Developing Functional Communication
Communication goals are individualized to the person receiving services. Treatment may focus on requesting wants and needs, expressing preferences, answering questions, following directions, increasing spontaneous communication, or using an appropriate communication system more independently.
Independence During Daily Routines
Home-based ABA provides opportunities to teach independence during naturally occurring routines. Depending on individual needs, treatment may address dressing, hygiene, meals, morning and bedtime routines, completing activities, transitions, leisure skills, and participating more independently in family life.
Helping Skills Carry Over
Learning a skill during therapy is only part of the goal. Treatment also focuses on helping individuals use skills with different people and during different routines. BCBAs monitor progress and adjust programming to promote greater independence and generalization over time.
Parent & Caregiver Training
Parents and caregivers are active members of the treatment team. Pivotal ABA provides caregiver training so families understand the strategies being used during treatment and can support communication, behavior, and independence throughout everyday routines. Parent training may also be provided through telehealth when appropriate.
