If the vision, hearing and nutrition screening are all normal, what should be written in the “needs” column?
Please write “No Needs Identified.” • For children evaluated for Part C, can the evaluation report be attached to this page? If all the information required in this section is included in the evaluation report, then you can write “see attached” for the initial assessment. However, ongoing assessment information must be written on the form at the next review. • Can the SC incorporate information from the reports he/she receives from other agencies? Yes. Service providers can provide pertinent assessment information to the SC who is responsible for compiling all information into the IFSP. Any available information about the child is important to include because it will provide a more complete picture. • Do we still complete this section for a child with a medical diagnosis? Yes. Section III D must be completed for all children. • Can parent report be used for vision and hearing screening for Part C children? No, written documentation is required.
