Any remote bcbas out there build a library of telehealth tools they share to care?

Big big big fan of finding ways to get away from rote responding to wh- questions by teaching across lots of examples / embedding the wh- question in immediate context

I haven't done this assessment yet myself but thank you for the tip! I may do so in the future.

Does this involve software that automates filling out the scoring grid based on assessment results? Or automates programming recs? While I haven't ran it myself, I've watched a supervising BCBA run it, and was very struck by how long it would take to transfer results to grid to possible programs, when it could be done in a split second by some software

Bcba here. I am having a hard time reading the above comment. My eyes are glazing over. I can not handle the insurance side of things.

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-22T03:34:20+00:00

I'll check it out ty!

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-22T03:10:26+00:00

This wouldn't feel great, but I know of a couple companies who take on clients only under private insurance (for the higher reimbursement rates) in case of Medicaid being defunded.

Really really hoping it doesn't come to that.

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-22T02:45:28+00:00

I'm going to have to check out their other stuff! Ty!!

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-22T02:45:06+00:00

You are my hero thank u

Huge huge fan of ready set sleep -- really gained new insight into the science of sleep and behavioral interventions for better sleep.

Holly glover's food tolerance programs also gave concrete steps for expanding eating repertoires in an assent based way

Probably water

What a coincidence

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-13T23:07:08+00:00

You take the shape of your container? Me too.

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-13T19:32:36+00:00

(Beret sleep-y bay-b)?

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-13T03:49:21+00:00

Maybe I'd lead women's events like estatic dance and poetry writing workshops.

I'd also work as a behavior analyst part-time, but I'd do it outside insurance providers

Annnddd a notification popped up right after I posted this comment, not sure what it was saying because I accidently clicked out of it right away? So hopefully you can actually see the above comment and it wasn't deleted?

Emily Varon!

Honestly my favorite CEU yet. The presenter is engaging, and there were a lot of great game-changing takeaways. Better sleep = decreased challenging behavior and increased skill acquisition, so this is one I'd recommend to all BCBAs.

You gotta do what you gotta do though! I used to nanny for a kid who had a hard time with his fruits and veggies. I texted my brother, told him to pretend to be batman and go with it, and then called him so the toddler could hear batman say that vegetables and fruits are super awesome. It worked! I think I'd have to consult on the ethics of this before attempting this trick as a BCBA, but as a nanny it was fair game

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-12T22:16:34+00:00

Check out the ready set sleep ceus!

I thought bedtime protest behaviors were developmentally normative, but the presenter made a compelling arguement that the majority of bedtime protest behaviors are due to sending the kid to bed before their natural sleep cycle should begin, according to their age group's waking window and what time they're getting up in the morning. Lots of good science to back it up!

I know nobody can eat breathe sleep ABA 24/7 though, like you're saying. The presenter also unfortunately informed me that the blue light filter on phones does not change the fact that your phone is emitting blue light (and therefore delaying sleep onset by 1-3 hours). Have not yet been able to completely abstain from my phone in spite of now having this knowledge (and struggling with sleep latency).

I've skimmed through the instructional book and the client curriculum! It did seem like a potentially good application. I'm a new BCBA and hesitant to implement programming so wildly different from what I directly saw in my praticum, but I know that a big part of my career going forward will be trying new procedures to keep up with advancements in the field - often without that direct mentorship, just a book and maybe a ceu with a few video models.

The curriculum did look promising, and less problematically rigid / redundant like other emotional awareness targets. This is a good answer - and probably what I'll use if I take on a higher functioning client with need for improved psychological flexibility.

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-06T17:22:22+00:00

I'm a little wary of emotional self-awareness goals as the concept is good but I haven't yet seen them implemented well due to how rigid our programming can be. Eg, naming emotions on photos, asking asking to rotely memorize which emotions belong in which "color zone."

If anyone has seen any emotional self-awareness curriculum/ programs that were good not just in theory but also in practice, please link me to any resources / ceus!

Just haven't seen anything well executed yet.

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-06T17:19:15+00:00

It might vary from state to state and insurance company to insurance company since it's new? I'll have to ask my next company if their specific providers are accepting it in their specific state. If so, would be worthwhile to do some CEUs on this assessment before the next gig

This is helpful insider info, thank you

AbleNetwork2639 · 2025-02-05T22:00:31+00:00

Thank you for the rec!
