Can the SCERTS Model be implemented by a professional who works in private practice, or is it only a team model?
The SCERTS Model works best as a team approach, as we believe that input and decision making by family members and professionals from a variety of disciplines best addresses a child’s needs in everyday activities. The SCERTS Model can be implemented by a professional who is not a part of a school team; however, greater efforts would need to be made to coordinate efforts with other service providers and family members.
