CSP Services
Service Planning Coordinators are embedded in three agencies:
- One Kids Place Children’s Treatment Centre
- HANDS Thefamilyhelpnetwork.ca
- Simcoe Muskoka Family Connexions
Each Service Planning Coordinator works with your child/youth and family’s service team.
All Coordinated Service Planning teams are committed to working together with community partners in a seamless way, providing you with a clear point of contact for all the services you are receiving and to create a Coordinated Service Plan that identifies what is important to your family.
A service planning coordinator will work with your child and family to:
-
Identify your child’s strengths and needs.
-
Identify what would really make a difference over the next little while – that is, getting clear about your vision and priorities.
-
Make appropriate referrals if other supports or services are indicated.
-
Set up team meetings that bring together your child’s team of professionals.
-
Develop a coordinated service plan that makes sure everyone is working together.
As a result of Coordinated Service Planning, families and children/youth with multiple and/or complex special needs:
- Have access to a Single Plan of Care that is responsive to their goals, strengths and needs
- Know who is accountable for developing and monitoring their child’s Single Plan of Care and have a clear point of contact
- Can be assured that service providers and educators are working toward a set of common goals driven by the family’s vision, identified in the plan.
- Know that services will be coordinated using family centred care principles.
For Service Providers, this means:
- Working toward a common set of service goals identified in the child’s or youth’s Single Plan of Care
- Taking a more holistic view of children with complex and/or multiple needs
- Avoiding duplicated services
- Having a clear process for connecting with other service partners, including autism, health providers, educators, mental health teams and others in the development of the Single Plan of Care
- Identification of a Single Plan of Care Coordinator, who will coordinate services and act as a single point of contact.
