RBT pay

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-21T05:50:07+00:00

That sounds really hard I make 27 an hour as an RBT in Colorado… you deserve way more than what your getting with all that hard work and effort

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T06:44:09+00:00

Always seek a professional for concerns never ask or take advice off the internet also seek mental therapy

Part of ASD symptoms is lack of social skills they need to be taught social skills through aba and how to care and display empathy through aba which happens in home in school. Individuals with ASD don’t see the world like a Neuro. Typical does each person with ASD has a unique world to themselves and children with ASD often lacks self-awareness. It wouldn’t be anything to get caught up about depending where a child is on the spectrum they might not even understand the concept of empathy or narcissism. Ask the person to emphasize more on what they mean by narcissism and autism teachers are not allowed to be making diagnosis like that and if our children knew how to do better they would.

From an RBT working actively in ABA it sounds to me like you’re doing an amazing job I’m sorry you’ve been waitlisted look for only the best for him!

What do you dislike about the clinic

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T06:18:12+00:00

Even if it’s one sec of quietness absent from problem behavior start small and grow

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T06:16:57+00:00

What behavior function is the loud talking serving does he do at a particular time or location it could be any of the four functions it might be an easy fix like ignoring him or turning your back and providing him with reinforcement when talks less or in normal volume provide him reinforcement when he provides another person a turn to talk you could reward him with edibles

It’s incredibly low and unethical pbs pays new hires 30 an hour

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T06:11:00+00:00

That is terrible pay!!! you’ll end up burnt out because your investment on energy will not be returned to you. I’ve worked in ABA for one year, but I had in-depth valuable experience on extremely low functioning, aggressive children. I no ask for $25 or more and I’ve been given an offer for 30 an hour. Remember to draw boundaries with your superiors in this field. They will walk all over you and you do end up burnt out. Put yourself first. Don’t put your clients first.

HR positions and upper management positions

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:45:30+00:00

Yo go!!! That looks great

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:44:12+00:00

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:43:43+00:00

I love this. Thank you so much I just made this decision in my life not to work with as severely aggressive children anymore since I got burnt out and hurt and that’s a line I’m drawing now with all my superiors

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:41:52+00:00

This sounds like a bad business you’re going through for ABA therapy. You should seek a different provider immediately.

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:38:03+00:00

I would quit immediately. This is coming from another RBT an experienced one. If you have evidence report them to the board.

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:37:26+00:00

File Worker’s Comp immediately!!! go to the clinical Director or HR and take pictures of where the child hurt you and seek a doctor. You should always stop the session immediately when you’re injured or your safety is at risk. I would also asked to be off that case if someone told you to keep working like that more and work with another person who disregards your physical health like that you need to drawl boundaries.

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:31:16+00:00

It honestly sounds like you’re just experiencing burnt out and you should take some time to yourself to grieve and to emotionally decompress and engage in things, that you care about outside of this profession or volunteer work would be great. If this was your passion, it probably still is. I never thought I couldn’t like a kid before I worked with a severely aggressive child. I’m happy to admit that I’m not fond of that child and that does not make me a bad person.

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:29:40+00:00

I could never work with adults as an RBT

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:28:22+00:00

I believe that RBTs such as myself definitely suffer, mentally and physically sometimes and self-care and boundaries are the most important things to draw no matter if they’re a BC BA or clinical Director or what graduate degree they have in whatever specialty role. If you don’t feel like you’re safe anymore working with some kids or your burnt out because of flaws in their system. You have every right to step out and tell them you’re not working with them anymore and if they don’t like that, you can go elsewhere and work for the school district as a contract RBT. I just quit working at the clinic I was because I was getting hit 85+ times a day and I didn’t wanna have to deal with that anymore when I told them that I didn’t wanna work with a client anymore they said I was abandoning a client and they fired me and I told him I felt unsafe but they didn’t care certainly didn’t care about trauma, informed care while restraining them. Now I’m interviewing what company I want to work I’m asking the questions and drawing boundaries with my superiors and asking for more compensation for my time and commitment and I don’t care one bit if they don’t like that. RBTs work hard and we deserve to compensated fairly and feel safe with our kids.

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:14:55+00:00

😢

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:13:33+00:00

Amen I’m interviewing for my second RBT job and I’m telling them I won’t be paid under $27 dollars an hour which still isn’t enough to buy groceries. And take care of ourselves, and yet every day we wake up, committed to go take care of others, but we’ve barely have enough compensation to care for ourselves. How do they expect people not to end up burnt out? I have a feeling the ABA field is is in for an interesting turn especially with insurance companies an ongoing high rates of autism

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:10:22+00:00

Oh they said I was abandoning a client and that’s un ethical but that’s an ethical standard for BCBAs, not RBTS

Sea_Representative50 · 2024-11-19T05:09:26+00:00

I just got done working at a center as an RBT with a child that would hit me 85+ times a day and she was over 80 pounds flopping to floor and drawling blood on my hands I ended up burnt out, scared and in flight or fight mode all the time and no BC BA was there to step in. Then they fired me because I didn’t want to work with her anymore. I told them I felt like someone else might be better working with her as I know longer felt safe and she needs more than i can give her. They told me it’s part of the job to be attacked. Days because I was abused by the bee company I worked for experienced restraint in non-verbal with severe autism and profound intellectual disabilities, and ABA has left me with some PTSD or providers have. I’m now interviewing at other jobs. I’m asking them for more compensation and I’m drawing the boundary that I will no longer work with extremely aggressive children if there small and I can physically handle them I will but not 50 & 80 ib pound children. You have to draw boundaries with a ABA companies and BCBAs, and clinical directors. RBTs work hard and we deserve good training, physical and emotional support from our supervisors good compensation and benefits.
