path that we navigated through earlier…) Then, you need to Complete ALL of the training Modules (there are 6 of them) After watching the modules, You will then need to complete the Employment training Quiz. Of course, the staff will need to obtain a passing grade before moving to the next step….


Presenter

Presentation Notes

After passing the quiz, you will need to STOP. DO NOT submit a Voc. Profile yet! Wait... Because the The Voc. Profile needs to be the assessment completed on an actual participant. NOT a mock or fictitious participant. This is different from our other qualification processes… so, this is a very important step. If one IS submitted that is not the result of a true assessment process with an AAW participant, it will not be accepted and the staff will need to wait until the receive their first case for this service before submitting for certification.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Now… At this point, The Job Assessor has met the education and training requirements to complete this service… right? They passed the quiz on MyODP…. And, now their agency has been made aware that a participant in AAW has selected them as a provider for the Vocational Assessment service… THIS is when the staff moves onto the next step. WHEN YOUR AGENCY IS MADE AWARE THAT THEY WERE CHOSEN AS A PROVIDER… The agency will need to provide the name of the assessor to the SC The SC will: Complete a Critical Revision to add this service in, with your agency listed as the provider And will enter the name of the staff identified, within the comments/ contact box The service will then be approved and authorized for 90 days, once the staff has been confirmed to have met the training requirements


This needs to be submitted as a CRITICAL REVISION! NOT a General Update!

You will need to provide the name of the staff that will be completing the assessment PRIOR to actually going through the process.

SCs:

Providers:

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Im sure there is a few of you who are now scratching your heads, at the step I just reviewed. This is because this is a new process that is now being released with this training… with an admin notice soon to be released. The reason for this, is because we have noticed that there is a number of staff that have been completing this process without being certified to do so. One of the reasons, is because BAS is not always being triggered to complete a review of the Job assessment. Sometimes SCs are submitting them by a General Update into HCSIS. And, General Updates do not send alerts to BAS to trigger a review. This is why we are requesting SCs to submit these assessments via a Critical revision, and of course document the reason for this within the service notes. Another reason is because we are not being alerted of the staff completing the assessment until after it is completed. Therfore, There is a chance that the staff may be completing this process without ever watching the training modules. By obtaining the staff’s name, once the agency is chosen to complete this service… if will ensure that the provider is able to staff the service and hours while also putting the staff on BAS’s radar so we can follow them and ensure they complete the qualification and trainings process as outlined by BAS requirements.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And for you SCs on the training today, I would also like to draw your attention to the admin notice that specifically outline how to add all of the employment services into the ISP and all of the specifics with regards to them individually. Please remember that this process is VERY DIFFERENT from the previous way of entering in Voc. Profiles. (or as previously known… job assessments). So, it is extremely necessary that you make not of this so you are aware of how to move forward with this entry into HCSIS.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Now.. .after all of the previous steps are taken, the Job Assessor is ready to complete the process. I can NOT reiterate enough, the importance of printing out all of the materials and trainings for this service. Way to often, we have staff who are experiences in other programs, and feel their previous training and experiences qualify them to go through the AAW job assessment process without paying too much attention to our expectations. For the AAW service. When this occurs, even the most experienced and successful staff will not pass our Clinical review during the first submission because our expectations are quite different from other programs. So, PLEASE be sure when beginning and going through this process, that you follow the manner in which it is laid out within BAS’s trainings and materials . So, with all of that said, the Job Assessor will complete a thorough job assessment with the participant as outlined in our trainings and resources Then, they will need to take all of their data and information obtained through the Job assessment process and write up the Vocational Profile using the BAS template (again, located in MyODP). However, we made this pretty easy! We developed a Sample Voc profile as well as a Guidance for the Voc. Profile that tells you exactly what to put into each section. We have even posted the grading rubric we use when reviewing the assessment! So, please use these when writing your profile to ensure it is including all of the information needed. And again, you are to be putting all of this information onto the BAS Vocational Profile template.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

