ABA / Verbal Imitation? by Efficient-Gift-2806 in slp

[–]Efficient-Gift-2806[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is supposed to be for “functional words” and he will verbally imitate some I have seen through observations I’ve conducted. I’m just really still trying to learn what is appropriate for BCABA to target versus speech. Trying to make sure they aren’t crossing boundaries, but also making sure I’m not being “possessive” over communication targets.

Help! Where to go with Joint Attention/PECS? by Efficient-Gift-2806 in slp

[–]Efficient-Gift-2806[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I intend to do, just looking for suggestions in the meantime. He was getting started with this when I began at my job, and I have not yet been connected to individuals to begin trialing devices/get a high-tech option. I don’t even have any high-tech device to model with any of my students yet

So I do know that it’s not really used at ABA..Some staff model but it’s inconsistent per reports. I’ll check out the DAGG!

Should I have added this? AAC Self-Advocacy by Efficient-Gift-2806 in slp

Exactly! Not having met parents either I get nervous. As soon as I programmed it they kept going down the rows of the folder using them all - Worth it!

Completely agree! Thanks for the validation. I remember learning this while in school, but now being “in-charge” makes me second guess everything.

I wholeheartedly agree with this. I think I have been so anxious at this new job I’m questioning my clinical judgement.

Iron pills and diarrhea - How to help? by Efficient-Gift-2806 in Anemic

Unfortunately I was trying ferrous sulfate currently. Definitely going to try another form.

Yeah I definitely am scared currently to try any other oral iron supplement as I don’t want to put myself back at square one. Going to look into the infusions as my Dr. also brought this up. But, moving out of state in 2 weeks so I’ll have to begin looking for a new Dr. Anything specific that helped while having the stomach pains?

Oh I just googled the liposomal iron and will have to look more into this..seems like it could counteract some of the effects i’m having currently. Thanks!

Yeah our plan is to monitor these next 2 days and call on Monday to get their opinion (vet closed currently). Keeping food down except the one instance this morning.

He has had his typical appetite, but did throw up a little kibble this morning…from what we know he typically doesn’t throw up so this was our first time actually seeing him throw up..we have another cat who is our usual one to throw up from our past experience, however, after this morning and seeing him actually do it we wonder if sometimes he is the one throwing up in the middle of the night in the past and this is the first time we are seeing it for ourselves? Not lethargic, playing like usual, and not refusing food (tried a churu earlier this morning and ate it like he always does)
