Must TSS workers have only one overall supervisor who will oversee the TSS workers cases?
Response: For consistency, the agency that employs the TSS worker should ensure that it employs and assigns one supervisor who provides the required ongoing supervision of the TSS worker. The BSC or MT for a particular child is not the supervisor of the TSS worker(s) for the child. The BSC or MT will provide clinical consultation as appropriate, but does not become the TSS supervisor by doing so. BSCs or MTs may be TSS supervisors because they independently meet the qualifications for a supervisor, not because they provide BSC or MT services to the child.