We cannot emphasize enough, the importance of reviewing the Vocational Profile prior to it being submitted. Some agencies actually have supervisors that review all of them and compare them to our resources and trainings. Most of the time, these are the providers that obtain approval and a passing grade at the first submission. However, if your agency does not have a staff person such as this, they I want to reiterate the importance of having the Job Assesory compare their profile to the sample, guidance, and clinical checklist prior to submission to ensure it meets expectations. - Once they feel confident this is the case, they can submit it within MyODP for review. Again, you can follow the screen shots we looked at earlier on in the training if you are in need of additional guidance on how to do this.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Once it is submitted into MyODP, one of the clinical staff from BAS will be responsible for reviewing it. They use the same Clinical Checklist listed within the resources to do this. We want to ensure you have access to this, so you know exactly what to expect from this review process. Once Clinical completes the review and submits the grade into MyODP, the staff will receive a notification email from MyODP If this is the staff’s FIRST SUBMISSION: - And the profile is approved, the staff is considered certified and is able to submit all future Voc. Profiles directly to the SC, and does not need to go through MyODP. If it is Rejected, the staff needs to revise the Voc. Profile per feedback and resubmit in MyODP. If the need to revise and resubmit… and it is their SECOND SUBMISSION: If its Approved, same as above… the staff is considered certified and is able to submit all future Voc. Profiles directly to the SC, and does not need to go through MyODP. However, If it is Rejected again, The staff will need to Retake all of the employment trainings modules again… retake the quiz… and submit a new Vocational Profile to be graded by BAS. Note that the staff does not have to wait for another participant to redo this process. It can be on the same participant… they simply need to re-take all of the trainings again.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Once the staff receive the passing grade for the Vocational Profile, they will need to email the Vocational Profile to the SC for entry into HCSIS. [ENTER] SCs- remember to print out this admin notice so you know where to enter the Vocational Assessment information. Years ago, this information used to be put directly into the Non Medical Evaluation screen, but the expectations are slightly different now. So, please be sure you are following this ad Administrative notice when you are entering this information into HCSIS. - And of course, just a reminder that the Voc Profiles need to be maintained in the participant’s file for monitoring purposes.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

I really can not emphasize enough that Each individual staff needs to be certified in order to write Voc. Profiles! must go through this process of trainings, quiz, approval status of Voc. Profile If BAS doesn’t catch this during this submission process, it will be caught during the provider monitoring. And we definitely don’t want anyone to have to pay back any funds for completing a service by an unqualified staff. So, be sure your agency has a good internal process up front, to track this process.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Now that we have reviewed the process of becoming QUALIFIED to do Voc Assessment, let’s take a look at the RIGHT column of the infographic which is walking us through the steps of, “Submitting Vocational Profiles” AFTER the staff has already been qualified. You will see there are SIMILAR steps… but, less then the previous stage since there is no need to go through MyODP since the staff will now already by qualified. Again… these steps we will be reviewing, are for AFTER the staff has received an “approval” status from the clinical rep through MYODP and is considered a QUALIFIED and CERTIFIED staff to complete the vocaitional assessment service and write Voc. Profiles.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Again, I want to make sure this is VERY CLEAR… THIS PROCESS will not be able to occur until the staff has submitted their FIRST Vocational Profile into My ODP and has received a passing grade on their submission. Once they are certified as a result of this, this process will then need to be followed for any Vocational Assessments… SO… anyone they complete AFTER that initial one. So… at this point, the Job Assessor has passed their first submission in MyODP… and now has just received ANOTHER participant to do another Vocational Assessment with The provider has given the CERTIFIED STAFFs name to the SC to enter into the service details screen in HCSIS… BAS has confirmed that this staff IS CERTIFIED and is able to complete the job assessment And the service is approved and authorized for 90 days.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

The job assessor will do the exact same thing that they did in the left side of this column (that we just went over…) Even though they already completed the trainings and passed the MyODP submission, they will still want to print out all of the materials and trainings for this service. Using these materials as reminders and guidance to this process, they will complete a thorough job assessment with the participant as outlined in our trainings and resources Then, they will need to take all of their data and information obtained through the Job assessment process and write up the Vocational Profile using the BAS template (again, located in MyODP). And double check it before submitting to the SC, using the Sample Voc profile written by BAS, as well as a Guidance for the Voc. Profile Clinical Checklist or grading rubric. Going through these materials and double checking the work they have completed, is a way that the provider can complete their own quality check on the Vocational Profiles to ensure they meet BAS expectations. Again, these will be reviewed during provider monitorings, so it is best to ensure they meet BAS expectations prior to BAS discovering that they don’t at that time. And again, you are to be putting all of this information onto the BAS Vocational Profile template.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And just like the previous column… we ask that you as the provider- are reviewing the quality and content of the profiles before actually submitting them to the SC for entry into HCSIS. Compare the develop Vocational profile to the BAS sample, guidance document, and clinical checklist prior to submission to ensure it meets expectations.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Once you feel confident this is the case, email the Vocational Profile to the SC and they will enter the information into HCSIS on your behalf. ** AGAIN SCS…. Remember to do this via a Critical Revision so BAS is triggered to review the information.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Here is that screen shot again for the SCs… just a reminder to follow the admin notice when entering this information into HCSIS…


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Once they are submitted into HCSIS, BAS will review the content. However, they will not be sending out Clinical Checklists back as a result. Since the expectation is to have the Vocational Profiles maintained in the participant’s files, the detailed Vocational Assessment will be reviewed for quality during BAS monitorings.


Review of the documents discussed…

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Since this training is about the Voc. Profile, I only thought it would be logical to include a small section about the actual development of the Voc. Profile. The intent is not to go over a detailed, “how to”, as there are already specific trainings designed- in a lot more depth- then I could during our time here today. However, I wanted to bring a few resources to your attention so you realize the valuable information that is at your fingertips during this process that can sometimes be quite overwhelming.


Voc. Profile Template

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Unlike before, there is a MANDATED Voc. Profile template that NEEDS to be utilized in order to write/ submit the Voc. Profiles. PLEASE utilize this new format… if you submit a Voc. Profile on your agency’s own format, it will be rejected and the expectation is that it is re-written on this format and resubmitted. So, please save yourself from this additional work and ensure you are utilizing this new mandated format.


Voc. Profile Guidance

Presenter

Presentation Notes

In order to assist you in knowing BAS’s expectations of what goes where within this Voc. Profile, we put together a very detailed Guidance document explaining exactly this. We recommend when writing your Voc. Profile that you also print this out, and read each section to ensure you are including the information specified, as it was designed and intended. Please do this so you do not miss any sections or accidently do not add in certain details that are necessary.


Voc. Profile Example

Presenter

Presentation Notes

We ALSO have designed an example for you to use when writing your own Voc. Profile as well. We always hesitate in making examples, because there are always nuances that can make something appropriate to one example as apposed to another. So, please keep this in mind when using it to write your own. Of course we know, every person is different… so, there may be a reason why some information is okay to enter into someone assessment and not okay to enter in another person’s assessment. Please use your best clinical judgement to determine this type of appropriateness and utilize this example as another resource to assist you in meeting BAS expectations.


Voc. Profile Clinical Review

Presenter

Presentation Notes

I wanted to show you the clinical review we use when reviewing the Voc. Profiles….. All of our BAS checklists are listed on MyODP for the providers to have access to. We never want what we are looking for… to be a surprise to any of you! So, when writing any kind of plan, be sure to consult the BAS checklists to ensure they are meeting the standards we look for.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

The grading we use is a WEIGHTED rubric…. So, eACH SECTION CARRIES A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE For this page, you can see that the Demographics and Intro section count for 10% of the total grade. In the yellow, under the section, we are to check off if the section MET the standards outlined as well as if they did not. If we have NO checked, that means something listed underneath in the corresponding section is missing…


EXAMPLE (Expectations not met):

BAS Guidance:

BAS Sample:

Presenter

Presentation Notes

As an example to reviewing the Demographics section and Intro to a Voc. Profile… I wanted to use one that I recently reviewed. When reviewing the content for this example, I noticed there was no summary for the Desired Vocational Outcome. But, if the provider would have pulled reviewed the Guidance and Sample when putting together the summary, they would have been able to clearly see the expectations for this section and realized that they had missed it completely.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Here is the second page of the clinical checklists… as you can see here, Prior OVR activities accounts for 10% of the score and Historical Employment and Educational Experience also accounts for 10%



BAS Guidance:

BAS Sample:

Presenter

Presentation Notes

One of the sections being reviewed for this section is the Prior OVR activities. By looking at this example, you can see that the provider DID check that the participant reviewed Job finding and On- jo support through OVR. However, If they would have reviewed our Guidance and sample, they would have seen that we also expect a summary of what had occurred and OVR’s findings as a result of those tasks completed. Which, they did not include.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

This section pertains to the indirect data collecting methods used during the assessment process and accounts for 15% of the total grade.



BAS Guidance: BAS Sample:

Presenter

Presentation Notes

As you can see here, the provider listed that they used their own organizations job assessment interview tool and collected record information via school transcripts and OCR paperwork. But, there is nothing specific related to the tools used to provide an idea of the information they collected in order to analyze his skills, needs, and desired… right? So, looking at this example, we really have no idea how legit the tools are that they used. There is no justification for the data collected. Right?


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Here is the Direct data collection method, accounting for another 15% of the assessment scoring…



BAS Guidance:

BAS Sample:

Presenter

Presentation Notes

And very similar to the indirect data, the information documented under direct data does not provide any type of justification as to the legitimacy of the work that was completed. It was very general, did not include any type of data, did not specify the tasks he completed or the amount of time he was at the situation assessment for… along with other specifics that are necessary to justify the time spent on the assessment. Additionally, there was only one listed (where like to see three or more). A lot of information could have been used to improve this section, if they would have consulted the guidance and sample documents.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

Assessment results, are of course- where the assessor presents their findings of the assessment… which is the meat of the profile. So, this is 20% of the review.



Presenter

Presentation Notes

Here is an example of a recent summary I received. At a quick glance, it may not look too bad. However, if you look closer, particularly comparing it to the sample and guidance, you will see a great deal of information is missing. Since this- again- should be a number of pages as a result of the data findings… I did not have enough room on the screen to compare it to the guidance and sample. However, I encourage you all to take a look yourselves to fully understand the amount of information that was missed or overlooked.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And then… again… the second part of the meat- and really the final thoughts on the data analysis – is the recommendations to move forward with this individual.



BAS Guidance:

BAS Sample:

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Here is an example of the THEMES section in the recommendations section. As you can see… there are 2 out of 3 themes listed… with only 2 ideal jobs listed underneath. The first issue with this is that this only leave 4 potentials to explore. We realize for more rural communities… the places to explore may be limited… but you really should be exhausting all of the opportunities possible. Not to mention, the items listed here did not even align with the job trial completed (these are cooking and baking themes and the job trial was a janirotial position). So, a lot of things that really were not executed well with this list of recommendations.


Presenter

Presentation Notes

And lastly, the total score out of 100…. 80* and above is passing and 79% and below means they did not achieve the mastery threshold and revisions are needed. So… I hope overall, this provides you with some idea of expectations we are looking for when reviewing these submissions. Againg, we have worked very hard to develop materials and trainings that can be applicable to you all going through this process. So, please use them! But, if you are in need of additional guidance, you can always email the provider mailbox.


How to ensure you have all the information to do your job as a provider• Have you visited the ASERT website (www.paautism.org)?

– Did you create profiles for the participants you support?– Did you sign up to receive the ASERT monthly newsletter?– Do you follow ASERT on facebook or twitter?
